Dear Miss Manners:
My friends want me to join in on a game of tag, but I am too worn out to play. What should I do?
Klapst
Cher Klapst,
Gently explain to your friends that you are presently just too exhausted to expend any physical effort for the time being, but that you will be more than happy to play with them after you have gotten sufficient rest.

Get the klapstmug. Refers to da "ideal" performance --- i.e., starting right up with just a brief cranking --- when firing up your car's engine; said perfect start sounds something like a famous baseball-player's name: "Carl-Yastrzemski --- VROOM!"
I imagine that some folks night find it a little odd to have a car's crank-and-catch sounds described as a "sports-star start", but I doubt that "The Great Yaz" would mind all that much, especially since said onomatopoeia description refers to a positive and welcome sound.

Get the demonitizationmug. Fillmore: How 'bout some organic fuel, Man?
Lightning McQueen: Ell Passo on that; thanks heaps anyway, though.

Get the Ell Passomug. Derogatory term used by regular working-class folks when sarcastically referring to a "yupscale" shopping-thoroughfare with pricey stores that sell absurdly expensive wristwatches and other ridiculously-extravagant merchandise.
I always shop at Family Dollar and Goodwill whenever possible --- "Ell Passo" on Fifth Avenue and other such bulovards!

Get the bulovardmug. Practicing safe sex by wrapping yourself in a blanket so that fellow humans can't access your guy/girlie-junk.
The term "blanket condomnation" can also be a sarcastic term for the preposterous notion that you won't get preggo or contract an STD if you and the other person crawl under a blanket before you "do it", instead of just copulating "out in the open".

Get the blanket condomnationmug. Can refer to at least two profanity-in-the-course-of-performing-patron-PR topics:
1. One or more salty-language-uttering shoppers-assistants, or
2. Employee-behavior that's so horrendous that you'd wanna include some "unnecessary adjectives" in the course of indignantly responding to it and/or resentfully describing it to others afterwards.

On should be hesitant to take impressionable little ones into less-than-dignified business establishments where there might be an issue with cusstomer service; think, the infamous "corrupting of young minds" tale of the little girl and the "diamonds-in-the-rough" construction workers.
