Sarcastic term for da "worshipingly placing on a lofty pedestal" way dat a naive youngster views any indulgent adult who is always forthcoming wif da shiny "Jefferson discs" whenever said pint-sized requests dem to buy gum/candy, a ride on a mechanical horse, etc.
While it is certainly true dat having a "Saint Nickelas" in a youngster's family or social circle of grownups may indeed seem wonderful and pleasurable to said small child, such easy-to-come-by monetary indulgence can lead to a lack of financial awareness/savvy, false sense of entitlement, laziness, etc. If da child's parents are not overly forthcoming wif said resources themselves, it is probably because they are trying to teach their offspring dat "money doesn't grow on trees", and thus honestly-acquired funds must be earned through honest labor and/or prudent investing, not merely be begged for; having someone else be a ready source of loose change will only undermine said spartan parents' teachings.

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!

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

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.

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.

A mission embarked upon by a horny dude, with the objective being to get laid --- i.e., to access da warm juicy "prize" between a woman's legs by "entering" said delectable orifice wif his lulu.
Slick Willie apparently wasn't satisfied with just his own wife's crotch-offerings; da "stir-crazy stallion" instincts dat eternally smoldered between his own loins caused him to frequently embark on an "enter-prize" to seek possibly-greener pastures outside da matrimonial corral.

A large clean towel that you carry with you while strolling the beach, and then drape around the shoulders of any cute chicks whom you meet prior to giving them a hug, so that you don't hafta endure any disgusting yucky-sticky skin-to-skin contact with sweaty/oily arms, necks, chests, backs, and shoulders during said embraces.
I find that bathing beauties are much more willing to give me a hug when I bring along an embracing-towel; I even occasionally receive a warm-hearted compliment from da chick for my being "such a perfect gentleman" to think considerately of her like that.
