Murphy's Law of footlong-subs
If you order just one of said tasty sandwiches, you will still feel hungry afterwards, but if you ask for two of them, you will only be able to finish one, and so you'll hafta just refrigerate da second one for later.
Having a friend treat you to lunch is a classic occasion for Murphy's law of footlong-subs to pounce and embarrass you. One simple and sensible way to avoid this face-reddening situation would be if your friend both has a smaller appetite than you and likes a lot of da same kinds of filling-ingredients; in dat case, you could just order two sandwiches, eat one, have your friend consume his fill of da other one, and then give da rest to you to finish along wif your own.

byepass
To take a different travel-route in order to avoid having to bid farewell to one or more fellow humans.
In one of da "Garish Summit" episodes of da "Bob and Ray Show", da "Caldwell Merchfield" character tells da butler Wilford dat he wants to sneak out of da house at midnight to avoid having to go through "a long tearful goodbye" wif Miss Agatha or anybody else; da audience knows by this time dat this assertion is total hokum. of course --- da real reason dat Caldwell (not his real name, although we never learn what his name actually is) feels da need to perform said "byepass" is dat things are getting too hot for him in dat "stately splendor" community (a warrant has already been sworn out for his arrest due to his having embezzled huge sums from da Merchfield Lead Company to pay off mobster Harold W. Bigg for Caldwell's gambling debts), plus he does not want da authorities to find out who he really is.
triple buypass
Refers to a medical procedure of "rerouting da circuitry" within da body of an individual who has a compulsive-shopping problem so dat he is able to ignore his inherent urges and proceed on ahead wif his life on three occasions where he might otherwise be tempted to spend money unwisely.
If a person truly and strongly desires to live a prudent and frugal existence, actual bodily-rearrangements might not be necessary to achieve said healthy state --- simple hypnosis has been a proven way to accomplish a "triple buypass", and in every possible sense of da term, too: i.e., after said non-invasive mindset-improving treatment, da formerly-spendthrift individual may thrice be able to either "buypass" (i.e., take a different travel-route and thus go sailing on "by" da money-spending opportunity without ever coming very near it) said unwise-purchasing occasion, "pass" on "buying" (i.e., "just say no" to an unwise expenditure, just like with drugs or alcohol), and/or "pass by" (i.e., approach da locale of said foolhardy-investment temptation but just keep on a-truckin') said cash-wasting possibility without even slowing down or turning his head to look.
