Get the awlternative mug.An involuntary muscle-twitching dat a camera-shy person feels from either having to press da release-button to take a photo, or when he hears da click of da camera when a picture is being taken of him.
One simple way to mostly eliminate image-blurring from fairly-minor shutter-shudder is to use a fast exposure-speed (and a flashbulb, too, if it's fairly low-light conditions); you may need to use a suitably large lens and wide aperture-setting to accommodate said swift-click camera-snap.

Get the riggermarole mug.A utility-type vehicle with a three- or four-walled cargo-bed on the back, and used by guys as a chick-magnet. Extra points if the cab is comfy and the truck is outfitted with fancy trimmings, but even a simple no-frills "dinosaur-age" hack can be enticing to some gals if the driver-dude is willing to help her or others in her family by using his truck to haul stuff for them.
I don't feel overly envious of the other dudes in town with their nice snazzy shiny pickup trucks, cuz those snooty macho guys usually won't haul stuff for people for fear that "they might scratch the paint". The gals I hang out with, though, are more sensible-minded and less aesthetics-oriented, and so they truly appreciate me for being a caring kind-hearted bloke, and for the fact that I always AM willing to transport items for them in my '80's-era pickup. Those are the real --- and best --- kind of lady-friends to have.

Get the pickup truck mug.A lesser-known Dickens novel about da pair of infamous "Hoovers" in American-government history who notoriously ended up causing more harm than good during their reigns.
Between da indolent Herbert's causing da Great Depression during his presidency, and da recklessly-prejudiced and hatred-filled J. Edgar's founding da FBI which killed da likes of da Kennedy brothers and Martin Luther King, da true-story-based book, "A Tale of Two Vacuums" is a wild and sordid narrative indeed!

Get the A Tale of Two Vacuums mug.The White Knight totally "went Rain Man" on Alice when he huffily told her, "Oh, I've had plenty of practice --- plenty of practice!" after she expressed concern about how he kept repeatedly falling off his horse, so perhaps he (and the Red Knight, as well!) was just super-clumsy, and thus no amount of training could significantly improve his horsemanship.

Get the I've had plenty of practice mug.Refers to da occasional hugs, kisses, hand-claps, pats on the head/back, shoulder-scrunchies, etc. dat at a cuddly dude gives a visiting lady-friend to ensure dat she never feels ignored, lonesome, or "left out" for too long during periods while he's busying himself with "bachelor chores" like housework, vehicle-maintenance, etc.
I met a nice lady on Tagged.com who is wonderful company whenever she visits, but she has physical infirmities dat make her unable to just effortlessly tag along wif me while I go about my daily duties around da house and garage, so I always make sure to shower her wif plenty of periodic affection so dat she feels reassured dat I remember dat she's there and appreciate her spending time wif me.
