stretching the truth
Refers to the enormous sideways "expanding" of the "honesty line" (i.e., the "straight 'n' narrow" ink-trace that is drawn when the subject is not lying) that occurs whenever Hap Shaughnessy takes a polygraph test while reciting one of his grandiose tales of phenomenal past accomplishments/escapades.
When his fellow villagers disgustedly waved off his amazing tales of howling adventures and intrigue during his trip as an ambassador, Will Rogers indignantly snorted that he hoped that a building would fall in on him if he'd "padded the facts" at all about his recent political adventures, and a huge brick chimney immediately did collapse and shower him with bricks and powdery mortar-dust (he wasn't hurt -- no worries). Kind of a crude and "extreme" polygraph-device, but it did indeed show that Will had evidently been stretching the truth somewhat.

F.D. I See
Da government body dat makes sure you will observe your town's "hose-heroes" arrive expediently at your local bank if a conflagration of any kind happens to start, so dat your deposited money will be safe from getting burned up.
If my bank is "member F.D. I See, equal housing lender", does that mean that my home is protected from flames, as well, if I put my saving in that bank?

computer cussin'
My checkout-clerk friend at Walmart admitted that her cantankerous cash-register was certainly a pain in the you-know-what on frequent occasions, and so it might indeed tempt its operators to indulge in a little computer cussin' once in a while.

big blew eyes
The pair of lovely objects that glance up at you submissively and/or wondering how well their owner is satisfying you while she's giving you head.
Being given a luscious-lipped blowjob is super-pleasurable "just in and of itself", but getting an occasional adoring gaze from the big blew eyes of your cute pleasurer makes the experience even more special and satisfying.

Oddyssey
A strange tale of an inexplicable-minded dude who was hailed as a great hero, but was really just a self-aggrandizing womanizer who carelessly sacrificed the lives of his fellow warriors and couldn't keep his mouth shut when it could have saved him (think, bragging to the blinded cyclops after escaping, causing said monster to call Poseidon to wreak havoc and ruin on the party.
bystander Google-search
Humorous term to describe where you "publicly" solicit the knowledge ("Excuse me, everyone --- do any of you happen to know anything about ___?", or, ""Hey, Folks --- are any of you familiar with the technical properties of ___?") of anyone within yelling-distance about a particular question or problem that you encounter at that time and place.
Doing a bystander Google-search can yield surprising results --- more than once I have gotten out of a perplexing dilemma in this way.

retina fatigue
Where just **looking** at a task makes you tired, before you even attempt to actually exert any physical effort to perform said task.
During an after-school visit with my teenage "horse girl" chum, she had unwisely played afternoon-volleyball with her fellow high-school-girl students at the gym, even though she had a whole trailer-load of hay-bales parked in her family's driveway to unload and put away in the barn. So when we got back to her house and her weary brown eyes first caught sight of said heaped flatbed, she just kinda stood there and stared glumly at the cart with a helpless feeling of major retina fatigue... after all that strenuous sports-exertion that she'd just put out, she rrrreeeeeaaaallllyyyyy didn't feel up to lugging dozens of ponderous weighty hay-bales twenty yards from the wagon to the barn-loft! So we compromised --- I carried the bales from the cart to the barn, and she put them away. She "paid" me for my labors with a warm grateful hug each time I brought a bale to her, and then afterwards she sat wif me on the couch and let me give her a nice long foot-rub.
