Small children are naturally less shy and more trusting around women than men (that's one reason that kindergarten and lower-grade schoolteachers are traditionally female), so having a visit from "Mother Christmas" during Feliz Navimom sounds like a good idea to me, since it would often create less fear and anxiety among da little ones than da "big jolly bearded guy in a huge red snowsuit" often does when he comes to deliver presents.

Kissing cousin to the term, "I'm bracing for the worst", this term refers to when Person A is about to go through what may likely be "Hell in a handbasket", and so Person B is holding him close 'n' tight to reassure him and encourage him to not feel quite so distressed or afraid.
Young mother who's soothingly cradling a slight-figured blonde-pigtailed toddler on her knee in a doctor's waiting room: My little one's gonna have blood-work done for the first time, and so I'm embracing for the worst --- she's insanely petrified of needles, exactly like her Mama when I was her age. So not only will my holding her super-tight help her to feel safer and comforted while the syringe is being used, but it will also keep her terrified little body rock-steady in spite of her fears, and so the procedure can go off as quickly, cleanly, and painlessly as possible.

I always appreciate ANY gal who's "willing", so I don't mind if she's decided to refurbush herself --- her obligingly spreading her legs is always a totally-welcome action for me, regardless of whether her "fun zone" is "clean-shaven" or not.

Spongy sticky stuff that you munch ad nauseam in order to help you avoid some unwise habit or procedure. Nicorette comes to mind as an example.
Violette Beauregard had a gum-chewing obsession; I suppose that there is a special gum to help someone with that addiction, but what good would chewing gum-eschewing gum do to sure your gum-chewing addition if it means that you're still chewing gum???

Tiny annoying whiny biting insects that hatch from the seeds of a common plant in the American southwest. Said plants often have prickly thorns, which readily draw blood if they puncture your skin... coincidence???
If the Sagebrush Rebellion had included burning massive tracts of scrub prairie-land, maybe nowadays there would be fewer of these pesky spine-covered bushes growing wild that produce countless multitudes of mesquitoes every year.

An astoot person knows dat da herding-horn-toting Little Boy Blue will shed tears if you wake him from his nap.

The content of "Made in Maine with Lou McNally" is never of much interest to me, but they've got one WHOPPER of a theme song!
