Traffic Tics

Uncontrollable tics that involve the middle fingers of one or both hands

child in car: why is that man his finger pointing upward.
mom in car: dear, he just has a case of traffic tics.

Supreme Court and Federal Courts Building

The official name of the court building at Kent and Wellington Streets in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Sometimes it is colloquially and erroneously called "The Supreme Court Building" (even by experienced journalists) because it houses the Supreme Court of Canada. But it is officially called the "Supreme Court and Federal Courts Building" because the Federal Court of Appeal and the Federal Court also both regularly sit in their own courtrooms within the building.

I'm going to the Supreme Court and Federal Courts Building to watch a Federal Court of Appeal hearing.

Flea

A bad tipper. A person who, like a flea, has short arms, so he doesn’t reach into his pockets

Hey bartender, don’t give your bill to that guy over there if you want to make money. He’s a flea. Give it to his friend.

Ubersaint

Anyone with an uber rating over 4.98.

Chris, whose Uber rating is 4.97, is not an Ubersaint; but, on the other hand, David, at 4.99, is an Ubersaint.

Flea

A bad tipper: someone whose “little arms are too short to reach down into their pockets”.

When we go to the pub, my friend Chris tips far less than I do. He is such a flea.
