Pizza Cloud

The place that you go after you bite into your first slice of pizza - after a hard day or a hard week - and for a moment, you can’t really hear, see or feel anything around you.
- So what do you want to watch tonight?
Hello…?

He-lo…?

Anyone there…?

Diana?

- Oh, sorry I didn’t hear a word you were saying. I was on my Pizza Cloud.

twatwrapper 

Any kind of bandana or scarf which doesn’t fit with the wearer’s personality and has been added to make himself look more artist / enigmatic / mysterious /esoteric / spiritual (pick one... or more).

Wearing a twatwrapper is of course understandable for a teenager still exploring their identity but for someone deep into their 20s or older, can be excruciating on the eye and nerves.
“Who’s the guy in the twatwrapper?”
“Oh, that’s Dominic. Don’t mind him, this week he’s some sort of little dark poet - next week he’ll be someone else.”

Instagramoeba 

A single-celled organism which communicates with the outside world almost exclusively using Instagram to seek attention from strangers by posting heavily colour-corrected pictures of itself and it’s mundane, unfulfilled existence.

Instagramoebas mostly find it difficult to communicate under any other social conditions and seem to spend roughly 50% of their time staring into their phone.
- I can’t figure out if Anna was being rude or she’s just shy but she always seems more interested in her phone than talking to anyone for more than about 30 seconds.

- She’s turning into a bit of an Instagramoeba, it’s true.

brace position 

The position assumed by passengers of an aircraft in danger of an imminent collision or emergency landing as announced over the cabin’s public announcement system - occasionally adopted during a particularly disquieting visit to the toilet to dispatch a no.2 when someone is required to bow their head and grip something nearby or put one or both hands up against the wall.
Oh man, that curry really carved my guts up, last night. I had to assume the brace position just now.

(verb) to sows your wild oats; engage in promiscuity and rebelliousness, have many sexual relationships.
Man, it’s a shame Jim is getting serious with Zarina. With that white Mercedez of his, me and him would have absolutely Genghis’d this town.

Croucher 

croucher

The somewhat inconvenient convenience encountered in developing countries (and tragically, still in some developed ones too): a toilet where there is not much more than a hole in the floor framed by a metal or ceramic slab.

Therefore, for westerners, if one finds oneself in need of a number 2 then some important decisions need to be made regarding lower thigh strength, flexibility, clothing removal logistics and just necessity.
“I wanted to use the toilets at that last service station but they only had crouchers so I decided to hold it in until we get home.”

scroll coma 

The slightly trance-like state someone falls into after submerging themselves in an extended period of scrolling aimlessly on social networks.
“Hey, snap out of your scroll coma and let’s back to work. Lunch break is over, I need you in the land of the living”.
