preemptive Christmas

The movement of both the radio and retail industry that will see stores set up for the holiday season and radio stations blare out Christmas music 24/7 usually starting around Halloween.

What's up with all the preemptive Christmas? Walmart's setting up trees, and I haven't gone trick-or-treating yet!

Wisdom cookie

The opposite of a fortune cookie, instead of telling you your fortune, it offers a bit of philosophical wisdom. Usually, it's a heavy disappointment.

A wisdom cookie would say: "You have a zest for the finer things in life," as opposed to "You will have full contentment by summer's end".
