Kentucky Bumpfire

1) The practice of doing bumpfire or bumpfiring a semi-automatic rifle by needlessly, inefficiently and probably unsafely having a buddy stand behind you and pull the stock of your slinged rifle. 2) Any needless, inefficient and unsafe variation on standard shooting protocol usually thought up by two (almost always male) friends when they have more ammo than targets or good sense. See, Kentucky Windage.

Hey, why is that guy using himself as a bipod for his buddy's AR?
Hmm...That right there, son, is some serious Kentucky Bumpfire.

Passing Nick Kristof in the Aisle

To lay a fart in someone's face while passing them in an airplane, bus, subway train or other public conveyance where they are denied a means of easy escape and have to take the full blast directly or at least danger close. From an unfortunate incident in late 2019 when two-time Pulitzer Prize winner and New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof took such a hit while on a U.S. transcontinental flight.

What happened to you?
I tripped on my shoelace while passing Nick Kristof in the aisle to my Calc teacher on the way back from the Mathletes Jamboree and now I've gotta wear this leg boot for 3 weeks.
Yeah, karma can be a bitch.

Shit in the mikveh

"To spoil an otherwise successful endeavor or to ruin an otherwise positive moment." A sort of haimish or heimish (i.e., Jewish-inflected) version of "turd in a punch bowl" or "turd in one's drink." A mikveh is a ritual bath used for purification and conversion in the Jewish tradition and, thus, shitting in one is strictly forbidden.

Me and my buddy were having a great morning shooting out on Forest Service land until a couple of noobs with zero target acquisition skills and good sense showed up and took a massive shit in the mikveh by sending a bunch of 5.56 across our baffles.
