Get the spelunking mug.a verb that means to crave something strongly, usually said in a construct with a participle (e.g. "to be jonesing for") and often pronounced without the 'g' at the end (e.g. "to be jonesin' for").
Sometimes the "for" is foregone. Usually a phrase emphasizing being in the moment is included, such as "right now" for the present, or "at that time", "right then" for the past. In past, present or future constructions, when said in a negative construction "just yet" is also used occasionally.

Get the hanging shirt mug.Walking on the sidewalk in a row instead of in a line, like people do on TV. It's particularly noticeable with Midwestern US tourists in East Coast cities, like New York, DC and Boston. People emulate what they see on TV especially Sex and the City rather than noticing the etiquette and block access for people trying to go around or walk in the opposite direction.
