the canary

Someone that you let go first to make sure it is safe. Used sometimes by video-gamers. For instance, when the canary gets killed, springs the trap, takes the fall etc, it will tell you where the dangers/enemies are. Origin: coal miners used to keep a canary in the mine, when it died they knew there was poison gas.

Looks dangerous in there, let the canary go first.

Operation Iraqi Liberation

What the US government was calling the Iraq War before they realized the title was more appropriate than it should have been (Operation Iraqi Liberation – O.I.L.). This is not an urban legend made up by leftists; check the official whitehouse press release:

(delete space in "releases")

Operation Iraqi Liberation liberated something, but it wasn't Iraqis (it was O.I.L.).

A present that you ostensibly buy for someone else, but really bought for yourself. Expression comes from that Simpsons episode in which Homer buys Marge a bowling ball he wants.

You're buying Mom a drill for Christmas? Dude that's such a bowling ball for marge, she'll totally know it.
