that old chesnut

a phrase which generally refers to a cliche or an over-used excuse. to be used in disgust. often a pre-cursor to serious arguments in games such as checkers... like when a player tries to pull the "classic" half-pincer movement.

"well....you know there is trouble a brewing when that saying comes out" - Rob McLean

cool spot

a plastic drinks-container lid who was the star of several video games in the early 90's. Cool Spot's main pleasure in life was hanging out at the beach and freeing his friends from cages. notable adventures include a trip to Hollywood and his trip to a drug rehab clinic. it is debatable as to whether Cool Spot is:
(a) a drink-container lid
(b) a checker
(c) a tiddly wink

"the reddest plastic drink container lid to get his own video game" Rob McLean, Cool Spot fanatic
