not keeping up with the Jone's

Not buying the latest and greatest, making do with what you have, because you have more important places to put the money, such as your kids education or your retirement.
Why am I not keeping up with the Jone's ? My son and my money both go to Marquette.

proof reader

Someone who corrects the English mistakes in the work of another writer. The shepherd who safely guides thoughts and ideas through the swamps of the English language. A maintenance worker who struggles to keep that cobbled together bridge between the writers mind and the readers mind called English from collapsing. A harmless drudge who works just as hard on a toilet paper ad as on a work that will be considered a jewel of western literature. A pain in the neck when it's your paper they're correcting.
The quality of your paper is A+, the mechanics is D- , you are a miserable proof reader. I really stink at English my spouse has to proofread all my writing.

overpriced

A $5.00 item that costs $10.00. May be of higher quality than a $4.00 item but not enough to justify it's price. Usually a fad or status item like a $500 Gucci purse.
You can get an identical knock off of a Gucci purse for 1/5 the price, the Gucci is way overpriced.

help

A mythical being that will magically appear and render assistance. No one knows what help looks like as no one has ever seen it. I think it isn't fair to blame help for promises that other people make, and help can't keep.
That cabinet looks to big and heavy to move by myself, don't worry you'll have help. I'm not qualified to do this job, don't worry you'll have help. I don't have enough time for this project, don't worry you'll have help.

battlecar retardia

A junk car or truck ,that is driven like a tank by its' retarded driver. The driver forces his way into traffic, cuts people off, and does scary moves because he doesn't care if his ride gets into a wreck. Most battlecar drivers have no plates, no drivers license , no insurance ,and no brains. Normal drivers give way because they don't want a wreck.
Where are the cops when a battlecar retardia is loose?

pump bandit

Someone who drives away without paying for their gas. Some try to claim it's a form of social justice because "the oil companies are ripping us off." Basically it's stealing from the guy who owns the local gas station.
Thanks to the pump bandits you now have to prepay all the time.
