Gap Year Anarchist

A phase common amongst more affluent males in their early twenties, which typically requires the exchange of basic hygiene for Bob Marley memorabilia, dreadlocks and second hand military clothing.

Early warning signs include the gradual slurring of speech (as made popular in the movie 'Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure'), endless discussions of aid increases/debt reduction and an overall musky smell.

A Gap Year Anarchist will subscribe to numerous clichés. Behaviour may include voluntary summertime homelessness/squatting, throwing flour & dancing on a Cenotaph.

The phase ends when the GYA finally succumbs to pleas from his/her family and/or bank manager/student loans company/court, gets a haircut, a job and a life!
"And once again a Gap Year Anarchist succeeds in his lifetime's ambition: to get all the attention. Well done. *slow hand clap*"

(British Labour MP Tom Harris tweet, 19th of July 2011)

Victim: "Nah, I just got m'self a beef-jerky-viagra-kind-of-a-vibe..."
Buddy: "Any good?"
Victim: Er... Nope. Just' a lil' SPASM..."

studio tan

The opposite of the suntan that lazy people get sitting on the beach, when you're working your butt off in the studio until the early hours of the morning.

Typically blamed on the winter months, by people who work just as hard in the summer & don't see daylight from one year to the next.
They: "Why don't you go outside & get a little sun on your bones"
You: "It's my studio tan. I've been working on it all summer"
They: "Er... I thought a tan made you darker"
You: "Dude, I'm in the dark Dude. I am the darkest of them all."

Nappy Happy

Married's who just can't help themselves but take their whinging offspring everywhere they go.

Specifically: quiet pubs, cosy restaurants and a plethora of other entirely unsuitable places.

They frequently bore everyone to death with their endless tales about their newborn(s) futile antics, but can't understand why you couldn't give a damn and not inconsequentially, saved up to come here for your anniversary/first date and would like them to leave asap FFS!!!

This transformation afflicts strangers (and former friends), who subsequently become increasingly insufferable, whilst longing for the life you have & hoping to make you suffer for it any way they can.

The absolute truth is that whilst you rock the mic, they're picking sh*t from under their fingernails. Eugh! They call it natural, we know it's nasty.
Bringing a toddler to a pub, is like taking a ghetto blaster to a library.

Damn those Nappy Happy fools!

Export

An export is a pint sanctioned by a beloved local. Unlike a regular pint, this one is endorsed by the pub, who are entirely happy that you take it home with you, glass and all.

It must be noted that with power comes great responsibility. The glass must be returned within a 24 hour period, lest said privileges be revoked.

Should a member of staff ever question the loyalty of an export beneficiary, his/her door keys must be offered to whomever asks, with an invitation to check said home for unreturned glasses. If a single pub glass is found, said folk be barred for a month.
You: 'What time are you closing tonight?'
Host: 'In twenty minutes'
You: 'May I have a pint now… and an export for later?'
Host: 'Certainly'
