rhymes with "cough"

derived from the desire to 'swear without swearing', from a glorious exchange - with nether party swearing one bit!

in an attempt to imply 'f-off', the rhyme was offered up instead. with great surprise the reply was even better than the joke itself...

(also used: 'would you like to play the russian composer?')
me: 'enter facetious remark here'
other: 'enter doubly facetious retort here'
me: rhymes with "cough"
other: er, "rachmaninoff"?

Windows FP

Windows FP (aka: Windows Fisher Price), is the successor to Windows 2000.

Also known as 'Windows XP'. This was the last stand of a dying corporation to save itself, from itself. The interface was designed by the team who delivered the Apple Macintosh almost twenty years earlier, but is neither as stable, nor as easy to use.

Windows FP was seen by many as an attempt to make the Windows OS more Mac-like. However, with a GUI incapable of smooth transitions, the results appear more like melted-candy corn than the inimitable Mac OS X that it tries so hard to be.

Visual cues apparently have been taken from the local kindergarden. Everything is either big, lurid, or unnecessary (sometimes all three). Plagued with problems throughout, it's party-piece was it's ability to crash all by itself.
Me: "Dude, is that your lil' bro's toy you rollin'?"
You: "No dude, it's my new Windows FP"

brown shoe

substitute for bless you, used only after the first sneeze.

since the ears take a few seconds to adjust after the pressure change, everyone will hear bless you instead. people nearby won't expect to hear it, but won't say anything if they do.

if the person sleezes a second time, revert to bless you and anyone who thought they heard brown shoe will think they're losing it... ;)~
they: ahhhhhh-chooo!
you: brown shoe
they: thank you
other: (thinks they heard brown shoe, but not sure enough to say anything)

Domain Diet

Cancelling unused domain names, when the renewal fees exceed $1,000.
You: Just got a $1,350 bill for some .com's I haven't even used yet

You: true true

Freelance Bladder

Freelancer(s) who work from home cannot survive without knowing a bathroom is a few meters away.

This is because they are so used to waiting until the very last moment to use it & seldom have to queue.

As a result of this, even a 10 minute car journey will see them popping-in both before, after & probably also thinking about it somewhere in between.

Do not attempt to initiate stage fright, as it just makes it worse. A Freelancer will still have to go again within the hour.
They: Can you help me carry this suitcase to the car?
Freelancer: Sure thing! Gotta have a quick slash first
They: But you've only just been? You so have a Freelance Bladder!
