zebra effect

A state of mental dating distraction. It occurs when an individual on the make is presented with too many equally attractive choices at the same time. Similar to the sensory overload experienced by a lioness crossing open ground to advance on a heard of zebras. The end result is often missed opportunity and frustration.

trickle-down economics

The great thing about trickle-down economics is that every time I purchase a new yacht or Humvee it helps out every member of society. Don't see this five course meal and seven hundred dollar bottle of wine as an example of greed and excessive consumption, think of it as a consumer-based economic stimulus package. Now then, what's fifteen percent of three thousand dollars? Or maybe I should only tip ten, the waiter forgot to put THREE lemons in my water!

worm-killer

That worm-killer just didn't get it - how the lives of those worms, field-mice and insects killed during crop production are just as precious as those of the domesticated animals she claims to hold dear.
