road diet

When a wide, high-speed road is redesigned to be more narrow, have slower traffic, and more space designated for bicycles, pedestrians, and plant material.

Did you hear? The city council approved the road diet for University Drive. They're going to take it down from 7 lanes to 4, reduce the speed limit, put a median down the center with trees, widen the sidewalks, and stripe bike lanes on both sides. It'll be so much better. I can't wait to see it finished!

pegman

The little yellow icon on google maps that you click and drag onto the map to see the street view. He looks like an old-timey clothes peg and a man, ergo PEGMAN!

Two friends looking at a map online:

Friend 1: Hey, drag the pegman onto the map so we can see the street view.

Friend 2: Is the pegman the little orange guy you click and drag onto the map to see the street view?

Friend 1: Yes.

first pancake

An awkward or unsuccessful first experience, followed by better, highly successful subsequent experiences of the same kind. Like when you make a batch of pancakes: The first one turns out messed-up because you're out of practice or haven't made pancakes before. The second and following pancakes come out perfectly round and golden.

Girl 1: "My new boyfriend is so great, but when we had sex for the first time, it was awkward and terrible. I hope it gets better. I really like him and he likes me."

Girl 2: "Be patient. It's just like the first pancake. I'm sure it will get better."

ceiling of my mouth

The upper portion of the inside of the mouth. More commonly and incorrectly referred to as the "roof" of the mouth. This doesn't make sense because it's inside, like a ceiling, not outside, like a roof. The scalp and hair are the roof of your head, and your mouth has a ceiling.

Jim: "Hey Dan, want some tortilla chips or some Captain Crunch?"

Dan: "No thanks. Last night, I made a pizza in the oven, and like an idiot, I bit into a piece right away. The hot cheese burned the ceiling of my mouth. It hurts. I need to eat apple sauce for a few days".

Nurse: "would you like french fries or carrots?"
Patient: "I'll have the carrots. I'm trying to loose some weight."
Nurse: "would you like a piece of the banana cream pie?"
Patient: "Oh, you silver tongued savage!"

adult dark

The time of day when the sun is setting, when adults think it's too dark for kids to keep playing outside. The kids, however, insist there is still enough light out to keep playing for a while longer because it's not all the way dark yet. The adults think it's too dark out because they've been sitting in the house with lights on.

Mom yelling outside: "Kids, come inside. It's dark out there! Come in and wash, supper's almost ready!"

Kids: "Aw mom! It's not too dark out, we can still see the ball! It's only adult dark. 10 more minutes!"
