subway sandwich ordeal 

When you encounter a situation with an unnecessarily large number of options to choose from, and all you really wanted is something that just works... what kind of bread, what kind of cheese, condiments, meat.... sigh! (Where I come from, bread=white sliced bread)...

Bonus points when used with cloud computing!

Refer to "Funniest Milk Ad Ever! (Australian)" on youtube for further illustration.
1) The dating websites these days are turning into a subway sandwich ordeal!

Subway smell 

"Subway smell" is the staunch odor that soaks into your clothing while eating at a Subway restaurant. Many scientists theorize that this God awful smell is produced by the "fresh" baked bread; however, another competing school of thought theorizes that the stench comes from the chemical preservative liquid that the meats come packed in.

Once the smell has penetrated your clothing, you will inevitably smell like a rotten butthole for the rest of the day. Most people will mistake your newly acquired smell for B.O. unless you are carrying a Subway bag, in which case they will immediately understand the source of the offending odor.
Hey Matt, let's go get a $5 footlong at Subway for lunch.

No way Travis. I've got a date with Sarah tonight, and my chances of getting laid will diminish if I have Subway smell on me.

Yes, that place is an olfactory nightmare.

Subway lottery 

When you go to Subway and tell the people making your sandwich to "Surprise me". The results can vary from delicious and unique to disgusting and nightmarish.
"I'm sick of the same, boring sandwich. Let's play the Subway lottery!"

"I just got a cucumber carrot jalapeno seafood sandwich with sweet onion sauce, vinegar & mayo. Looks like I just lost the Subway lottery."

Subway Stance 

The stance one assumes in order to brace for the sudden start of a subway or train. A good subway stance makes holding onto handrails unnecessary. Styles include, but are not limited to:

The "Cowboy" (wide legged, forming tunnel with legs)

The "Sprinter" (formation of a triangle with the body, hands on the ground, feet on the ground, stomach in the air)

THe "Doggystyle" (assume doggystyle position)

THe "beanstalk" (anchoring foot under seat or luggage to avoid falling)
Dan- "Wow, look at that guy ride the subway! He doesn't hold on to the handrails at all! How doesn't he fall?"

CHristina-"He is an experience subway rider, and by consequence he has perfected a solid subway stance"

Dan-"THATS THE COOLEST THING EVER"
