crossing the river styx 

When your friend passes out at a party, and you proceed to droop your hanging testicles over his eye sockets and allow them to rest on his closed lids.

Derived from Greek mythology:
The dead would be buried with gold coins in their eye sockets, to pay Charon the ferryman to carry their body across the River Styx and into the Underworld.
1) Man, Sean totally Crossed the River Styx last night at that party.

2) Eric and Patti drank way too much and blacked out. I helped them Cross the River Styx while Ryan took photos.

This is a pick up line.

You : Excuse me miss can I see you hand, (don't worry I wont do anything to upset you) ( only if she is shy about it)

SHE GIVES YOU HER HAND, PLACE HER HAND INSIDE OF YOUR HAND PALM UP

DRAW A LINE DOWN THE MIDDLE OF HER HAND, AND SAY THIS IS A RIVER.

THERE IS A CHICKEN ON THIS SIDE OF THE RIVER, HE NEEDS TO GET TO THIS SIDE OF THE RIVER

(USE YOUR FINGER TO KINDA DRAW OUT ON HER HAND WHAT YOU ARE SAYING AS YOUR ARE SAYING IT, IT MAKES HER MORE INTERESTED IN IT)

NOW THAT CHICKEN CANT GO AROUND THE RIVER (USING YOUR FINGER TO DRAW WHAT YOU ARE SAYING)

THAT CHICKEN CANT SWIM IT (DRAW IT)

THAT CHICKEN CANT JUMP IT (DRAW IT).

SO HOW DOES THAT CHICKEN GET FROM THIS SIDE OF THE RIVER TO THAT SIDE OF THE RIVER? (DRAW IT)

NO MATTER WHAT SHE SAYS THE CHICKEN CANT GET FROM ONE SIDE TO THE OTHER PERIOD!

WHEN SHE SAYS WELL I DONT KNOW THEN, YOU SAY NEITHER DO I. I JUST WANTED TO HOLD YOUR HAND.

SO TO RECAP HOW IT SHOULD GO. EXCUSE ME MISS, CAN I SEE YOU HAND. OKAY THERE IS A RIVER RIGHT HERE AND THERE IS A CHICKEN ON THIS SIDE OF THE RIVER AND THAT CHICKEN NEEDS TO GET TO THAT SIDE OF THE RIVER, HE CANT GO AROUND, HE CANT SWIM IT, AND HE CANT JUMP IT. SO HOW DOES THAT CHICKEN GET FROM ONE SIDE OF THE RIVER TO THE OTHER? (NO MATTER WHAT SHE SAYS, YOU SAY HE CANT DO IT) (WHEN SHE SAYS I DONT KNOW HOW THE CHICKEN DOES IT) YOU SAY NEITHER DO I. I JUST WANTED TO HOLD YOU HAND.

Hate Sink 

A person you hate intensely not because they deserve such hatred but because they serve as a focus for your general hatred. A healthy way to dispense with excess animosity.
Jake's not really that big an asshole. He just serves as my hate sink.

A toe rag was originally a foot wrapping used, since mediaeval times up until the mid-nineteenth century, to protect the foot from chafing by boots or shoes. As these were, quite literally, rags they weren’t usually washed, and so with use they became very smelly until they were thrown away. Because of the similarity in smell, toe rag also became the name applied to dried, salted cod or other things with a strong, unpleasant, fishy smell. It didn’t take that long before the name was applied to someone who was an obnoxious, unpleasant OIC.
1 “Socks! Those aren’t socks you smelly git, they’re toe rags!”
2 “What have you been cooking? Smells like toe rag!”
3 “I can smell ‘er fanny from ‘ere, proper toe rag.”
4 That Heale Malcolm is a right toe rag.

Eternity leave 

When some resigns or retires from a job, they are on "eternity leave". This can also refer to someone who has passed away, especially someone who worked somewhere for a long time, retired/resigned, then passed away later.
Oh I'm sorry, you didn't know that Kelly is on eternity leave? She resigned and moved to Hawaii!

With regrets I would like to inform you that my boss is officially on eternity leave. I will never see or hear them again. Ever.
