course correct

To correct something along the way – as in contrary to stopping in order to make something work better. As a process is happening, you would realize improvements are needed so you would make improvement during the process without restarting from the beginning.

Don't be such a perfectionist and stop procrastinating. Start building and course correct as you learn along the way.

I hesitate to articulate for fear that I may deviate from the true course of rectitude

I don't know. Literally. It means, I don't know.

Professor: Michael, what is the atomic weight of Uranium?
Michael: I hestiate to articulate for fear that I may deviate from the true course of rectitude.
Professor: What?
Michael: I don't know.

Courtesy Chasm

The seats left open between groups of people at movies, concerts, games, etc.

If everyone closed their courtesy chasms, we'd all be a lot closer to the stage.

courtesy flush

A flush in the middle of the toilet-sitting process in order to reduce the aroma...usually performed on a "foreign throne" as a courtesy to the owner of said throne... in other words, to be polite and not stink up the host's crapper too much.

I gave a courtesy flush at the Smith's party because I didn't want to kill the next person to use the bathroom.

courtesy wash

The common practice of men, where after using a public restroom, instead of actually washing their hands, they simply slightly dampen them under the sink and then dry them on the pants or a paper towel. Thus giving the illusion that they did in fact wash their hands.

She ragged on you about washing your hands? Why didn't you do a courtesy wash?

courtesy month

the month subsequent to breaking up with someone during which the one who did the breaking up refrains from sexual activity with a third party unless the one who was dumped fucks someone else first

1. "Hey man, that chick wants your nuts. Are you going to bang her?"

"No man- I broke up with Leah last week and it's still her courtesy month."

2. "Dammit, Kristy just broke up with me and I heard she just got tag teamed by black guys!"

"I guess that whore doesn't believe in the courtesy month."

3. "Did you just fuck Jill? I thought you broke up with Kate two weeks ago. What about the courtesy month?"

"It's all good- Kate just blew the basketball team."

Courtney

One of the kindest caring people ever. She is so loveable and when talking to her you are sure to have a laugh. She is always smiling and is friends with everyone. It’s impossible to dislike her and if you do you’re just jealous. She is great at keeping secrets and listening to others. She would never hurt someone on purpose. She loves to dance and listen to music. Sometimes she puts herself down and thinks she isn’t worth it but she needs to know she is amazing, beautiful, talented and has such a kind caring soul.

guy: look at that girl over there!
Girl: yeah that’s Courtney, she is my bestfriend
Guy: woah
