Dagwood

The contents of several sandwiches between just two slices of bread (for example: marmite, ham, chutney, tomato, cheese, mayo, cucumber, and marmalade) creating a combination of contrasting textures and tastes.

That's no sandwich; that's a dagwood!

Sword of Damocles

1) A story of Greek legend, in which tyrant Dionysius II of Syracuse showed Damocles the dangers of being "fortunate" by allowing him to sit in his throne while a sword hung over him held only by a singe strand of hair.

2) An ever-present threat that can destroy one's good fortunes at any moment.

Is the Tea Party really that suicidal for the Sword of Damocles over their heads?

Dagmara

The prettiest girl you've ever seen. Dagmaras are usually blonde but very smart and nice to everyone. Every Dagmara is sick-minded and will do anything you want. Their asses are always sexy. They're crazy and don't think before doing something, that's why they're so popular.

- Look at that crazy girl, she's so wild!
- I know! I bet her name is Dagmara!
