A sport designed for people who like the cold, hills and exercise induced asthma. Some find it fun, but for most it closely resembles some form of personal hell. It is very common to have some type of traumatic childhood experience associated with a forest, the cold, exhaustion and having wooden boards strapped to your feet. Although frequently associated with old people, and knits, it is the second most popular winter sport globally. The vast majority of racers are men.

Get the Crown Victoria mug."Crossed wires" can describe either of these situations:
1. when people who are supposedly having a conversation with each other are actually talking about completely different things
2. when a dialogue gets out of sync because people are not listening to each other - in a written dialogue this is usually because someone has posted twice before reading a reply.
The expression derives from ye olden days of analogue telephones. Sometimes when speaking on the phone in the 60s or 70s it was possible to hear another conversation on the same line. You might also pick up the phone and find that instead of a dial tone you could hear a conversation. This situation was called "crossed wires".
