Out-of-Order Math

When someone fails to carry out the operations in a math problem correctly, often because they couldn’t remember the rule, or they use their own oft-flawed logic to do so.

John flunked his recent class test, because he’s a victim of out-of-order math—he repeatedly misused the BODMAS rule to simplify arithmetic expressions, and misapplied the procedure to find the inverse of a matrix.

out-of-town shutdown

An issue with one’s digestive tract resulting in the inability to take a dump because you are away from home on vacation

My stomach is killing me. I haven’t taken a shit since we arrived here on vacation. The out-of-town shutdown is lasting longer than normal.

chatting out of one's arsecrack

To most this phrase seems unfamiliar until it is explained that this is the historical precursor to the frequently used and highly popular word chatinowtuvisarscruck, most commonly heard whilst urinating in the vicinity of a public house or bar. After decades of research, linguists have finally concluded that the genesis of this phrase dates back to 1654 when early missionaries discovered the small mid-pacific island known locally by the mutant inhabitants as Paaahrrrrumpiturrruumph, their erroneous DNA strands having caused each of their digestive-vocal systems to have formed backwards. In modern times, the phrase has become synonymous with the performances of the UK's one man freak show "David Cameron", who has yet to utter a single a word that has not been born from within his arse, as this is where his head is permanently lodged.

"I have reason to believe that the message one is currently attempting to convey may not be entirely true, or at least is to a significant degree fabricated. Therefore, I find it not disproportionately crass to assert that one is chatting out of one's arsecrack!"

Came out of the toolbox

A term used to describe someone who joined, switched into, or revealed that they were/are an Engineer after claiming otherwise for a long time. This is actually very common for students who originally wanted to do Engineering, but left it for something else because they thought it would end up boring, or because of annoying parents. In some rare cases, an art student will come out of the toolbox, and if they are successful they will be hated by everyone for being both left and right-brained.

Some warning signs could be: Tinkering when no one is around, playing with Legos too much, and casually building the Iron Man armor in the garage.

"Hey, did you hear Tony came out of the toolbox?"
"Pshh, doesn't surprise me. Animation was just a cover-up, I knew ever since I saw him 3D printing in the library"
