Get the Submechanophobia mug.verb:
1. The act of getting the interest of another person, usually of the opposite gender, without putting thought into it before doing it, and capturing that person's attention. A function of an individual's personality.
2. What an individual is doing when he or she flirts without even knowing his or her actions are perceived as some type of flirt, whether it be simply making a wise crack for a smiling; or, with direct eye contact and raised eyebrows, a simple innocent flirt could be perceived as having a more romantic tone.
Either way, over time, it can lead to serious attraction.

Women discuss how a guy is so funny and he's such a flirt.
He thinks he can't flirt and he completely misses that he is perceived that way by a majority of women with which he comes into contact each day. All he knows is that he makes wisecracks that get a laugh from the ladies and he loves an audience, the smaller the better. What he does is subconscious flirting, and he may be perceived as a persistent, non-stop, incessant flirt without intending to be.
Weeks, months, years or decades later, someone clues him in to the previously-existing or newly-found magnetic attraction.

Get the subconscious flirting mug.The modern version of the idealized 1950's house wife (see: June Cleaver). She's a stay-at-home-mom that needs day care, and a maid to free her up for lunch dates with other Suburban Princesses, and afternoons pool side. She needs a high wage earning spouse to cover her cost since she is an expense rather than a contributor to the household. Unlike her 1950's predecessor she has no useful household skills; i.e. laundry, cooking, sewing. Typically the only thing she can make for dinner are reservations. If she encounters a single working mother and mentions how hard her life is she is most likely to be jerked bald and then beaten to death by said single working mother.

Get the joint subcommittee meeting mug."Watching the submarine races" is a euphamism for making out (and more) in a car. It's the kind of thing a cop would say to be funny when he knocks on the fogged-up window of your chevy parked in back of the safeway to ask what you're doing there at 1am, as if he doesn't know damn well.
Cop: Hey, what're you kids doing in there? Watching the submarine races?
People in car: Gak! Where are my pants?

Get the submarine races mug.A congregation of Asians on Facebook obsessed with boba, asian food, and being Asian. Consists of redundant memes, yet you still end up spending 4 hours on the toilet scrolling through. If you're not in it, you're not a true Asian.
Asian friend: Hey, did you check out that post on subtle asian traits that I tagged you in?
You: You've tagged me in 200 of them in the past hour, which one?
