To gain momentum, to get well known rapidly.

After this kid made his mixtape, he is catching fire among the community and the music industry.

The Catcher in her Eye

When you're getting a BJ, and you yell "Stop 'Holden' my Nutsack" and you then bust one in her eye. You then gently wipe off her face with an old copy of The Catcher in the Rye.

I never realized anything good came out of reading. But my old Catcher in the Rye book came in handy when I needed to clean her face after a quickie behind the White Castle. "The Catcher in her Eye" is now a favorite of ours.

catcher in the rye

Catcher in the Rye was written by J. D. Salinger. It's a novel about a red hat wearing candyass who thinks all adults are phonies; failing to see the essential poseur that is so him! For some reason older Baby Boomers get all tear-eyed about this book, thinking it's the one that spoke for their generation which, unfortunately, we hear too much from already.

I found Catcher in the Rye to be boring

The Catch

The ‘fine print’ of relationships. The one piece of negative, personal information one must weigh against the known positive information when deciding whether or not to pursue a long-term romantic involvement.

He is absolutely perfect, The Catch is that he is divorced, still not over an ex, a virgin AND heavily medicated!

The Perfect Catch

Not to be confused with "the one"
A bf/gf you love
and will not marry or stay with forever...

Reece and Kelsey, two teenagers, were in love and lust.
Obviously,
although kelsey thought they were going to get married one day
they were not meant to be forever.
That, is the perfect catch.
Catch the love, let it go, pass it on, let it show ;)

chatchka

A small, useless object that is usually cheap and easy to lose.
A chatchka is usually given as a gift
Eg. A souvenir from another country

Friend 1: my granny got me another chatchka to add to the collection

Friend 2: lucky! I always end up losing mine

catcholic

A word that resembles "catholic", yet is not. Because a true catholic would never run a religious school for profit right next to playboy mexico headquarters.

"Guey! I go to that catcholic school where the principal drives a 'vette and playboy ships from next door!"

"Chingon!"
