system of ascending precedents

a sequence of events wherein each event sets a new, higher standard that will act as a precedent for all subsequent events.
-As far as I know, this phrase has never been coined or defined before.

Bob tells funny stories and does spontaneous imitations at work. each one is a little funnier than the one before. his co-worker's expectations track with his performance so that now he has to maintain the gradient of improvement every time he opens his mouth or, - and this is the key- they will respond as if it was less funny than it really is. He has trapped himself in a system of ascending precedents.

Porcelain Steak

Really now Wally?? Did you have to leave that porcelain steak in my toilet? Couldn't you have just flushed it?

underwater porcelain technician

Basically a fancy name for "dishwasher". My ex felt inferior to some of his friends who had cool-sounding jobs, so I made this one up to make him laugh and feel better :)

JOE: Hey Bob, what are you doing with yourself these days?

BOB: Oh, hey Joe. I'm the assistant to the vice president of sales. How about you?

JOE: I'm an underwater porcelain technician.

Price Gouging

Price gouging is a term for a seller pricing much higher than is considered reasonable or fair. In precise, legal usage, it is the name of a felony that applies in some of the United States only during civil emergencies. In less precise usage, it can refer either to prices obtained by practices inconsistent with a competitive free market, or to windfall profits.

Take a $16 ticket, add $5.90 convenience charge, then add $2.20 for ordering online, and that's a 52% markup for a ticket to buy from ticketmaster.com

FIFTY PERCENT MARKUP, now THAT IS PRICE GOUGING!!!

Pissing like you hate porcelain

The act of urinating so forcefully that anyone in earshot is convinced you have a hatred of toilets/urinals.

I held it for so long that when I finally went, the guy next to me said "you were pissing like you hate porcelain."
