all wool and a yard wide

A term derived from the garment industry, meaning of high quality and/or genuine. Since material that was made of one consistent fibre, such as wool, was often thought of as being best for clothing, and since fabric that was made in yard widths was best for hand tailors to work on, this was considered the criteria for excellence.

A:" Have you seen the new girl in the accounts department?"

Wide-Nine

1) American football defensive line formation popularized by former Tennessee Titans and current Philadelphia Eagles coach Jim Washburn.

Formation requires defensive ends to line-up "wide" on the outside shoulder of offensive tackles. Ends also typically lineup in a three-point stance with heads curled to the ground.

This offers line a better angle for rushing the passer, but leaves the interior of the line vulnerable to the inside running game, especially if linebackers are inferior.

2) Rear-entry sexual position in which the recieving partner spreads his or her legs as far as possible, while crouching in a three-point stance, with their back slightly arched, and head curled to the ground.

Requires recieving partner to have great leg strength, and leaves both parnter subject to injury if performed on a non-sturdy surface, such as a water bed.

"The Philadelphia Eagles wide-nine formation has not been successful, due to the horrific play of their linebackers and safeties."

"If you want me to get into a wide-nine, get your ass on the floor. I almost pulled a hamstring trying that shit the last time. You need to get rid of that water bed, anyway."

Whole Wide Facebook

A 21st Century designation indicating massive magnitude. Whereas in the past one might utter the phrase 'whole wide world,' such phrasing now seems quaint, and has been usurped by its replacement, 'whole wide facebook.'

You're the bestest mom in the whole wide facebook!

You'll never find anyone else in the whole wide facebook as awesome as I am.
