insurance rule

One of those seemingly ridiculous rules in sports or other public institutions that exist only to cover the asses of the insurance companies.

I can't believe Rick got a suspension for taking his mask off before leaving the ice - it must be an insurance rule.

Food insurance

Food insurance is a second meal ordered at the same time as your original meal. It is used as insurance in case you are still hungry. Not to be confused with a side order.

Chris got the Mac and cheese platter as food insurance. He is never sure if the spaghetti pizza will be enough.

ticket insurance

The one car going faster than you when you're speeding on the freeway. The general idea is that you can go as fast as you want as long as the other guy is going faster, that way if a cop sees you both speeding he will pull over the other guy and not you.

Wow, I'm going 80 in the fast lane and this jackass just zoomed past me. Ticket insurance!

memory insurance

A method of writing something down before you forget, whether on a piece of paper or on your arm or hand. May also include calling your own phone and leaving yourself a voice message, or emailing yourself. Basically a self-reminder.

Roommate 1: Can you give me a ride to the airport on Friday? My flight leaves at 6.
Roommate 2: Yeah hold on a sec, I'm gonna write that on a sticky note, just for memory insurance.

tilt insurance

When you know the action you are about to take is wrong, but you have to do it anyway because if you would have been right the result is much, much worse than if you were not.

I called the bet on the river with my flush even though the board had paired and there was a bet/raise to me. I had to pay my tilt insurance because if I lost this pot by folding to a worse hand I would have killed myself
