choose between the devil and the deep blue sea

(verb): to choose between two or more options, none of which suit your immediate purposes or none of whose consequences are very pleasant for you.
mother: Daniel I found yesterday you are doing pot. I won't stand for it to have a marijuana smoker and high school drop out in my house. Now choose between the devil and the deep blue sea. Either you go to night class, finish high school and then make something out of yourself or you can get a trade school job and move the hell out of my house. Your choice; now the ball is in your half court

Daniel; Oh well. whenever I have chosen my path, I'll come and talk to you.

Sea Jew

A slang for Norwegians, as they tend to make billions out of their oil rigs in the North sea.
Also, they tend to fish a lot and export it for a hefty profit. They literally drown in money.
I was on an airplane last night, looking out over the ocean I could see the dim lights of the Sea Jew money machines.

Mayberry by the sea

There's no such place, oceanfront property is too expensive to be anywhere near Mayberry. You also don't see the time and temperature displayed outside the bank in a coastal California coastal city like you would in Mayberry. San Diego isn't New York or Tokyo, but it isn't Mayberry either.
Mayberry by the sea wouldn't be in California if there was such a place. California is nothing like Mayberry. Back in the late 1930s it might have been more like Mayberry than it is now, but not today. Really though, nowhere west of Oklahoma is much like Mayberry, it's a different world.

Sea skunk

When you're on a cruise ship and you either step out onto the balcony or walk in the hallways of the state rooms and you get sucker punched with the smell of pungent weed.
We were walking around the cruise this morning, and we got a good whiff of sea skunk.
