n. A last hope of salvation from a dreadful end. Originally a last-minute reprieve from an execution but now a generic term.

The election Tuesday may ruin America no matter who wins.
Yeah. The only thing that can save us now is a governor's call.
And just who would the "governor" be in this case?
I do not know. God? George Washington? Putin? I am not a Poli-Sci major.

(n.) An after-hours text from one’s boss demanding they return to the office. A professional's Booty Call.
Originated after the French Revolution, when the proletariat was forced to work long hours at the boutique because ownership had been killed by the Guillotine. Today, is often answered by individuals with a crumbling social life or a disturbing obsession with their boss.
Those who respond to a Boutique Call will often matter-of-factly mutter “No emotions, just promotions” before rollerblading all the way back to the office, in decline.

Tom's Boutique Call led to "Quick Fix and Chill" session with his boss, as they watched HR videos and massaged each others' data.

Pedro: Dude, didn't know you like fat chicks!
Juan: Well I'm fat, too. And I like my girls with some curves!

Is when you yell out the names of all the people in the bar you've slept with just to see all of their eyes on you at once

When a sports official makes a really bad call that essentially guarantees a win for one team or player, then the tries to make up for it by making an insignificant ruling in favor of the team or player screwed over by the first call. The make-up call is the "vaseline" call because it's meant to lubricate the figurative anal rape of the first call to make it hurt a little less.
The refs in the 2/28/06 FL State - Duke basketball game had instructions to ensure a Seminole win, but at least they gave Duke a vaseline call near the end of the game.
