citizen maintenance

Having to fill out forms, make phone calls, go to offices, etc. for utilities, bills, services, etc.

I spent all morning at the DMV and then had to come home and try to get a hold of someone at the cable company to figure out why my service was shut off. I hate citizen maintenance!

low-maintenance jostle

Basically, a no-strings-attached sexual encounter. This could include a one-night-stand or the ultimate in sex-for-sport relationships: fuck buddies.

When I got home drunk the other night I was really horny and was able to have Sharmila come over for a low-maintenance jostle. Man, she can really suck cock.
