(having guessed the meaning of an unfamiliar word with many synonyms based on context clues, asking if any were correct, and learning they were all at least decently accurate:)
I was kind-of hovering the bleachers with that one, anyway.

Get the Gee-Hovermug. A truly remarkable feat of concentration and resonance, which has an effect of levitation a few feet above the attic, when 3 or more people join hands and produce the frequency that cannot be heard. A competent ground crew is recommended, particularly if one or more people in the group cannot be trusted to maintain absolute focus, in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds, to simply produce the specific frequency, and to conceal the position of the participants high above the attic, ideally in the lower stratosphere, if the harmonic resonance approaches the upper limits of sonic viability, without causing shockwaves.
The Hover would have worked , if Gahrsten VanVöchenstein listened to the experienced hovers, and stayed as part of the ground crew, so that Broccoli Rob would be unaware of the altitude we had achieved.

Get the The Hovermug. When you enter a public ladies' washroom so nasty (urine on the floor immediately in front of the toilet, and you don't know what's crawling on the toilet seat) that you have to stand with your feet shoulder-width or farther apart (avoiding the urine puddle), drop your breeches and skivvies (pants/underwear), and hover-squat over the throne to pee. Woman readers will understand what I'm talking about.
I needed to pee, so I went into the public washroom. No word of a lie, someone forgot to flush the toilet in the first stall I came to. Someone peed on the floor in front of the toilet in the second stall I went into, so I had to do a standing, hovering spread-eagle to pee, so I didn't have to step in the urine. Uggghhh!!!
