Camaryn

Another name for "Supergirl". She's also unbearably adorable (think of a litter of puppies and kittens on steroids kind of adorable). Oh, and she's also a ninja.

Dude, you just got Camaryn'd!

Office canary

Office canary: a worthless or virtually worthless employee who will definitely be fired before you, but if that person does get fired, you had better look out.

Very similar to the canarys miners would take into the mine with them to warn them about poison gas. If the canary died, it was time to get out of dodge…

Where did the girl go that sat near the door?

She got let go and now I'm worried as she was my office canary.

beef canary

The person in a friend group that eats questionable food(such as foreign beef) first, while the other friends wait to see if the food is safe to eat.

Rob's a total beef canary for eating the lamb from that buffet. He's been on the shitter for hours.

Canary Day

A Canary Day is a colloquial expression for a day of immense slothfulness, rest, or otherwise inhibition to perform the daily duties and routine of ones life. Often it is associated with drug use, abnormal sleeping schedules, and containment in a closed space for the entirety or majority of the day.

"I just had a 'Canary Day' week. I was so stressed from last week's work that I just couldn't focus on anything this week!"

canary

Someone that you let go first to make sure it is safe. Used sometimes by video-gamers. For instance, when the canary gets killed, springs the trap, takes the fall etc, it will tell you where the dangers/enemies are. Origin: coal miners used to keep a canary in the mine, when it died they knew there was poison gas.

Looks dangerous in there, let the canary go first.

I Want to be Your Canary

The best play ever made!

Made about a princess set to marry a prince, but who fell in love with a peasant. In the end, the princess is killed by the peasant who tried to kill the king.

I wish I had tickets to see I Want to be Your Canary!

blue canary

Firefighter slang for a police officer at a fire or accident involving hazardous materials. Usualy it's because cops will approach the scene without any breathing apparatus or protective gear. When you see the cop keel over, call the mop and glow squad and get the hell out!

Oh shit! We got an officer down by the overturned truck carrying Benzene. Call Chemtrec!
