knock on some doors

When your boomer parents still think that you can apply for jobs by physically going to a business and asking if there are any jobs available, just like they did back in the day, before the popularity of the internet or pre-2000.
Dad: why don't you get off your arse and get a job.
Son: I've been looking online for weeks and applied for everything I can, there's nothing new.
Dad: Your not looking hard enough, go out and knock on some doors. That's what I did when I was your age.
Son: Dad, nobody does that anymore, employers and job agencies do everything online now. Even the job centre posts their own stuff there.
Dad: omg kids these days, don't know how good they have it. When I was your age I walked 20 miles to work and back barefoot whilst carrying a bag of cole on my back, I got paid 2 bob a week, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
Son: stfu dad, stop lying and get with the times.

The girl next door

"the girl next door" is a girl that's most of the time, quiet, to herself, loves helping others even if it's to the extent of her own health. Aside of have no self preservation she has a LOVE for drawing, reading and LOVES to laugh at the wrong times.

Sometimes the stuff she reads isn't the holy est but it works for her. Don't go in her at home library!

She's a different kind of pretty. She's not the normal "basic girl pretty" her looks shines from her different unique features.. her cool eyes, her hair, her jawline, her socially ackward smile, her freckles, her nose. Everything about her is unique an it draws you in and you don't know why.

door holding bum

Also known as a DHB! The majority of these bums tend to hang around major transportation centers in NYC such as Port Authority and Grand Central. As the name implies, they are holding doors open and most importantly, waiting for your generous tip.
Where the hell is a damn door holding bum when you need one? Not only am I going to have to touch a dirty door handle, but I’m going to miss my subway!
