cableese

Noun: old 20th Century language used by journalists beginning in the 1920s and lasting until the 1950s...Sending a wire or cable to report the news was expensive...Western Union and other wire services charged by the letter not the word...so reporters in order to save money used a "version" of slang to get stories to their editors, and save on the wire bill...

Johnson filed her story at the local Western Union office, in order to save money she sent the following wire in cableese to her editor about the film being well received in the countryside: "Hicks n stix luv pic"...

Chabert Moment

A colloquial expression developed from the movie Colonel Chabert. The phrase began when the inventors of the phrase became mesmerized with the French movie and began watching instead of performing there normal chores and duties. They lost a lot of productive time watching the movie and ended up making up their work the rest of the day. This expression refers to act of not doing what you are supposed to do and knowing that you will pay for it later.

I had a Chabert Moment when I watched T.V. instead of doing my homework.
