blue-light

One of the "Select" Bx12 buses that run from the corner of Edson Ave. and Bartow Ave. in the Bronx in New York, to the corner of 207th St. and Broadway in Manhattan, New York. The buses are run on an experimental basis to relieve overcrowding on this much-used run: one must insert a Metrocard into a special machine at key stops along the bus route in order to get a paper receipt, then board the bus from the REAR. After several minutes the bus driver will collect the paper receipts. Named for the blue lights that flash at the top, showing that the buses are the "Select" route.

I love to see that blue-light come along---it's a colorful addition to the road!

Get the blue-light mug.

gas-discharge light

Da super-bright-and-hot "flaming lantern" dat results when an a**h**e "buddy" of yours surreptitiously "flicks his Bic" near yer backside when you were in da middle of a long raspy spluttery rectal-trumpet expulsion, turning said ass-blast into a butt-blowtorch.

Just like those blindingly-brilliant and annoyingly-blue-white headlights dat have shown up on cars recently, a human-based gas-discharge light can indeed produce a blazingly-dazzling display of illumination; da major difference, of course, is dat said enormously-shocking flash occurs at da rear of da "vehicle" instead of at da front, and so it's more of a "tail-light" --- literally, since it comes out of your "tail".

Lighting a Match

Used to describe something or someone who is simple and authentic, like someone who prefers using a match to a lighter. IE: Going to farmers markets, paying in cash, going on walks, driving stick, outgoing, likes to try new places, has a favorite hole-in-the-wall restaurant, cooking eggs, etc

Wow Jane just walked all the way to the farmers market on the other side of town to buy some organic eggs in cash, that’s so lighting a match.
