tincture of time

A small amount of time.

A Tincture is a preparation that contains a potent medicine and an extraction solvent; for example Opium and Alcohol. The solvent pulls elements of the medicine and thins it out.

This is a medical phrase which refers to the fact that the body will fix problems on its own if given time to do so. In fact many problems will resolve if given time, and are made worse by fussing over them.

Give your child Tylenol and tincture of time, and the fever will abate.

Cover the wound, watch for signs of infection, and apply tincture of time. It will heal shortly.

homeless all the time

Originated on Haight Street in San Francisco. There are so many homeless and street people there begging for money, beer, and left over food, that when a normal person who is dressed well, buzzed and going out for a good time is accosted by one of them (thereby killing your buzz) the non-homeless person may ask in an annoyed fashion “Why do you gotta be so homeless ALL THE TIME??!!!”. It is important to add “all the time” because they continue to be homeless and annoying every time you return to Haight Street.

This phrase can be extended to any situation in which another person is being incessantly annoying or pestering you for the same thing, ALL THE TIME!

Example #1 You are walking down Haight Street and you see a man with a “why lie I need a beer sign” and he accosts you and asks for your change. You say “Man, you are here every day asking for beer money, you should get a job! Why do you have to be so homeless ALL THE TIME???

Example #2
Person 1: Dude, can I borrow $10 dollars?
Person 2: Dude! You ask me for money every time I see you, why do you gotta be so homeless all the time?!
