prom promise

a bullshit declaration that some high school students are forced to sign by their goody goody two shoes parents that says that they won't use alcohol or drugs during prom night. Ah-ha-ha-hahahahahahahahah!

Prom Promise is an idea spawned by extreme MADD-types, Tipper Gore-types and soccer moms. If you resort to having your kids make such chicken shit pledges like that then you don't really trust them and you ain't raising them up in a good way. If you've done your max to rear them right then you have to let them loose.

promisery note

A contract that typically gives moderate-to-acute grief to one or both parties.

Lending money is never a good idea, but it can be especially painful between family and friends, since their promisery notes can create tension in their amicable feelings if things do not proceed exactly as planned.
