Hang a lantern

To point out some inconsistency in order to allow for its acceptance and to move things along. This is a common plot device in the entertainment industry, in which the entertainers give some sort of wink or nod that allows the entertained to suspend disbelief of some unthinkable feat and carry on with minimal interruption.

Feeling whiney and knowing that he was partaking in the practice of Vaguebooking, Tom was sure to hang a lantern on it by adding a #Vaguebooking hash tag to his post.

Spanish Lantern

The same as a dutch oven, farting under the blanket and pulling it over your partners head, although to complete the spanish lantern, light a match after the proceeded fart.

John Spanish lanterned kate last night and she no longer had eye brows.

Chinese Lantern

When a man stretches his sack over a flashlight placed directly behind it, causing his scrote to glow red like a Chinese lantern.

Jake lit up that room with his Chinese lantern.

Jason transformed his batwing into a Chinese lantern with a flashlight.

Matt added some ambiance to the dinner party with his Chinese lantern.

Adirondack lantern

Noun - A water vessel (e.g. kayak) where the semi-translucent hull is illuminated from within at night; like a Floating Chinese lantern.

We put headlamps in the bow and stern of a rotomolded kayak to make it glow and paddled across Upper Saranac Lake.

I popped some really bright glow sticks in my Hobie Cat hulls for night sailing, and it looked like the Star Trek Next Generation Enterprise nacelles at the beginning of the show intro.

A group of kayakers went on an Adirondack Lantern paddle last night.
