Remainer

A person who believes that in brutally severing ties with the EU the UK will be worse off than it currently is.

Remainers always try to use facts and logic to prove that Brexit is a bad idea.

Dirty Cowboy Retainer

When your significant other has a dip in, and you proceed to ejaculate into there mouth. The one receiving the sperm then shows both the chew and sperm mixing into a warm stew. After a few seconds of basking, they swallow all the sperm and chew.

for my birthday, my wife performed the dirty cowboy retainer.

retained firefighter

A part time (volunteer) firefighter. They’re also known as retards, have zero capacity to retain any firefighting knowledge and have fuck all experience actually fighting any real fires (although they can spin a massive yarn about a big fire last year, even though they never went to it). They spend a lot of time playing dress ups and pretend to be real firefighters. Retained firefighters are always seen in public in some sort of fire related t-shirt, especially when not on duty. They can be identified by the 1990’s pager on their hip and the fact that they’ll tell you that they’re a fireman within 0.4 seconds of the start of ANY conversation. The only experience they really get is that of pressing the code 2 acknowledged button on the MDT.

My mate is a retained firefighter, he’s pager never goes off, but he’s always in uniform. Gosh he really loves those code 2’s.

Repained

To senselessly revisit an unenjoyable experience or decision despite it being spectacularly obvious to everyone around you it will change nothing.

Eg.
A Uni student asking for a remark of an exam that scored less than half the required pass mark.

Men bringing up old arguments they previously lost with their spouse.

Every Decision Review System call Tim Paine (Australian Cricket Captain) has made.

‘Smithy, Jono is heading over to chat up that glamour (good looking woman) again’
‘I bet he’s repained’

dental retainer

What a tooth-doctor gives an attorney to handle all of his malpractice-suits and other legal hassles.

Some dentists find lawyers with periodontal issues and then get said gum-pained stiffs to work for them for free by threatening to take away their dental retainers.
