Any Port in the Storm

Sailor Dialect meaning, essentially: when you're in trouble, any way out is a good way out.
Y'see, back when people sailed the seven seas with reckless abandon, a crew was more likely to find the nearest port than to risk ship and crew in a life-threatening storm. This phrase is probably most applicable to the pirate-sorts, as this phrase suggests that anything is better than getting screwed, and pirates liked that sort of shady-around-the-edges shiznit.
(thunder, lightening.)
Pirate #1: 'Tis cap'n's orders ter drop anchor at the nearest port!
Pirate #2: Aye, any port in the storm, sez i.

Math Student #1: Dude, I may have cheated on that math test, but I stayed up all night watching reruns of Cheers! What else was I supposed to do?

calm before the storm

When you're holding it in, there will often be about 5-10 minutes where you really have to go, followed by another 5-10 minutes where the feeling seems to go away. This feeling is the calm before the storm, and you should take advantage of it and find a bathroom ASAP. Because when the feeling of having to go comes back, it's gonna be 10x worse.
Bob: Man, I really gotta go.
Joe: Okay then, I'll pull into this gas station.
Bob: Never mind, it's going away. I think I can hold it in longer.
Joe: No you can't, that's the calm before the storm. I don't want you pissing yourself in my car.
