picking violets

Picking violets is part of the flower code for lesbians. The phrase comes from the famous poet Sappho of Lesbos (for whom the word lesbian was named) and it was thought that Sappho would give violets to the girl who she was wooing.

“all the violet tiaras,
braided rosebuds, dill and
crocus twined around your young neck” -Sappho

Picking violets:
Me: picked any violets lately?
Girl: No but maybe we can pick some together?

Me: (thinking) yay she’s gay!

Picking your teeth

When someone says they're picking someone's teeth, they're changing their mouth to get you to say something that they want you to, usually for a setup or to make them mad.

Sorry I have to study for a couple of hours.
Sounds like a lot of fun! Are you having fun?
No??
Haha yeah I'm just picking your teeth.
