A sarcastic phrase that is given to those who take a lot of time to get ready to go somewhere. A dead giveaway of this type of person is the length of time spent in the washroom primping. Makeup for women and manscaping for men, usually is close to or more than an hour. Another dead giveaway is the amount of apparel they try on before choosing one to go with.
Amanda what are you doing? I told you I was going to the mall an hour ago and I'm still sitting here and you've been stuck in the washroom the whole time. Are you off to Hollywood or what? I should have never told her and just left.
