Borrowed time

Literally, when you're in the military and you're going away on a mission that doesn't involve signifigant risk of life, e.g. deployed to Germany as opposed to Iraq, but you make it should like you're going to die.

In general, making an impending non-threatening situation sound like you're risking life and limb.

Will: Wanna go to Chickie's and Pete's tonight?
Rich: Damn... I could really go for some crab fries... Well, I'd like to go, but I'm on borrowed time.
Will: Really? Why, what's up?
Rich: I have to clean the gutters in my house. They're filthy.

Part-time friends

When you are "friends" with someone you work with or go to school with but do not have contact with that person outside of the office/classroom.

Jim: Dude you're always talking with Ryan in class, do you guys hang out a lot after school?

Sean: Naw man, we're just part-time friends.

Tom Time™

A generic catch-all for THAT guy in your friend group: always at his place, his terms, on his time. The "Tom" can be cordial or a total asshat. Regardless, it's his way.

Looks like it's Tom Time™ again for the 4th of July party.

daylight wasting time

a more appropriate term for daylight saving time since a lot of time is wasting on the silly ritual of resetting clocks a couple times a year

I hate daylight wasting time, it's such a hassle resetting all my clocks, at least the time on my cell phone resets itself automatically.

big time

A little guy that goes to a casino, club, party, or some gathering and is given respect that he has not earned, but is given a chance to prove himself or to reassure him he is accepted. In a friendly way to acknowledge his confidence or his courage despite his small stature. It's a sincere compliment with no intended sarcasm.

You cool big time, you cool you got sevens.

half time talk

The point, halfway through a threesome when the two male participants change ends and discuss strategy.

Martha was more demanding than initially thought. Barry and Ted discussed how to up their game during the half time talk.
