Old White Lady Syndrome

When a person patronizes or orders others around to do simple things, entitled to others caring for their needs and wants. Other people’s needs are not as important no matter the urgency.

Person 1: I need to go to the restroom. OWLS person: I need my pillow fluffed, can you hand me my chapstick I need my toes covered completely.
Person 1: I almost peed my pants because she has OWLS (old white lady syndrome) and needed everything done for her.

An Old Idea Of Heinz Rolfes

When - in politics - a member of the minority party suggests an idea that is ignored, but a little down the road a member of the reigning party brings up the same thing and it gets approved instantly.

Do you remember the voting about that reasonable bill being struck down two years ago? -- Yes, however it got approved last week by the leading majority as an old idea of Heinz Rolfes!

Rubbing the old cake

When you have people coming over to visit and you want to ensure that they never visit again. Historically stems from people rubbing a slice of cake on the floor and dusty surfaces to ensure it tastes bad, leaving a 'bad taste' for the visitors.

Oh no, my family is coming over to visit. I guess we are going to be rubbing the old cake, again.
