Ben expected the party to go perfectly as planned. However, the band did not turn up, the drinks table was knocked over, three men were taking to hospital for the consumption of too much whisky an his car broke down on the way back. Although Ben had had a great time there, he found that he was not satisfied with the outcome because he had had very high expectations.

Get the expectation mug.If you're a male who decides to stay abstinent until either marriage or a committed relationship, the exception made to only engage in cunnilingus (oral stimulation on the female genitalia) as a form of erotic foreplay or as an alternative to sex.
This may seem highly hypocritical to many people since "oral sex" is viewed as being just as intimate as vaginal intercourse, but the idea is keeping your own private area "pure" until you have either met the right person and/or have gotten married.
The cunnilingus exception is not for everyone, but it is a personal lifestyle choice that a few people (including myself) have made. This can also be for religious, spiritual, or philosophical reasons.

America's greatness, America's exceptional greatness, is not based on that fact that we are the most powerful, most prosperous - and most generous - nation on earth. Rather, those things are the result of American Exceptionalism.

Get the Bellucci-Exception mug.Concept, similar to American Exceptionalism, frequently heard in Italy, that Italian food is, beyond comparison, the very best in the world, and that the cuisine of every other country sucks to the point that it cannot be eaten without vomiting.
This phenomenon can seem further exaggerated by the religious belief of many Italians that their mother or grandmother makes absolutely the _best_ Melanzane alla Parmigiana in the world, and nobody elses can compare.
If you experience this phenomenon, just agree. To argue can put yourself in extreme danger.

"Man I made a mistake tonight: didn't really want to suggest to Gianni and Francesca that we eat Tapas, did I?"
"Oops. To Gianni that's almost as bad as suggesting there's a restaurant that can make Tiramisu as well as his Mamma! So you experienced your first Spaghetti Exceptionalism, did you?"
"Exactly! And then Helen made the mistake of suggesting that pasta every day is boring, and she fancied a Thai - didn't wanna do that!"
"Nooooooo! Thai food to an Italian? That's like suggesting that you put the first course on the same plate as the meat... Outrageous!"
"Did you ever go to Barcelona, Pinuccia?"
"Oh yes, Penelope. You have a wonderful city! I love Barca so much but I couldn't eat the food. It was disgusting! My mother had to send me food parcels every week, and by the time I came home, I was fifteen pounds thinner! I am never going there again."
"Oh no, Pinuccia! You didn't like our food?"
"It's foul, Penelope! It's sooo bad. How did you ever survive? But Italian food is the best in the world you know. And my Mamma makes the best Spaghetti con Vongole in all of Genova. Would you like to come at the weekend and try some? You will be very grateful for everything she can teach you!"
