Jogging my wires

When someone keeps insistently harping on you.
Quit jogging my wires as I won't be responsible for when they short.

No 8 wire

New Zealand term for "we used our ingenuity to fix it".

(The origin of this expression could be found on New Zealand sheep and dairy farms when farmers used to build and repair their own fences using No 8 gauge wire. They had so much of this wire they used it to fix almost anything. Cars, tractors, haybailers, etc. - anything that still worked was often held together with this No 8 wire.

Now days everything in NZ is measured in the metric SI system - the same wire measures at 3.26 mm! Who's going to say "use some 3.26....", however the expression has stuck with the older generations in New Zealand).
Nobody knew how to fix the washing machine. In the end Tom used some No 8 wire. That fixed it.

When I get stuck on a problem I always say to use a bit of No 8 wire.

Wineshots

A ritual commonly displayed by inhabitants of Geneva , Switzerland. The ritual consists in highly educated people getting together to celebrate their unpaid internships and/or financial shortcomings that have led to, a partial or full, financial dependency on their parents until what is considered, in most societies, to be a very old age. The ritual consists of people getting together and downing full cups of "Mountain" wine, which is the cheapest drink in the region, at any public park while utilizing disposable cups. However, anyone can engage in the ritual anywhere in the world as long as these people fulfill the following 5 conditions. First, they have to be at least 25 in age and, at least partially, financially dependent on parents. Second they have to be enrolled in, or have completed, a master's degree or above. Third, they have to do so with any type of wine which the bottle costs less than $3, converted to the respective currency of course. Fourth, they have to do so at any park or public event which one does not have to pay to attend. Finally, they have to down the full cup of wine utilizing any type of disposable container.
