The Whole 8.9 Yards

Refering to the act of doing everything with a partner related to sex (foreplay, oral, etc.) up to and stopping short of penile insertion.

Alluding to the colloquial phrase "The whole nine yards", but stopping about 3.5 inches short of going all the way.

Jason: "Dang dude, what stopped you?"

whole nine yards

Does not come from military or football. It relates to the clothing industry. It is a term that tailors have used since the 1900's for denoting the extent that one wishes to invest in a custom-made suit. It takes exactly nine square yards of material to create a man's three-piece suit. If an individual desires a suit that is tailored to the "hilt" (double lined, etc.), he would request that the tailor should proceed with "the whole nine yards." Anything shy of nine yards would mean various alterations. This would lessen the overall quality of the suit.

Whole nine yards

Used since the 18th century to describe a ship.
'Ship' is a pretty homogenous term these days, but back then, to describe a vessel as a 'true' ship, it had to have 3 masts (fore, main, and mizzen) and on each of these were 3 sails (main, top, and topgallant) suspended from horizontal 'yards'. To handle so many sails, a fairly large crew is required. Warships carried much, much larger crews than merchantmen, and so it was only warships and the large, prestigeous merchant ships such as East Indiamen that could be described as having 'the whole (or full) nine yards'.

"There; hull-down and fine off the starboard bow. She's a warship alright; the whole nine yards"
