security theatre

Bloated, inconvenient, and invasive measures that are supposed to add protection but in reality only offer the illusion of extra protection while providing no real added safety.

Secure that butter

Used to command someone to be careful with a precious resource, especially to prevent their talents, positive traits, or advantages of any kind from going to waste or turning into something negative. We are all given a certain amount of butter for our bread, and the more we have, the harder it can be to secure. All it takes is one moment of carelessness, and that butter may slip off the bread and into the toaster as we are trying to use its residual heat to warm the butter to an optimal temperature in the post-toasting phase of toast preparation. The next thing we know, the toaster is giving off a noxious scent of burnt butter as a lingering reminder of the mistake we have made.
Girl, you best secure that butter! You have a lot going for you, but I'd hate for it to fall into the toaster and haunt you forever.

Secure Waiting Space

Originally opened as a "waiting space" for homeless men, the Secure Waiting Space is a Hennepin County funded overflow shelter operated by Catholic Charities. It is located at 1000 Currie Avenue North, Minneapolis, MN 55403.

It houses around 150-200 men a night. The first floor of the shelter consists of thin mats on a floor, and the second floor is called Pay-for-Stay. Beds are around $4.00 a night, and men must be sober to stay on the second floor.

Shelter workers and case managers refer to Secure Waiting Space as "1000 Currie" or "Secure Waiting," but homeless people almost always call it tramp camp.
Where is Secure Waiting Space? Are you talking about tramp camp? Oh yah, now I know what you mean.

SU Security Guard

Someone that wakes up early to enter the student union. They tend not to go to classes and they will be there 99% of the time. Legend has it it that if you say their name 3 times they’ll appear.

national security issue

In the United States, this is a euphemism for "personally embarrassing to someone with power."
The FBI has released the full results of the years-long investigation, redacting only those sections that are a national security issue.
