The delicate maneuver required to halt a well-rounded, fully formed, ripened-to-perfection fart from slipping, ripping, or bubbling out of your cheeks. A highly skilled, Olympics-esque discipline that requires immense core strength and buttock muscles that can grip like a vise combined with careful facial control that doesn't belie your discomfort. Useful ability for anyone that takes elevators, rides in subways, or flies in planes frequently.
I was on a flight to LA sitting next to this gorgeous environmental engineer and wanted to let one fly. But that would have ruined everything so had to pull a fart stop while we discussed climate change and our favorite taco joints.

A "sushi stop" is when a driver at a stop sign slows down but does not make a complete stop before continuing on. This practice, officially a "rolling stop", is especially common in California, so it became referred to as a "California Rolling stop". A California Roll is a type of sushi (favored by white people), so we call it a Sushi Stop!
"I saw so many cars making sushi stops this morning on my way to work."
"Dude, you totally just made a sushi stop. If you get pulled over I'm gonna be so annoyed."

An idiom that refers to a very attractive person. In most contexts, the negation of the word is used, usually to pin down someone who is moderately attractive but nothing mindblowing (see example)
Yeah man, she’s pretty cute. I mean she’s not stopping traffic or anything, but she’s definitely easy on the eyes.

During the holidays, my family went on a road trip in our new car. Bearing in mind the fact that we have a don't eat in the car rule, we stopped at a rest area to stop and gobble; in order to make it to Granny's house!
