In France, the negotiating "dance" a tourist must engage in to receive anything NOT on the menu – or sometimes, to even get something ON the menu. "I would like some Chantilly cream on my chocolate cake." "C'est impossible. That only comes on the mousse." "Can I pay extra?" "Non." "Can I buy one of each dessert, and just have you put the Chantilly cream on the cake." "Non, that's not on the menu." "Fine, I'll just take the cake." (Waiter brings cake with Chantilly cream on it.)
I had to dance the French Tango with that waiter to get a glass of milk (something VERY uncommon in France).

Get the French Tangomug. When you delete Tinder because you find someone you really like but it almost instantly falls through with that person and then you have to re-download the app...

Get the tinder tangomug. A Tango that has grown accustomed to the indoor lifestyle. Would not cut it out in the "Fields" as they have been disconnected from their roots for too long. Typically Black in nature.

Get the House Tangomug. An IT guy who owns a fast car that always seems to be in the shop. He lives life in the fast lane, and can always be found giving useful, but unsolicited advice to others. Tangoes are superior and experienced complainers, and always invoke fear into the hearts of customer service teams.
Worker 1: Our IT guy is working from home today. Apparently his car is in the shop.
Worker 2: Gosh, he is acting like such a James Tango.
