Comfort years

A period of time, usually around 5 years when someone around the age of 30-45 (usually a man) gains weight, doesn’t exercise very much and enjoys wine, beer and good food. Comfort years are often followed by a ‘get fit’ regime and weight loss. Someone in their comfort years usually has a belly.
‘Wow, you’re really getting a beer belly on you. Maybe you should try some exercise!’
‘Just enjoying my comfort years! I’ll lose the weight in a few years...’

Big year

How do you become

the greatest birder in the world?

You have to win the Big Year.

What's a Big Year?

Here, I'll let this English guy tell you.

Well into the 19th century,

Americans celebrated Christmas Day

with contests to kill

the most birds in a single day.

In 1900, Audubon Society ornithologist

Frank Chapman

suggested Americans should

count them instead,

leading eventually

to the creation of the Big Year,

a competition to see

the greatest number of birds

in North America in a calendar year.
"Didn't you tell me that a Big Year killed your marriage to Steph in '03?"

"First of all, I was married to Bridget in '03."

"Didn't you tell me that a Big Year killed your marriage to Bridget?"

"A contributing factor, but, no, not the main reason. There were so many other problems with that marriage."

Jacob of the Year

(noun) award given to someone that showcases the Jacob-like it factor.

They may not be the loudest in the room, nor the life of the party. This person will say, or more likely, do something that will stand out and be memorable. When asked how one would describe said person, the person describing usually hesitates by trying to find the right adjectives and just ends up saying the person's name. If you are that kind of person, you are the Jacob of the Year (JOY).
Person A: How's that new guy on the team this year? I think Matt is his name.
Person B: Yea he's good. Just joined the club this year.
Person A: What's he like?
Person B: He's a... he's like... he's in the running for Jacob of the Year.
Person A: Ha, right on!

Sears-Years

The time span when Sears Department Stores and catalogs were the only and therefore the best method of shopping and buying merchandise. The analog marketplace.
Well us old folks who grew up in the SEARS-YEARS... aren’t used to shopping online; or having to ‘research’ where to buy specific items. Back in the SEARS-YEARS, it was simple and easy to trust in the quality and value.

Groundhog Year

A year in which every day feels the same as the day before, and the day before that, stuck in your own private Punxsutawney thanks to Covid.
March 2020 to March 2021 felt like Groundhog Year to many, their working, academic and social lives constrained, confined, out of reach, the old forward motion of days, weeks, months a diminishing dream.
