couch commando

An individual(mostly males)who takes the television remote control and won't let anyone change the channel or take it from them. These words were originally heard in "Clueless", in which Cher calls Josh a "couch commando".

"Quit being a couch commando, I want to watch Cops"

"Can you change the channel? Why not? Well if you would stop being such a couch commando I wouldn't have to keep asking."

commercial

refers to a rapper who makes an album or song that caters to the mainstream media instead of the urban audience.

People don't want to buy his album anymore because it's too commercial, it has no realness.

commando

Quite possibly the funniest not-meant-to-be-funny-movie ever, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. Things he does in this movie include:
-Rips a huge metal pole off a wall and hurls it at main antagonist, striking him in chest and impaling him
-Dual wields M-60's with near infallible accuracy.
-Kills half a dozen people with a single grenade that explodes on impact
-Jumps off a plane from like 300 feet in the air and lands completely unharmed
-Chops off some dude's arm with an axe
-Hurls a buzz saw at some dude and slices his head in half
-Manages not to get hit by 2000+ bullets fired at him in a period of 3 min., without any cover or attempts to dodge
-Fires a rocket launcher(with 4 rockets in it)at a vehicle and blows it up, turns around and fires at another vehicle and blows it up, then blows up a couple more buildings with it, drops rocket launcher, and walks away casually.
-You get the idea.

I just watched Commando and laughed so hard I shat my pants.

going commando

Going commando is the practice of not wearing underwear under one's outer clothing. The term is theorised to be related to the much earlier term "going regimental", which refers to wearing the kilt military style, that is, without underwear.

Kilts have been traditionally worn without undergarments since their use as part of Scottish military uniform, leading to the invention of such expressions as "going commando" or"go regimental" or "military practice" for wearing no underwear. On the Western Front during the First World War, some Sergeants Major reportedly had mirrors tied to the end of golf clubs or walking sticks to inspect up and under the kilt at parade inspection. However, in 1940 the kilt was retired from combat due to the vulnerability of bare skin to chemical agents, although it was retained as the formal dress uniform of the regiments. In the 1950s, kilted soldiers on parade would be checked by the Sergeant Major using a mirror on the barracks floor. In 1997, a Black Watch soldier received wide press exposure, because of windy conditions during a military ceremony in Hong Kong.
