butterflies

the nervous, anxious knots you get in your stomach when you talk with, think about, or are in the presence of the person you love, or like very, very much.

Contrary to popular belief, this incredible feeling cannot be cured with kisses, but do it anyway:D

The Butterfield Special

A daring sexual maneuver that dates back to the time of the Butterfield clan, a fearsome group of nomadic warriors who were known for their brutality and sexual vigor. The Butterfield Special often leaves its victims impregnated and full of regret.
"Yo chad, did you really give her The Butterfield Special?"
"Hell yeah man, now Angie is impregnated and full of regret"

turned-on-butterflies

The fluttery, butterfly like sensation you get in your stomach when you are turned on. It's like the regular butterflies you feel, but you only get it when you are turned on.
Edward is really attractive, when he walked by I got the turned-on-butterflies.

Butterflies and Hurricanes

One of Muse's many great songs. It's on the album "absoultion". It features a heart-meltingly beautiful piano solo preformed by Matt Bellamy, i.e. love, in human form.
Lyrics for "Butterflies and Hurricanes"
"Change everything you are
and everything you were
Your number has been called

Fights and battles have begun
Revenge will surely come
Your hard times are ahead

Best, you've got to be the best
You've got to change the world
And use this chance to be heard
Your Time is now
Your Time is now

Change everything you are
And everything you were
Your number has been called

Fights and battles have begun
Revenge will surely come
Your hard times are ahead

Best, you've got to be the best
You've got to change the world
and use this chance to be heard
Your time is now
Your time is now

Don't let yourself down
Don't let yourself go
Your last chance has arrived

Best, you've got to be the best
You've got to change the world
and use this chance to be heard
Your time is now
Your time is now"

Sings Matthew Bellamy angelicly, simutaiously managing to alternate between piano and guitar.

suck it up buttercup

One of the best things you can say to someone who has dug themselves a nice, deep hole, and has fallen right into it.
"Shit. I didn't think anyone would tell her I said that!"
"Well, they did, so suck it up buttercup"

Buttering the Cat

In the disability rights community: attempting to help someone without asking if they need help, or in a way that is not actually helpful (and indeed may be harmful to the disabled person or to others).

Comes from a viral Twitter thread featuring Jorts the orange cat who was having trouble grooming himself. A well meaning but clueless human buttered Jorts in an attempt to teach him how to groom himself. This may or may not have resulted in a different cat being sick from licking the butter off of Jorts.
"Hey, don't just grab my chair; that's buttering the cat!"

"Stop buttering the cat, tonight's homework is easy!"
