The crafty art of hiding an item you want (but cannot afford to buy) in a carefully chosen place somewhere within the store to ensure the item will be there when you're able to return with the money. A way for someone with inadequate or no money to "reserve" an item for themselves at a later date. Anyone who's ever been poor has done this at least once in their life. Also known as "squirrelling".
Joe: "Ma sent me out to the drug store for her tampons yesterday, and that's when I found the cd I've been looking for, but it was the last one in the store. After the tampons, there wasn't even enough left for a damn Coke, that stingy, bloody-twatted bitch!!"
Jack: So, what happened?
Joe: I wanted to steal it, but you know, the whole "3 strikes" thing. So I found a spot in the store to put it on poor man's layaway until next Friday, when I get paid.

Get the Laya mug.A "top 10" university in the U.K. It's in the middle of nowhere, has really depressing weather, and student life involves getting stupidly drunk in grim bars in town, because there's honestly not much else to do in your free time. There's quite a few societies, but with the exception of international clubs, they mostly consist of weirdos who dress up as Harry Potter and do medieval reenactments. Classes and lectures are alright, but the campus is so big it that it can take up to half an hour to walk to class from your dorm. Highlight of the experience is making friends for life by bonding over the horrible weather and the terrible food they serve in northern England.
Owen:"Which University you going to mate?"
Mark: "I'm in Lancaster University"
Owen: "Ah mate it must be grim up north."
Mark: "Yea mate there's 300 rainy days per year and the food is terrible"

Get the Lancaster University mug.British WW2 heavy bomber designed by Roy Chadwick and built by Avro in the UK, as well as under license in Canada (Mk X). It evolved out of Chadwicks earlier design, the Avro Manchester, which was universally hated by all who were condemned to fly it, due to poor engine design. When Chadwick was able to get hold of 4 precious Rolls-Royce Merlin V-12 engines, he put them on the Manchester, lengthened the wings, and a legend was born.
The Lancaster was the mainstay of RAF Bomber Command from 1942 onwards, and was used for a variety of specialist tasks such as attacking the Ruhr Dams and sinking the Tirpitz. Its main role however, was in the great Area Raids which laid waste to many German cities by night whilst the Americans attacked by day.
It was the most effective bomb hauler in the Allies European Arsenal (the Boeing B-29 Superfortress could carry a larger bomb load, but was only employed in the Pacific against Japan towards the end of the War), and could carry almost twice the load of its US counterparts in Europe, these being the Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress and the Consolidated B-24 Liberator bombers.
Approximately 7000 Lancasters were built, of which roughly 4000 were lost on operational service, i.e. shot down by enemy night-fighters, anti-aircraft fire, or crashes.
Although controversy still rages over the employment of the Lancaster during the Strategic Air Offensive against Germany (Lancasters were the only bombers used by the RAF for the Dresden Raid of 13/14 Feb 1945 for example), there is little dispute that it was one of the greatest aircraft designs of the Second World War.

Get the Lancaster Bomber mug.Hmm...
A real heartbreaker.
You won't get over her, she has a way of lingering in the back of your mind. You'll have moments when you hate her but you love her. She probably gave you a taste of her love then pushed you away.
She's the girl you'll wish you treated better. Layan, Layan, Layan.
Keeps it real, works hard, a conversationalist, intimidatingly smart. Beautiful woman with a good heart.
Layan's are broken but beautiful, unknowingly takes on the role of the tortured genius. A perfectionist that's never satisfied.
Looking back, all Layan's ever wanted was time and loyalty. She'll love you hard and always treat you with respect. She'll put up with your disrespect until she's hurt enough to never come back.
I hope Layans heal from everything they don't talk about and I hope they stops letting their insecurities ruin good things for them.
