Like a pool of cantaloupes

A very aggressive and bad phrase used to describe a not so good time or moment. It comes in many different sayings depending where you're at, other ways to put it are "like a tidal wave of cantaloupe", "an ocean of cantaloupe", "a stream of cantaloupe", and many more. Most commonly this phrase is used to describe an event and how you felt towards it, but it can also be managed to describe your overall mood in general.

The anti of this is "like a pool of melons", which is used to describe a good time or vibe. Both are commonly used in the same context, but feel free to get creative with your melon and cantaloupe water phrases!

The origins of this phrase are unknown, but it's rumored to have appeared in a small town when a man very upset at another ruined a stream by pouring a bunch of cantaloupes in it. This act of anger is what gave this phrase its negative nature and meaning. Most people prefer to stay on the melon side of things due to the more positive point of view, but it's okay to feel a bit of a cantaloupe stream every now and again too.
Person 1: Man, life has been like a pool of cantaloupes lately.
Person 2: I'm sorry to hear that dude, I hope you get a rainfall of melons in your future.
Person 1: Thanks, man.

pushing the antelope

Variation of ‘pushing the envelope’ where an act already on the edge of reasonable behaviour is combined with the awkwardness of trying directing an unruly antelope.

Much more messy than simply Pushing The Envelope; which as the name implies is actually boring and administrative.
woah Kenneth was really pushing the antelope last night at dinner with his audacious behaviour!

Lantelope

A cross between an antelope and a lion. First discovered in ancient Thera on the island of Santorini. It was supposedly made when the ancient elder antelope decided to do it's yearly ritual and rape a baby lion and thus the lantelope was born.
As said before the elder antelope one this is supported by numerous frescoes found in the area. The most noted fresco is the miniature frieze, you can see in this picture alion chasing an atelope that just stole a baby as a super mega volcano of death exploded.
Another theory of the creation of a Lantelope is that a crazy scientist dude decided to chuck both the animals in a bag and let the magic happen. However this theory is possibly not as well argued because wouldn't a lion eat an antelope?
