Jerry can

A 20 liter (5.3 gallon), handled can meant for transporting gas and other liquids, formerly constructed of pressed steel.

Jerry cans were developed in Germany in the 1930s and were widely used by American troops in WWII. Troops would Jerry-rig up to five of these cans to their vehicles, enabling them to carry gasoline, diesel fuel, kerosene, and/or water.

The term "Jerry" is a slang for the word "German".

"Don't drink out of the green Jerry can!!"

Schrödinger's Can

A beverage can that has been open for days and may or may not have a bug in it. You can't see into the can to get a clear answer, therefore the can simultaneously does and doesn't have a bug in it until you pour out the whole thing and see for yourself.

"I wouldn't drink that, man. It's been out for a while. It's a real Schrödinger's can at this point."

sardine can

Colloquial term for a small fishing boat.

I bought a Lund for $5,000 last week to go bass fishing on lake Kalamaka. Great price even though it's just a simple, bare boned, sardine can, with not a lot of passenger accommodation. Your ass will hurt after 5 minutes of resting on the wooden bench.

Can Hand

The feeling you get when you are craving an ice-cold beer. Your hand starts to tremble and forms the shape of a claw, suitable for picking up a can. The only way to overcome these trembles is to fill the empty space between your thumb and fingers with a cold one.

Alex: Help! (hand starts shaking)
Justin: Oh god Alex has a severe case of can hand.
Doug: Quick get him a beer.
(Justin places beer in Alex's hand)
Alex: Thanks that was a close one.

Can of Poop

When someone has a raunchy ass fart (preferably warm and must be odor filled), cups their hand over their ass, and catchs this bundle of joy. Your next move takes precise timing as you only have seconds to deliver this devastating smell by cupping your hand over the victims nose and/or mouth while stating "Can of Poop!"

My day was shattered when someone ahole decided to give me a Can of Poop.
