toughing it out

Is when you really don't want to do something, but it needs to be done. Toughing it out is one of the hardest things to practise on a daily basis. If you can accomplish the "thoughing it out" moral than you will be un-stoppable!
"I was up all night drinking and I had to be at work by 5am... I really dont want to be here, but I'm toughing it out."

Jon- "ah man hold on a sec, I got a sliver in my finger"
Gabe- "dude just tough it out we only have five more logs to load"

coming out

1. An awakening as to who you really are in terms of sexual orientation and attraction, which usually doesn't fit mainstream heterosexism. Coming out means figuring out that you are lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual, etc., and it happens in stages across a certain period of time. One aspect is coming out to yourself, a process that ends at some point.
2. Deciding to tell certain people in your life that you are lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual, etc. This is a never ending process, because every time you move, change jobs, or make new friends you have to decide whether to share your sexual orientation or not. It's not always a good idea, because there is still prejudice and discrimination in workplaces.
3. Activists make public declarations about their sexual orientations as lesbians, gay men, bisexuals, pansexuals, etc., not to solidify their identities or to determine if their friends are truly friends, but to reduce the invisibility of these marginalized identities by advocating for acceptance and affirmation in mainstream society.
1. When Ethan realized he was bisexual, he came to understand and accept his sexual orientation by coming out to himself but not to anyone else.
2. While Jennifer was coming out, she decided to tell her friends and queer acquaintances about her lesbian sexual orientation but not her parents or coworkers.
3. After many years of being accepted as a gay man at work, among his family and friends, and within himself, Tim Cook, CEO of Apple, decided that his coming out would extend to a public declaration so he could use his good fortune and safe life to do something to help youth coming out into more dangerous situations.

Did Rob bring the beer to the pot luck like he said?

Ugh, just like Rob to Juan out.

quizzing out

To awkwardly scrunch one's arms, contort one's hands, screw up and scrunch one's face, cross one's eyes, or straighten one's fingers, in a way that is synonymous to the awkwardness and the "I've just been poisoned"ness of the mutated rats in that Quizno's commercial.
That kid was totally quizzing out in front of everybody. He quizzes out all the time! Embarrassing.
