white screen of death

A type of test pattern that appeared on a lot of VHS tapes before the mid-1990s. It consists of a white screen accompanied by an endless tone. If VHS tapes did not have this, they would either have static, a black screen with red numbers and a phone dialing noise, or a multicolored pattern.

Man, that white screen of death that came out of nowhere at the end of my VHS tape scared da hell outta me so much I wanted to run outta da room.

Great White North

A skit on SCTV in response to a need of a canadian segment.
It portrays two brothers, Bob and Doug Macenzie, as super-steryotypical canadians. The skit usually entails sitting arround, eating back baccon, drinking beer, saying "eh", and passing the occasional insult ("Shove off you hoser"). The skit always begens with the call of the wild.

I watched Great White North the movie and immediatly tried the mouse in bottle trick.

don't eat the big white mint

A phrase used to ridicule someone's stupidity, "big white mint" refers to a urinal cake. Thus "don't eat the big white mint" implies that someone is stupid enough to mistake the urinal cake for a mint and eat it.

I was on a date with this really dumbass guy, and he said he had to go to the bathroom. I said, OK, don't eat the big white mint.

white dog shit

a product of the 1970's,white dog shit was everywhere! it was all over the place because once upon a time high quantities of chalk were addded to tins of dog food therefore when a dog would take a shit after a few days in the sunshine the poo would dry out and eventually turn white. nowadays pet food manufacturers don't use chalk in their food and this is why we don't see any more white dog shit lying around.

bring back white dog shit it's so nostalgic.
