courtesy wash

Washing your hands in a public bathroom, only because someone else is in there too.

Even though I was in a hurry, I had to do a courtesy wash so that Johnson didn't think I was completely disgusting.

Ondine's curse

A respiratory disorder, also called congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS) or primary alveolar hypoventilation, which is fatal if untreated. Because of a congenital failure of the body's involuntary control of breathing, people with the disorder must take each breath consciously; they typically die during sleep.

In German mythology, Ondine was a water nymph who fell in love with and married a mortal man, Sir Lawrence. He swore to her that his every waking breath shall be his pledge of love and faithfulness to her. Years later, she caught him in the arms of another woman. She cursed him thusly: "You swore faithfulness to me with every waking breath, and I accepted your oath. So be it. As long as you are awake, you shall have your breath, but should you ever fall asleep, then that breath will be taken from you and you will die!"

Sir Lawrence stayed awake as long as he could but eventually fell asleep from sheer exhaustion, and he stopped breathing and died.

Ondine's curse gives new meaning to the phrase, "I'll sleep when I'm dead."

courtesy music

Courtesy music is music you play while you are having sex or masturbating, so your roommates don't have to hear the sounds.

The smooth man that he is, McLovin put an R&B CD on as courtesy music before he had sex with Tasha.

Courtesy Follow

Following someone via tumblr, twitter or any other such medium but only because they followed you first. You most likely have no actual interest in what this person is posting but don't have the guts to let them know that.

Person A: Some random guy just followed me.
Person B: Just go with a courtesy follow.

Courtesy Accept

On Facebook, when you receive a request from someone who you see has several mutual friends, but you know that you have never met them and don't really want to accept their friend request, but you do anyway to avoid looking like an asshole/bitch, this is considered a courtesy accept.

I had to courtesy accept her friend request so I wouldn't look like a dick. She's friends with Tina, so I don't want her to tell Tina I'm a dick, I can't be havin that shizz yo.

Coursively

Pronounced (cor'siv'ley)

A combination of "of course" and "obviously". To emphasis the obviousness of it... and emphasis how dumb the question or consideration is.......

Girl 1: I am going to marry Prince Harry soon and be the next princess.

Girl 2: Coursively you can't, you're not as "common" as Kate Middleton.
