40 Days

A day celebrated in South Africa marking the last 40 days of the matric’s High school career. The festivities lasts from 05:00-14:00 and include chaos, mayhem and laughter. This day should be totally unproductive and a day in which matrics get the chance to build their best - and some of their last - good school memories before entering the sad world of taxes and actual hard work.

40 Acres and a mule

Used as a response to a promise that will obviously not be kept. After the Civil War, the U.S. government promised freed slaves “40 acres and a mule” as part of land redistribution plans under General William T. Sherman’s Special Field Order No. 15.

60/40 split

The 60/40 split is a form of relationship dynamic, statistically one of the most, if not THE most stable relationship dynamic. It is where the man is the primary earner and pays 60% of the bills, and the woman is the secondary earner who pays 40% of the bills. In terms of chores and childcare, they are split evenly among the couple. This is not to be confused with the 40/60 split where the man pays 40% and the woman pays 60%.

Statistically, a relationship with a male primary earner, female secondary earner, and equal sharing of household responsibilities, is the most stable - with low rates of adultery, low rates of divorce, and high rates of reported marital satisfaction. This is because it strikes a balance with the best of both worlds between traditional and egalitarian relationships, meeting it in the middle.

Kids may or may not be put in daycare, depending on the couple's preferences. Sometimes the government may choose paid transferable parental leave, which is also a good option.

Red Dye 40

Be it the fairest of alabaster red-heads to the bronzed and ravishing red-bones, they all have that Red Dye 40 in them. It's what makes them oh so irresistible, but oh so toxic if you aren't careful.
"Oh man. What happened? Who punched you?"

"Peaches found out I cheated."

"Awe, you know she's got that Red Dye 40 in her!"
