daniel in distress

When a man is in danger and needs saving by a woman rather than the opposite.

Person 1: Hey did you see that new James Cameron film where the guy needed to be saved by that badass chick
Person 2:Yeah I did, He's a daniel in distress rather than being the hero of the story

Damsel-in-Distressed

This is where a woman manufactures an intimate yet fake online relationship with a (usually lonely) male to con him out of money. After she sinks her claws in, she comes up with a story that her electricity and internet are about to be cut off and she won't be able to talk to him anymore. The guy believes he is a knight in shining armor coming to her rescue and wires her a few hundred dollars. Meanwhile, the grifter girl has another 6 marks on the hook who she's currently working. (The guy is distressed when he finally figures it out…)

Dude, you look like hell! What happened?

I met this really great girl over the internet. We fell in love and were planning to meet in person. But she lost her job and couldn't pay her bills. So I sent her some money to help her out but I haven't heard from her in days. I'm really worried something happened to her.

Dude! You totally got Damsel-in-Distressed!

What?

Uh, never mind.

central distressway

pun off of Central Expressway (commonly knows as just 'Caentral' or '75'), in Dallas Texas. Which is basically this huge ass expressway that almost EVERYONE in Dallas uses to get to and from somewhere so its always bumper to bumper hence the term "Central Distressway"

"dude your like 3 hours late."

"sorry man, i got caught up on central distressway"

Distressed Watcher

A internet celebrity whore who fails at reviewing trailers (basically commercials) for movies.

Also can be used to describe someone who is excessively nitpicky about the most pointless and uneventful reasons in a jarring, loud and irritating voice and rants about said insignificance for multiple times longer than the duration of said act.

Dude, stop being a Distressed Watcher, complaining about the 3 second rising sun in that movie trailer, for the last 10 minutes. It's not a big deal and you're not funny!
