irritable vowel syndrome

Refers to a semi-serious malady whereby an impatient/cantankerous person habitually "whimpers 'n' growls" using long drawn-out wordless/meaningless noises that, if written out phonetically, would consume a whole lotta letters other than consonants, such as "Aaaaaaaaaarrgghhhuuuuuuuuuhhhhh...!" or, "Eeeeeeeeeennnggguuuuuuuuuhhh...!"

I never take my spoiled-rotten teenage cousin along on family shopping-trips anymore... the lengthy wait-times between stores, our unwillingness to purchase the unnecessary/overly-expensive items he desires, our inability to go around to all the places he wants to visit, and the late hour that we usually get home all conspire to give him a major case of irritable vowel syndrome, and this constant fretting takes all the cheerfulness out of the trip for everyone else.

vowelize

to edit an audio clip so that all of
the sounds of the consonants are
removed, leaving only the vowel sounds.
this creates a sort-of "concentrated
melody".

Empty your Vowels

To emotionally vent by screaming, usually as an onomatopoeia containing no words, only sound.

The pain of loss was too much, so he went outside in the rain, stared at the sky, raised his fists, and emptied his vowels. (Empty your Vowels)

Smoking vowels

1. To describe someone who is doing tricks with the smoke from any nicotine device, usually a hookah
2. To describe someone who is getting really high from any nicotine device

Derived from a scene from the original Alice in Wonderland where the blue caterpillar is seen creating vowels from the smoke from his hookah

Dude that smoke ring was sick! You for real smoking vowels over there.

making her exclaim all the vowels

This happens when a woman is having sheer ecstasy and verbally expresses her pleasure by moaning out all of the vowels - not necessarily in successive order.

After Friday night's performance where Jim had given Shannon the kiss of bliss thereby making her exclaim all the vowels, he felt like their relationship was on solid ground. A, E, I, O, U and Y never sounded more beautiful!
