Urinal Trough

A twisted plan devised for ball parks, in which the custodian essentially saws a bathtub in two, drills it to the wall, and expects men to comfortably piss crammed side by side with no panels or anything.

Urinal troughs are generally very awkward and a good place to suddenly become self-aware.

Internet Tough Guy

Someone who writes/comments on youtube videos/forums and argues with other people or insults other people with extreme confidence (confidence that they normally dont have) due to the anonymity of the internet.

If you tell someone fuck you in real life, they might kick your ass.

If you tell someone fuck you on youtube, they can't kick your ass because they don't know who you are. So ppl like to use this absence of consequence to fullfill their need to raise their self esteem.
Dude, look at this guy talking smack like crazy on youtube, internet tough guys... such losers.

Thought Potato

Having uncontrollable thoughts about food when you're on a diet.

Unlike the real potato, this is a much more effective way of eating whilst on a diet.

text that thought

Similar to Hold That Thought, when a conversation is taking place in person and one conversant must separate from the other, however, instead of a conversation being postponed until a later time, the conversation is continued via SMS.
Conversant A: "So Joey turned to Mary and said..."
Conversant B: "Yeah yeah, text that thought, time for work!"

tough row to hoe

a hard time. Something is being very hard to deal with. Also "it hit me for a row", same meaning but an unexpected loss, difficult crisis.
Farmers used to use a hoe to plant things or to hack at a row of dirt to break it up or kill weeds. Sometimes, you feel like a row of hacking and hoeing is about to wear you down because it's a lot of work.
Growing up in Texas, I heard some old-timers (born before 1900) say this.
My son was arrested last night and was slapped with felony possession charges. He's always in trouble and I'm not sure what to do anymore. This has sure been a tough row to hoe.
