Ears of the Hippo

African version of "Tip of the iceberg". As in the Western saying, what you can see is minute compared to what lies below the surface.

"I suspect that what we've seen in this investigation is merely the ears of the Hippo".

ear wiggling

To lie; to fib; to bend the truth

Tim was doing some serious ear wiggling when he said Tina's dress looked "Bitchin' as fuck!"

Fast Ear

Fast ear is the feeling you get when you listen to a song you've heard before and think that it is faster than usual but it actually is the original speed. When this happens you should immediately turn the song off and come back later and listen to avoid any permanent damage.

Georgy- I have to get the song from a different site, that track is sped up.

Jessica- No it's not, its the same speed. You just got fast ear.

dick with ears

A male that is a self-absorbed, clueless piece of shit. Hated by both men and women. usually bald and who looks like the tip of a penis. usually such a person is incredibly selfish and self-centered and has no ability to look at himself and instead constantly blames others when he see's something that he doesn't agree with or like. said person likes to play the victim and usually acts like a child by being a Tattletail because he cant fight his own fights knowing he is unable to because he lacks the self confidence as well as the knowledge to do so. these people (usually males) are constantly seeking attention and validation and have no problem making themselves out to be the dick even if they dont recognize it, the people around them do notice and hence he ends up pushing people away because again he is unable to look at himself and realize that maybe he is the problem. the bald head is usually a symbol for his lack of masculinity in being a real man. thus he ends up looking like being a dick with ears.

"He is so rude to everyone and wont listen to anyone but himself, he's such a dick with ears. and that haircut isnt helping him much either."

producer ear

When you're writing a song or a beat, and in the process of repetition, you lose the original idea for the sound that you had, and it all starts to blur together, and you start nit picking the fuck out of every little thing, and your ears start to hurt, and you start to feel a little crazy. It's time to back away from the song for a little while to gain fresh perspective.

Me: I've played this section of the song on repeat like 100 times trying to get it juuuuust right man! I'm starting to get producer ear!
Kent: Ok, time to take a break and come back to it later with a fresh ear!
