suspension bridge 

When you have a big poop, and it lands sideways in the toilet, so it suspends the water like a bridge, spanning from one side of the bowl to the other. Upon flushing, the water will just sink beneath it, going down the pipe, and fill beneath the newly constructed "bridge". (The only way to flush a "suspension bridge" is to chop it up with a plunger).

Great Bridge 

Great Bridge is an area of Chesapeake, Virginia. Most of the kids in Great Bridge are preps, Jocks, or red necks. There are very few others, and you occasionally see scene or emo kids. This is partially because most everybody in Great Bridge is rather wealthy, and can afford shopping at Aero and Hollister for their kids. Most guys here are into BMX, football, skateboarding, and typical guy stuff. They are just like stereotypic teenage boys. (I personally have lived in this area, and was one of few scene kids)
Great Bridge Girl: "Hey I went to Hollister the other day and got some new skinny jeans!"
Great Bridge Guy: "Oh my god look at all these awesome bikes! Man I'm gonna' ask for one!"
