If you survive some situation where you would have otherwise did were it not for some miracle of God then your entire life after that point is said to be borrowed time.
A man walks across a street without looking both ways when he accidently steps on a bottle, that happened to be rolling by, and falls straight down. Exactly half a speeding truck passes in front of him, only missing by inches. This man is living on borrowed time because if it hadn't been for the bottle rolling by at that exact moment he would have been smashed like a caterpillar eating your grandmas favorite rose bush.

Get the borrowed time mug.Toilet paper. The term "bog" is a British slang for the bathroom, the john, the head, the toilet. And of course, the only "roll" you are likely to find in the "bog" is made of tissue paper. Hence, "bogroll".
"Do the animals here in the zoo have a bathroom?"
"No they just use the ground."
"Well, does they even have a bogroll? You know like toilet paper?"
"No they don't need it."
"How do they clean their butties then?"

Get the Da boro mug.Taken from the movie "Gattaca". The term is associated with a detested segment of society; one of those who refuses to play the hand that he was dealt. Most commonly known as a borrowed ladder, or a de-gene-erate.
We have a borrowed ladder who has infiltrated Gattaca and has been mascarading as one of it employees.

Get the Borough mug.Boromir, older brother to Faramir, and the eldest son of Denethor.
He was a member of the fellowship, until Lurtz killed him. Because he tried to take the one ring, many people believe him to be one of the 'bad' characters, and he is often portrayed as the chauvanist or sarcastic jerk in fanfiction.
The truth is that he was used by Tolkien to show that anyone, even those with the best of intentions, or the strongest of wills, could be seduced by the ring's power.
And no matter what anyone says, even if they say what he did was dishonorable, he redeemed himself in the end by sacrificing himself to try and save Merry and Pippin.

I am tired of Legolas/Aragorn/Frodo fangirls writing romantic fiction about how Boromir was dishonorable; they obviously haven't read the books or can't analyze characters very well.
