1,000 yard stare

After a veteran from war comes home they often find themselves staring blankly into the horizon. The reason for this is that they spend so much time staring off into the distance looking for a target that they only have one consistent passive state of mind. And that is to stare.

These people can often be awakened from this dumbfounded state of mind by making a loud popping noise which will transfer them into a shell shock reflexive behavior causing them to dart around underneath furniture.

John: What's wrong with Jamal?

Jason: He's doing the 1,000 yard stare.. watch this...

*Jason pops a balloon*

*Jamal bashes his face on a table trying to dive under it*

yard sale

Similar to a flea market but limited to surburban residential districts. Useless or unwanted items given away at ridiculously low prices, only to be desired and wanted back once they've been sold off

"I bought some great old TV Guides at the Smiths' yard sale Saturday."

yard sale

Old, dirty, and/or broken, discarded items ranging from bathroom shower curtain rings, to under-stuffed chairs with oily stains and animal hair, for sale. Items are displayed on blankets and folding tables inside of a garage, or on the driveway, and across the lawn. Common identifiers of a "yard sale" are lines of cars (old and new) parked with two wheels sinking into a neighbors' grass and women, usually in pairs, with big butts and wiggly arms, grabbing everything marked 50 cents. Cardboard signs directing drivers to the sale are seen for years after.

1. I answered the door and there was Judy from down the street. "Our street is having a multi-family yard sale, would you like to chip in for a newspaper ad?" said, Judy.
2. I bought my mattress at a yard sale and sprayed it with disinfectant.

yard sale

An alibi often used to explain the origin of petty contraband. Often works because it is nearly impossible to disprove, plausible, and usually absolves the owner of guilt.

Officer: Son, mind explaining where you got those milk crates with 'Property of Milk Company' written on them?
Dude: Yard sale.
Officer: Dammit.
