maintaining a good self image. People who are involved in a conflict and secretly know they are wrong will often not admit that they are wrong because they don’t want to admit they made a mistake.

Saving Private Ryan Rule

Share definition
When someone has hooked up with every single sibling of the same gender but one, he/she is not allowed to hook up with the remaining sibling.
Hey, did Ross sleep with Sally when he was back in Iowa?

No, she wanted to but he couldn't do it - the Saving Private Ryan Rule, you know? He's already hooked up with Jane and Samantha.

Oh, right.

The exact opposite of a "shopping spree" whereby an individual is determined to live according to a carefully planned out budget that would minimize spending to increase on savings.
I'm on a temporary "saving spree"... no shopping, no outting, until I've saved up enough money for that euro trip!

A phrase used to compare something, even when they aren't movie related.

Coined after Grantland writer Bill Simmons used it when reviewing the movie The Lone Survivor. Readers then made fun of him by using it in their email questions.
