afternoon delight

One of the goofiest songs ever written. It was a one hit wonder from the band Starland Vocal Band.
It was also in the movie "Anchorman" where Will Ferrel sings it to describe love.

"Gonna find my baby, gonna hold her tight. Gonna get a little afternoon delight. Sky rockets in Flight. BEEEOOY. Afternoon delight. WOOOP"

"Hey Ron what does love feel like?"
"(sings song)"

German Afternoon

A spontaneous afternoon spent in a bar drinking that occurs instead of the errands/chores that were originally planned

Larry ran into a buddy while at the hardware store buying lawn fertilizer that he wanted to spread after lunch. They popped into the pub for a quick beer and ended up having a German Afternoon. He had to finish the lawn the next day.

afternoon tea

Australian term for a mid-to-late snack in the afternoon. Typically eaten when one comes home from school, or during a work meal break. Does not actually mean the drink tea is consumed - generally sweet, lighter foods such as cakes, scrolls, or biscuits.

I can't wait to have afternoon tea, I'm starving.

Dog Day Afternoon

As the Accidental Reincarnate says, "In literally having had many of a 'Dog Day Afternoon' spent particularly engaged in the activity now suggested. I have now found that while so indulging myself and enjoying a cold beverage on this life's many days of same, it much better having two hands with an opposable thumb than two paws and a long tongue!"

Have you ever spent a dog day afternoon wondering what Fido would do if he could make a fist?
