Calm Before the Stork

(n.) The time during a woman's first pregnancy during which nobody talks about the baby or being pregnant for maybe 2 seconds. This calm, almost eerie silence, usually occurring early in the 3rd trimester, is soon shattered by childbirth and the spirit-crushing, torrential shit storm that follows after.

See Also: That part in "Deep Blue Sea" when people start getting eaten, but Samuel L. Jackson and the rest of the survivors find a minute to collect themselves and make an escape plan, and Samuel L. Jackson is giving a speech about how they have to unite to escape the genetically-mutated, super-intelligent sharks, but then, suddenly, one of the aforementioned genetically-mutated, super-intelligent sharks jumps out of the water and bites him in half.

Though it seemed for the time being that everybody had stopped speculating about his unborn child's future athletic prowess, physical attributes, and the huge amount of responsibility it takes to raise a child, the man was not fooled.

He knew that it was just the calm before the stork.

sisters before misters

The girl rule that your friends are always more important than your boyfriends. Basically the girl version of bros before hoes, except the title doesn't sound like an insult to women. Also, there's an unwritten sub-rule: if you catch your friend's boyfriend cheating, YOU MUST TELL HER ASAP!

Sometimes called chicks before dicks.

Amy's boyfriend was being such a jerk to her BFF, so she dumped him, even though she still really liked him. What an awesome friend Amy is, putting sisters before misters like that!

all before lunch

A qualifying phrase intended to illustrate that someone has done a great deal in a short time... i.e: between the hours of 9 and 12, the shorter "half" of the workday.

Used sarcastically, sort of a "that's it?" illustrator.

I've researched the Abraham case on WestLaw and Lexis, ordered new office software for the front desk, sat three new client consultations, run to the courthouse and filed our motions, and had my oil changed on the way back, all before lunch.

Sarcastically: Hey, I called the office supplies place and ordered the pens you asked for. "Wow... All that before lunch?"

One of the fanciest towns in NH. High taxes. Whole Foods. You name it, pretty much the closest we get to thto OC in NH.

“My friend from Bedford NH has a huge house with a pool and a huge yard.”
