seismic shift

A major change. (Seismology is the study of earthquakes.) The implication is that the change being described is so significant that the earth will move under your feet. Like paradigm shift, this phrase has become overused marketing hype.

In just the last century, there has been a seismic shift in the treatment of women in this country.

desk siesta

A term refering to an after-lunch nap in which a worker props their feet up on their desk and leans back in their chair. The desk siesta is most often taken by workers with an office door.

Joanne always gets sleepy after lunch, so she likes to take a desk siesta each day to perk herself up.

Ego-seismic

Thinking about the cause of an earthquake relating to yourself.

Maybe us moving, redirected the epicentre of U.S earthquakes to where we were from. I like to think of it as Ego-Seismic thinking

Seis de Mayo

The day after Cinco de Mayo; usually characterized by deadly farts, a killer hangover, and dormir mucho.

I love Cinco de Mayo- Taco Bell, Corona and lime, sombreros, and jammin' to mariachi songs!
I HATE Seis de Mayo- farts that smell like chalupas and a hangover the size of Mexico. It sucks big cojones.
