Shy/Asshole Confusion

Coined by Larry David in the "The Acupuncturist" episode of HBO's "Curb Your Enthusiasm", Shy/Asshole Confusion is when one mistakes a shy person's quiet demeanor for that of an asshole.
Larry: I don't know why you call him an asshole. He's not an asshole, he's just shy.

Cheryl: No, he's not shy. He thinks he's smarter than everbody else and he sits there and he judges and he-

Larry: No, he doesn't, he's just shy! You've got shy/asshole confusion, my friend.

contrabassoon

Harbinger of doom and destruction. This instrument has the lowest range of any woodwind, along with the contrabass clarinet, and has a sound powerful enough to turn straight men gay, gay men straight, republicans into democrats and atheists into priests. Do not EVER take your girlfriend to an orchestra performance where there is a contrabassoonist, because he will steal your bitch before the end of the symphony's first movement.

Congressional Calculator

The Congressional Calculator is much like Obamanomics, it's calculations that don't add up in the real world yet people buy into strictly based on the source of the info. The Congressional Calculator is used anytime things don't quite add up but fits the agenda du jour. It's like adding 2+2 and getting minus 4 billion.
"Great news! Government Healthcare just passed which should decrease the deficit by about 2 Trillion!!" "ah, I love the Congressional Calculator, I'm gonna go buy a new 'vette."
