A nickname for Iver Johnson revolvers, particularly small top-break revolvers chambered in .32 or .38, due to the owl head logo on the grip. The revolvers were once extremely popular for carry from the 1880s till the 1950s. This term was very common up into the 1960s used usually by older men, the phrase is seldom heard now. Sometimes used as a name for any Iver Johnson firearm but usually the revolvers as previously described.
Old Fella in the country store telling about his younger days; "That cat was comin' at me with with a pig sticker wantin' my money, so I whipped out my Owl Head and put it to em and leveled him out."
Young Man circa 1900; "I just order a brand new Owl Head revolver out the Sears and Roebuck mail order catalog."
Kid, now; "My great grandpa bought this revolver when he was young and passed it on to me, he was always called it an Owl Head...whatever that is."

Get the Head safetymug. The act of scratching a friends head, usually when they are depressed, drunk, or high. There is a rumored second G Spot on one's head which can be stimulated through the act of head scratchies, and therefore should be something not done in public.
Nikki: I've been feeling pretty down since I found out I was pregnant, can you give me head scratchies?
Erin: Sure thing, you better pay me back though!

1. What do you call someone wearing a head sock, a scarf and a helmet?
Anything you want, they can't hear a thing.
2. I went to the bank with my wife when an armed robber walked in, pulled on a head sock and pulled out a gun.
He went up to a customer and asked "did you see my face?" The customer said "yes", so the robber shot him.
He asked another customer "did you see my face?" The customer said "yes" so the robber shot him.
He asked me "did you see my face?"
"No, but the wife did"
