wound tighter than an eight day clock

When a person or pet exhibits nervous energy, they are said to be “tightly wound”.
Before electricity, mechanical clocks were wound by turning a key or crank to tighten a mainspring. As the spring would lose tension, the hands would turn for about 8 days before needing to be rewound.

Damn! Did you see how much cocaine Liz snorted? She is going to be wound tighter than an eight day clock this week!

Get the wound tighter than an eight day clock mug.

ITBS: Itchy Tight Bum Syndrome

TBS: Tight Bum Syndrome: the action at which some one, who is nervous, clenches their butt cheeks in anticipation of a specific anxiety/nerve inducing event. -Walking is sometimes difficult, although it does make your ass look out of this world.

ITBS: Itchy Tight Bum Syndrome: The occasional time during TBS: Tight Bum Syndrome, when your ass gets extremely. annoyingly itchy. Usually an itch that just doesn't feel right scratching on your own, so you must employ a friend to do it immediately. Or some kind of utensil.

Todd:"Hey Bob, have you ever had a case of ITBS?"

Bob: "I don't think I have Todd, only TBS, what is ITBS?"

Todd: ITBS: Itchy Tight Bum Syndrome, when your ass cheeks are in the position of TBS, but then get extremely itchy all of a sudden. I just can't seem to scratch it properly."

Bob:"Do you need a butt scratcher?"
