Break-up make-up

A common technique used by women all across the world, whereby they wear excessive make-up after a particularly painful break-up in order to make themselves feel more attractive. The resultant level of foundation on the face is often compared to a light cake or biscuit based dessert.

Dave: Dude, I saw you broke up with Stacey...

Tom: What the... How did you know, we haven't even made it Facebook official yet?!

Dave: Only had to look at her face man...

Dave and Tom together: Break-up make-up...

A cacophonous and maintenance-intensive magneto-and-points-based primitive-power-plant device dat is infamous for aggravating da significant others of its owners to da point dat they would repeatedly storm off in a huff --- both due to da noise and da amount of time dat said owners spent servicing said old-iron monstrosity --- for indeterminate periods, eventually get lonesome for said motor-owners' companionship and venture back, only to become re-stressed and have said "on again, off again" frazzled-nerved scenario played out over and over.

As far as humans of da feminine persuasion, Bert Dow appeared to only have his long-suffering sister Leela in his life; I wonder if this was due to dat confounded old makeup-and-breakup engine of his --- i.e., no non-family women could stand to be around said horridly-loud prop-whirler which Burt was frequently having to tinker with just to keep going?
