moonlighting curse

When the will-they-won't-they couple on a TV show finally gets together... and it ruins the show. (Derived from the 1980's TV show Moonlighting, whose ratings declined to the point of cancellation after the main characters finally resolved their sexual tension)

"I really wish they'd just get together already!"

"As much as I want that to happen, I'd hate for the show to be ruined by the Moonlighting Curse."

"I guess you're right. The show won't be as much fun once the sexual tension is gone."

Holding another job at night, often one of a sketchy nature.

Maybe if Jane didn't wear such slutty clothing, people wouldn't believe that she was moonlighting as a stripper.

Moonlighting

A “will they/won’t they” relationship that leans towards “will they”. Somewhere between dating and not dating with mad tension and chemistry

I don’t know what’s going on between them... they’re just moonlighting

poonlighting

A secondary night job that entails making whoopy with a fine piece of ass, or a slampig.

Poonlighting was often Ryan's forte until he got the Herp from a nasty slampig.
