hold up

When something is so utterly messed up you HAVE to question what they asked.

A : Hey, I just married C.
B : Nice, you two lookalike!

Hold-up

Office lingo.
Someone stops by your office cube and leans on the wall to chat with you over the wall. The wall is held up, and you are held up as they steal your time.

I'm sorry I'm late for lunch, my frikin lonely heart coworker thought it was a good time for a hold-up.
