Holiday Fling

Being in a relationship (Really, it's just a label - it's actually the things that you two do together that count, i.e. kissing, hugging etc. etc.), and going off on a holiday (say, back home) of a certain predetermined short amount of time, oh say, 4 weeks. Then gradually losing feelings for your partner, and start seeing some another person. On HOLIDAY. And actually getting into a relationship with him/her during the last week of your holiday and actually start dragging it into a long distance relationship, while your partner still loves you like nothing he/she's ever loved before. When confronted, you say things like 'Oh I've given up so much thought about it' and 'I think this will work' and 'But at least I told you the truth throughout the whole time' and 'But I've fallen for him everytime I've gone back'
Nicole - "Yeah. I'm on a holiday fling with someone back home who I've fallen for everytime I've gone back and I decided to break off whatever that we've had and get into a long distance relationship with him on the last week of my holiday because I think this is going to work, and I've given it heaps of thought and I'm doing things that make me happy, like you told me to. Besides, I think we moved too fast. I know it's my fault and I wish I was never part of your life. I'm sorry."

Me - "WTF COULDN'T YOU HAVE WAITED ONE MORE FRICKING WEEK BEFORE YOU COME BACK THEN AT LEAST WE CAN FRICKING REBUILD OUR FEELINGS, RATHER THAN FUCKING AROUND WITH SOME GUY ON A HOLIDAY BACK HOME WHO'S A DOUCHEBAG WHO'S SOOOOOOOOOO ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT FUCKING AROUND WITH YOU EVERYTIME YOU GO BACK?"

Nicole - "Oh but he's such a nice guy and he brings me places and takes me home and stuff and I love hanging out and drinking and having sleepovers with all guys when I go back home"

Me - "Errr WTF WTF WTF WTF WTF WTF"

HOW COULD YOU DO THIS CRAZY FUCKING SHIT TO ME NICOLE? THIS IS NOT THINKING ABOUT YOURSELF. THIS IS NOT 'DOING THINGS THAT MAKE YOU HAPPY' - THIS. IS. CALLED. FUCKING. AROUND. It's only with extremely powerful and reluctant self-control that I don't call you a dirty and cheap 2-bit WHORE. Because that's what people who know the story think you are. And if you REALLY weren't 'over your ex' and 'still fcked in the head' then you would've distanced yourself from relationships. NOT GET INTO ONE ON FUCKING HOLIDAYS WHILE YOU WERE IN ONE WITH ME(We didn't label it but we did everything a couple would do). THANKS FOR FUCKING AROUND ON A 4 WEEK HOLIDAY AND NOT EVEN BEING ABLE TO HOLD ON TO YOUR FEELINGS FOR FOUR. FRICKING. WEEKS. ENJOY FUCKING HIM EVERYTIME YOU GO BACK HOME FOR A HOLIDAY.

Hate Sink 

A person you hate intensely not because they deserve such hatred but because they serve as a focus for your general hatred. A healthy way to dispense with excess animosity.
Jake's not really that big an asshole. He just serves as my hate sink.

A toe rag was originally a foot wrapping used, since mediaeval times up until the mid-nineteenth century, to protect the foot from chafing by boots or shoes. As these were, quite literally, rags they weren’t usually washed, and so with use they became very smelly until they were thrown away. Because of the similarity in smell, toe rag also became the name applied to dried, salted cod or other things with a strong, unpleasant, fishy smell. It didn’t take that long before the name was applied to someone who was an obnoxious, unpleasant OIC.
1 “Socks! Those aren’t socks you smelly git, they’re toe rags!”
2 “What have you been cooking? Smells like toe rag!”
3 “I can smell ‘er fanny from ‘ere, proper toe rag.”
4 That Heale Malcolm is a right toe rag.

Eternity leave 

When some resigns or retires from a job, they are on "eternity leave". This can also refer to someone who has passed away, especially someone who worked somewhere for a long time, retired/resigned, then passed away later.
Oh I'm sorry, you didn't know that Kelly is on eternity leave? She resigned and moved to Hawaii!

With regrets I would like to inform you that my boss is officially on eternity leave. I will never see or hear them again. Ever.

girl grip 

The ability girls and women have developed to hold several items at once in one hand. The skill has been developed due to the lack of pockets in women's clothing.
I thought she'd need multiple trips to carry her phone, keys, wallet, and Starbucks to her car since she needed the other hand to open the door, but she used her impressive girl grip to carry everything in one hand.
