books that are really short because they don't have much, if any material.

Italian War Heroes
German Humor
Polish Culture
Mexican Sanitation
Canadian Confidence
English Cuisine
Belgian Relevance
Blacks I have met while yachting
Ponzi Schemes Not by Jews

on the same page, but in different books! 

when you know that everything is good with someone/something, but there is still this thing!
said when you are in a situation where you know that something is missing or wrong, but cant quite point out what it is.
John: she said that she knew she loves me, but that there was something missing.
Chris: dude, apparently you guys are "on the same page, but in different books!"

church hurt 

church hurt is where you experience a degree of distance, pain, or judgement from your church community. Essentially, you are just unable to “find your place”. This is prevalent in the Christian community, but can be extended to other religions.
Now that I am an adult I am beginning to heal from the church hurt that was inflicted on me as a child.

Huge. Surpassing normal expectations.
I was fishing with a Spinner Bait and a HONKIN pike came after it and hit it . Felt like a lawnmower running over a brick.

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
