Promuse 

promuse
/ˈprɒmju z/
/pro-myuze/
noun

1. a false declaration of assurance that something will surely happen or someone, usually themselves, will surely do something.

verb

1. to falsely assure that something will definitely occur, or will definitely be done by someone, usually themselves.

Promuse is intentionally misspelled to make it look as if you're trying to say promise, but since the definition has been set to a lie, you're no longer lying and you can now assure your friends that you "promuse", while you don't really promise something and you don't lie either.

Person 1: "I don't believe you! Promise me."
Chad: "Okay, I promuse."
Person 1: "Alright, I believe you."

Lick and a Promise 

This is originally London slang and quite an old expression; its first recorded use is in 1838 in an English newspaper (The Era) where it was used to describe a uninterested or half-assed attempt at any sort of task or job. Gradually its use changed until, by the time The Era closed in 1939, it was used and still is used to describe a perfunctory wash, less thorough that even HF-AGBA, a BBA or an airplane bath.

Malcolm’s really stinking this morning, I don’t think he even bothered with a lick and a promise.

Promise Ring

A promise ring is a sign of commitment between two people. Often, it is the first token of a serious relationship that is just developing, but exchanging promise rings can equally be a symbol of a joint commitment which is not related to love. A promise ring can mean many things: I promise to always love you.

''I want to marry you in the future, and I want to show you how serious I am about you. I give you this promise ring as a symbol of that''.

Pillow-Talk Promises 

When you are lying in bed with a guy/girl after sex, and make all kinds of plans to go out, and be together in the future. Knowing it's never really gonna happen, it just sounds like a nice thing to say at the time.

This also sounds like a great name for an Emo Band!

I thought we were gonna hang out this weekend, but it turns out it was just pillow-talk promises.
