When you can't find winter work and running out of money. You need new gloves but can't afford to buy any. Typically used in areas with really harsh winters. Can also be said in regards to another person. As in " you got snow up your sleeves".
Do you know anyone hiring? I'm starting to getsnow up my sleeves.
Compression sleeves worn by elite, professional athletes and ultra incredible people in general who need that extra athletic edge. If you are trying to look and feel uh-mazing no matter what physically demanding activity you are doing, but just aren't sure what to wear, then get a pair. They give you muscle definition even if you didn't know you had any! Don't be surprised if you see these cropping up everywhere and on everyone...from hipsters to debutantes. Popeye has his spinach, Superman has his cape, and you have your Man Sleeves.
When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
Short-hand for the word floccinaucinihilipilification, meaning the estimation of something as valueless (encountered mainly as an example of one of the longest words in the English language).
