The simple act of slipping into bed and rubbing your legs together to enjoy the comfy, coziness.
"How'd you sleep last night?"

Get the Cricketing mug.
A thing that makes noise when your jokes aren't funny. Somehow, every single time you tell a bad joke, the damn cricket just happens to be there to mock you. He makes you cry.
Bad comedian: So the monkey says to me "how are you?" haha

*Silence*

Cricket: *cricket* you suck *cricket*

Bad comedian: Boo hoo. :'(

When you prove someone wrong and they have no response.

The word said to break the silence after an unfunny (lame) joke has been told, usually to place embarrassment on the person who attempted the joke. Sometimes yelled to increase embarrassment.
Person 1: "That's what your mum said last night..."
*Everyone Silent*
Person 2: "CRICKETS!"
