The Ten Duel Commandments 

Number one: The challenge, demand satisfaction. If they apologize, no need for further action.

Number two:
If they don't, grab a friend, that's your second. Your Lieutenant, when there's reckoning to be reckoned.

Number three:
Have your seconds meet face to face, Negotiate a peace or negotiate a time and place. This is commonplace, specially 'tween recruits.Most disputes die and no one shoots.

Number four:
If they don't reach a peace, that's alright
Time to get some pistols and a doctor on site. You pay him in advance, you treat him with civility. You have him turn around, so he can have deniability
Five:
Duel before the sun is in the sky,
Pick a place to die where it's high and dry.

Number six:
Leave a note for your next of kin. Tell 'em where you been, pray that Hell or Heaven lets you in.

Seven:
Confess your sins ready for the moment of adrenaline when you finally face your opponent.

Number eight:
Your last chance to negotiate
Send in your seconds see if they can set the record straight.

Number nine:
Look him in the eye, aim no higher.
Summon all the courage you require.
Then count, One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine number (Ten paces!) Fire!

Fight me

Fine
Ok

Breadhead

schmegegge 

Yiddish slang word meaning bullshit, baloney, hogwash, nonsense, crock of shit or hot air.

I don't buy the schmegegge about Morty sleeping with Moira.
His version of the story was pure schmegegge.
The whole schmegegge was made up to get Liz a little bit of attention.

Stroad

Noun. Portmanteau of "street" and "road": it describes a street, er, road, built for high speed, but with multiple access points. Excessive width is a common feature. A common feature in suburbia, especially along commercial strips. Unsafe at any speed, their extreme width and straightness paradoxically induces speeding. Somewhat more neutral than synonymous traffic sewer.

Did you see what the traffic engineers want to do to our street? They're going to turn it into a total stroad!
