Tony's Trippler 

A delicious delicacy that haunts the souls of nonbelievers of the "takseys backseys" rule. Some people say it still roams the streets of Memphis to these days, searching for his lost, neglecting owner...Issac...Issac.
I couldn't sleep last night because the Tony's Trippler was haunting my dreams.

Jack Tripper Syndrome 

A situation in which two or more parties believe to have a mutual understanding of the subject matter, but unknowingly are addressing two independent thoughts or conclusions.
Direct from Three's Company:

Mr. Furley is suffering from Jack Tripper Syndrome and is standing outside the bathroom and eavesdropping while Jack and Chrissy are installing a shower curtain.

Jack Tripper: Okay, Chrissy, I'll get in the tub with you, then we can get it on.
Chrissy: Get next to me, I'll show you what to do.
Jack Tripper: This isn't exactly the first time I've ever done this.
Chrissy: Maybe so, but girls are better at this than boys.
Jack Tripper: Come on, Chrissy. A little less talk and a little more action, okay?
Chrissy: Okay, you do your part and I'll do mine. I don't think it'll reach!
Jack Tripper: Of course not, you've got to unfold it first!

Jack Tripper 

Pulling a "Jack Tripper" describes a situation/conversation whereas 2 or more parties are talking - or overhearing - different subjects, but don't realize it. The misunderstanding is usually rife with sexual innuendo. This type of comedy exchange was used extensively in the 80's sitcom "Three's Company", hence the name.
