conversational fore-play

When someone wants to talk to you but instead of getting to the point, they skirt around the issue by talking about other, less important things. Also when there is a big point to make, but you are nervous and can't get right into the big point without telling a meaningless story or two.
My Boss: Well, Kevin, I wanted to talk to you today. Please sit down.
Me: Is there a problem Jesse?
My Boss: Not really, but how are you doing today Kevin?
Me: I'm doing fine I guess. But what was it you wanted to talk to me about?
My Boss: Don't worry, we'll get to that. First, I want to tell you about when I started with the company ten years ag-
Me: Look Jesse, I have a lot of reports to run, so if you don't mind cutting out the conversational fore-play, and let's talk business?

Conversation Foreplay 

When you start talking to someone in the street or on msn etc, and your saying things like "how are you" and "been up to much" to get the conversation going, like doing foreplay before sex.
Friend: yeah we did the whole conversation foreplay thing and then he was suddenly like oh gotta go bye.
An Irish phrase meaning shit, derived from ass
(Not to be confused with the literal description of one's buttocks)
"Did you hear the song Aylek$ dropped?"
"Hardly. Her music is absolute cheeks."

"My boyfriend say LaFlame is cheeks."
"Tell your boyfriend I said it's his mixtape that's cheeks."

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.
