floatboat

A luxury sedan that prioritizes comfort over handling and performance. Used in a derogatory way by fans of sports sedans, which are the opposite.

Float: The objective of this type of cars is to isolate the driver from the road, which makes them feel like they "float" above it.
Boat: Because handling is not the priority, they can be hard to maneuver, a characteristic they share with actual boats.

These cars are typically preferred by older people because they offer a relaxing ride, whereas younger people prefer sport sedans for being more fun to drive.

Dad, your old Caddy is such a floatboat. When I drive it, it's hard not to fall asleep. My new Mercedes is so much better

FloatGate

An orchestrated political event created when a prominent political leader is removed from a float in a parade conspicuously so as to cause embarrassment for a candidate for office.

When the policeman called for a warrant to be served on a local democratic official during a parade when that official was on a float, his public handcuffing attracted enough media attention that it became known as FloatGate.

floatation devices

One of many countless slang terms for a woman's breasts, particularly large perky breasts.

*At the annual college swimming championship competition*

Chuck: Damn Sean, did you see that Erica outswim the other contestants for the umpteenth time? She just won the whole tourney and is the undefeated champion of the whole district! I wonder how the hell she does it.
Sean: Lotsa practice obviously. Like the other swimmers. But one could assume that it's in part due to those damn fine floatation devices she got on her! *points and ogles at Erica as she holds up her trophy to the audience*
Chuck: Amen, brother! I sure wanna make that one my little bed mermaid! Giggidy giggidy!
