Hall Pass 

This version of "Hall Pass" does not refer to being a student and school days gone-by. In this version it refers to the permission given to go out with the guys (instead of fulfilling either girlfriend or wife duties / obligations / quality time / etc). The Hall Pass can come in half-day, full-day or even hourly increments. It is something to be prized, cherished and used judiciously for it is not an easy thing to obtain. It can only be obtained by verbal (or written) consent from said girlfriend or wife.
Mike E. Me told the guys he had gotten a hall pass for the opening Friday in March for the NCAA tourney. He was quite happy cause he had been planning this for sometime and his wife finally approved and granted him the pass (a full day one to boot!)

Craig called up the gang and sadly informed them that he would not be joining them at the race-track this coming Saturday. He couldn't get the hall pass, not even for a few hours.

hall pass 

Noun: An imaginary pass or permission slip, granted by one's spouse, BF, or GF to go out socially with friends.

This colloquial phrase did NOT imply any romantic or sexual encounters. It pre-dated the 2010 comedy film ("Hall Pass") by several decades. This definition relates to adults. This phrase is commonly used by people who attended US schools in the 1960's - 80's.

SYN: see "Permission Slip" and "Kitchen Pass"
Ex: Jeff told Dave that he had two tickets for the middleweight boxing match on this coming Saturday. He asked Dave if he wanted to come to the match. Dave replied, "Let me get back to you on that, I'm not sure if Susan will give me a Hall Pass to go out this Saturday night."

A slang term for GLP-1 medications(like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, etc.), usually referring to their appetite-killing, weight-loss, or “I forgot to eat” effects rather than the medical details.

Usage:
* Often casual, ironic, or meme-y
* Can imply effortless weight loss, suppressed hunger, or being “powered by pharmaceuticals”

Not a brand name—just shorthand for the whole GLP-1 wave. Frequently shows up in online jokes, gym talk, and group chats where people pretend they’re *totally* doing it naturally.
