hors d'oeuvres 

A bunch of nasty little foods on platters at a social event. Often they are the only meal served during the entire event because the hosts are too cheap to provide a main course.

Pronounced: or-DERVS
Dude, they found maggots in the hors d'oeuvres at the company party, so nobody had anything to eat the entire evening.

hors d'oeuvre 

A fine older woman over the age of 30. The cougar version of a snack. Once a snack hits 30, she becomes an hors d'oeuvre, assuming she's still fine.
I'd rather hit the mall during the day to pickup some hors d'oeuvres while their husbands are at work.

Serial Monogamist 

Someone who jumps from one relationship immediately into another one.

Serial monogamists can not stand to be alone and often suffer from vast commitment and insecurity issues.

Because they jump into relationships immediately after the previous one has ended, serial monogamists typically don't take the time to reflect on their behavior or why their previous relationships failed; thus, they end up making the same relationship mistakes over and over again.
Person 1: Damn, Dustin already has a new girlfriend?! It's only been two weeks since he broke up with his fiance! I think he's a sociopath.

Person 2: No, he's a serial monogamist...
