Out of the woods 

For some kids, out of the woods meant back to where the authority figures they ran to were so they could get other kids in trouble, so much fun to them, or at least they claimed it was, that they had to have popcorn for show to somebody else), so they use the expression out of the woods a lot, but for others, the woods wasn't such a bad place to be.
Not everybody would want to be out of the woods if they were choosing between staying in the woods, and leaving the woods.

Coming out of the woods 

When you admit to yourself and the public, that you are a bear (large hairy homosexual male)
'Whoah, tyler is finally coming out of the woods everyone!"

Hate Sink 

A person you hate intensely not because they deserve such hatred but because they serve as a focus for your general hatred. A healthy way to dispense with excess animosity.
Jake's not really that big an asshole. He just serves as my hate sink.

A toe rag was originally a foot wrapping used, since mediaeval times up until the mid-nineteenth century, to protect the foot from chafing by boots or shoes. As these were, quite literally, rags they weren’t usually washed, and so with use they became very smelly until they were thrown away. Because of the similarity in smell, toe rag also became the name applied to dried, salted cod or other things with a strong, unpleasant, fishy smell. It didn’t take that long before the name was applied to someone who was an obnoxious, unpleasant OIC.
1 “Socks! Those aren’t socks you smelly git, they’re toe rags!”
2 “What have you been cooking? Smells like toe rag!”
3 “I can smell ‘er fanny from ‘ere, proper toe rag.”
4 That Heale Malcolm is a right toe rag.
