Plaidy-dugan

An ex-boyfriend of mine who dressed really well and was really attractive but couldn't get past how hot he was, and eventually drove everyone insane when he acted like an arrogant jackass. He would wear plaid every now and then.
Plaidy-dugan: "You like me even though I'm a dick to you."

Me: "Um..."

Plaidy-dugan: "You know you want me..."

Me: "Eh, whatever, I do."

Plaid Day 

Plaid Day, May 18th, is the day where the sheer magnificence and general wonderfulness of plaid is celebrated around the world. Plaid Day is celebrated by wearing plaid on your person. Those who refuse to adorn themselves in the Sacred Flannel are duly sacrificed. Serious Plaidies indulge in tribal plaid face paint and the ceremonial burning of a kilt. Common phrases used on Plaid Day include, "I'm plaid with that," "You're TOTALLY plaiding today," and "That's SO plaid."
Jessica celebrated Plaid Day by dying her hair in plaid stripes.
