The Kinks are the village green preservation society.
This phrase is derived from an album called
"The Kinks are The Village Green Preservation Society," released by The Kinks in 1968. It was uniquely out-of-step with its time. Everyone else was singing about rippling rainbows and purple trees, Ray Davies was singing about a happy England which never really existed in the glory in which he paints it, but which could if everybody listened to this album!
God Bless the Village Green and God Save The Kinks!
The Village Green Preservation Society:
"We are the office block persecution affinity,
God save little shops, china cups and virginity."
Village Green:
"Out in the country, far from all the soot and noise of the city,
there's a village green.
It's been a long time, since I last set eyes on the church with the steeple, down by the village green.
It was there I met a girl called Daisy, and kissed her by the old oak tree."
A progressive conservative in approach to problem solving. A person who is progressive by recombining ideas that worked in the past into new ideas. Progressives generally want to try things that didn't work in the past, because, well, it wasn't them trying it, and they are way cooler than the last people. (Or they don't know it failed last time.) Conservatives generally like trying things that worked before but aren't smart or cool enough to make cool or clueless people understand or like the old idea.
Obama is slippin! He talked all progressive, but he's like some dang progervative.

"Why is water becoming more expensive for the city now?"
"Oh, cause last year I tried really hard to encourage everyone to save water in several different ways. I guess more people acted than expected."
"Well thanks to you, the WHOLE city is preservation-fucked!"

While our lifespan is the number of years we will live, our healthspan is the number of healthy years we will have and our sexspan is is the number of years we will continue to be healthy enough to continue having an active sex life.
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
