What's up with those birds?

Phrase used when expressing disbelief or dislike for a given situation. As in, "Why is this happening?"

Born from a third grader's art project. The children were asked to write a story that corresponded with a picture they were given. This particular picture was of a man standing near a flock of birds taking off into flight. The child's story included the phrase, "What's up with those birds?"
Did you hear that we won't be able to use the Arts/Humanities Bridge for the next six months? What's up with those birds?

church hurt 

church hurt is where you experience a degree of distance, pain, or judgement from your church community. Essentially, you are just unable to “find your place”. This is prevalent in the Christian community, but can be extended to other religions.
Now that I am an adult I am beginning to heal from the church hurt that was inflicted on me as a child.

Huge. Surpassing normal expectations.
I was fishing with a Spinner Bait and a HONKIN pike came after it and hit it . Felt like a lawnmower running over a brick.

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
