Frank Klaune's definitions
An item which is broken, defective or substandard. Two explainations have been historically applied. The first is that in olden times when food was scarce, people would leave the bones, fat and undesireable portions behind after eating their meal. These second-rate items would be used for soup the next day, so as such, the poor-quality leftovers would "go to pot". The second (and more plausible) explaination is that in the days of the industrial revolution and early mass-production, assembly workers would occasionally find a defective or out-of-tolerance part which was not suitable for use. This part would be sent back to the smelting room to be melted down and re-cast a second time. Since the smelting was done in a giant pot, these defective parts had "gone to pot". In either case, the phrase gained popular use by the American homeowner who would occasionally wear out an item which would fail- often at an inconvenient time.
Frank didn't want to take his car in for routine maintenance. I wasn't surprised when his vacation was ruined after the car went to pot last summer.

Get the Harry Palmer mug.An unusual athletic maneuver used for excretion. The "barn dropper" shimmies up the stall wall in a public restroom with a high ceiling. With one foot on top of each side wall and the pants dropped, the barn dropper lets go with the dump. A successful barn drop results in the target (the toilet) sucessfully hit. The barn drop is a common tactic in men's dormitories and frat houses across the USA and often done in the presence of a large, loud drunken crown of well wishers and spectators.
"Damn, the other night we got back to the frat. I heard all this commotion, and there was a huge crowd at the party chanting while Jack was doing a barn drop. He missed the target. The janitor resigned the next day."

Get the barn drop mug.Phrase used to describe powerful B.O. (body odor). A person with powerful, stenchy, reeking B.O. may smell like onion soup. The smell is common among the french people.
Damn, Frank didn't take a shower for two weeks. When he came into the room, Mike said, "PHEW! Onion soup!"

Get the onion soup mug.When you are in a social / public situation and have the urge to pass a considerable amount of gas. If it has been a long time since your last fart, you are unsure of:
1) The sound level (volume) of the fart
2) The smell level (stench) of the fart
... so you let out a small amount of the fart in a discreet fashion- thus you have let a test fart.

Frank was in church the other day and had to fart really bad. He said he intended to let a test fart but instead of a squibbler, it turned out to be a blastus and he wound up shitting his pants in the middle of the sermon. Damn, what an idiot!
