al-in-chgo's definitions
A term a man, particularly a gay man, might use to describe his penis in length and then by width (sometimes meaning girth or circumference), in inches (20 by 15 cm). He's lying, of course. Or at least, no more than a two percent chance he's in that territory.
If he claims six by eight (six long, eight "wide" or perhaps in circumference), you're getting into choad territory. See choad also spelled chode. Demand immediate proof.

"So he told me, 'I've got an eight by six.' At first I thought he was talking about a new kind of car engine, or something. I finally figured out what he meant, but he had already proven himself to be such a jerk that I had no desire to check out that particular attribute."
Old Joke -- Q: What's a Gay Eight? A: Six inches.

Get the Eight By Six mug.by al-in-chgo March 23, 2010
Get the covert mug."Don't spit in the wind" is a commonly euphemized phrase in the USA, out of "Don't piss in the wind," a British nautical phrase with a literal meaning. Both phrases mean "Don't do something self-defeating," in the sense of "If you try to expectorate (urinate), don't do it into (against) the wind or the saliva (urine) will blow back on you in a nasty way."
A futile act is "spitting in the wind." So is a selfless but unheeding act that "boomerangs" or has dire consequences the doer hadn't contemplated, an act that "did more harm than good."

"You don't tug on Superman's cape /
You don't spit in the wind / *or 'into the wind'
You don't pull the mask off that old Lone Ranger /
and you don't mess around with Jim."

Popular song, "You Don't Mess Around With Jim", ca. 1972,

Get the spit in the wind mug.County Seat of Washington County, Virginia, in southwestern Virginia about fifteen miles northeast of the Tennesse border. Population ca. 6,000.
Active (live-)stock market, seasonal burley tobacco market, site of Federal District court which accounts for beaucoup (way too many) attorneys for hire.
Biggest cultural attributes are probably the annual Virginia Highlands Festival held on the campus of Virginia Highlands Community College, waggishly referred to as "UCLA(q.v.)," and the Barter Theater, the State Theater of Virginia. Contrary to popular opinion, neither Gregory Peck nor Ernest Borgnine was born or grew up in Abingdon, nor Ned Beatty, although they all played the Barter early in their careers.
Worst-kept secret: The really choice furniture, antiques and miscellaneous items (and often, quite good deals) are not to be found at the open-air Highlands Festival, but at a semi-secret rummage sale held by a consortium of downtown Mainline Protestant churches, named for Plum Alley, which the week-long event occupies.
Little-known facts:
. Interstate 81 runs along eastern edge of town and affords easy access to Bristol, where there is also nothing for young people to do.
. One of several thousand communities in the USA that has earned the right to call itself "the buckle on the bible belt."
. Just for fun, Google for "Abington, Virginia" (note misspelling).

"Abingdon, Virginia? Where is this Abingdon? How long to drive there from Richmond?"
"Oh, about six, seven hours if the Interstates don't clot up too much."
"That's impossible. Nowhere in Virginia takes seven hours to reach from the state capital."
"Look on a road map, for the extreme Southwestern tip which they always put in a separate little box."

Get the Abingdon, Virginia mug..
A photograph of a male nude showing all his exterior genitalia explicitly, full frontal. This is often referred to as "the full Monty", but that term's chief reference is to male-stripper performances, while "junk shot" refers specifically to photographs or videos.
"Junk" has been slang for "penis and testicles" for a number of years, and "shot" in this sense refers to photography.

"You know that famous nude magazine for straight women and gay men? Levi Johnston disappointed me. He was the main article, but no junk shot of any kind. The centerfold had him showing his bottom."
"Bummer. Pun very much intended."

Get the junk shot mug."I got so mad I wanted to kick him right in the husballs. But then I realized there'd be nothing to do that evening."

Get the husballs mug.A paraprosdokian is a figure of speech in which the latter part of a sentence or phrase is surprising or unexpected in a way that causes the reader or listener to reframe or reinterpret the first part. It is frequently used for humorous or dramatic effect, sometimes producing an anticlimax . . . sometimes a very funny turn of phrase.
So what's a "paraprosdokian"?
"Like this: I asked God for a bike, but I know God doesn't work that way. So I stole a bike and asked for forgiveness."
"I don't get it"-
"Okay, how about: Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience."
"You mean, something like: I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like my grandfather. Not screaming and yelling like the passengers in his car."
"Phrasemaker!"
