happy prince song

To semi-publicly carry a torch for someone.
-- That guy's TOTALLY carrying a torch...like a Statue of Liberty.

-- Um, that's something else...and he seems to have been petrified before he could quite raise that arm. He's more like the Happy Prince.

-- So that's him who's faintly humming...the Happy Prince song.

nogo

Immobility induced by fear of some trick based on false or inconsistent representations in an offer.
-- So John didn't go; I thought he had more fomo?!

-- No, he has fomo, but, his was a SEPARATE consideration -- as that it was the merest accident that he heard of the party, he couldn't square its generosity with it capriciousness, and so doubted what should be done.

-- Ah, he was nogo then.

Man-U

Short for Manchester United, which means, for a man who has sojourned long, and endured much, even to be thought to be a Manchester, to be finally united with his muse.
-- So, after being mistakenly thought to be all about the carbon cockprint, he endured being a Manchester.

-- Yeah, and now that he'll hook-up with his muse he'll be a Man-U.

taxitunity

Commonly mistaken for the cultural-unity people feel in-griping about tax-woes (like surviving tornadoes) it refers to where taxidermists see it not as that the only things certain in-life are death and taxes, as death and taxidermy (as some are wild mountain-folk who avoid taxes) and so every new roadkill is a new opportunity.
-- Say, lookey here, we don't pay taxes, and I'm about all talked-out cussin' the government and the weather, what to chew the fat over?

-- You read my mind. Look, some roadkill, an opportunity to do some taxidermy.

-- Yeah, it's a real taxitunity.

miserly-angel

Where a woman, to the man's arguably limited perspective, seems both SO generous and yet so ARBITRARY in her offer, such as to induce mental meltdown in the man as a feedback loop he can't process.
-- So he couldn't understand how she was SO generous and yet so ARBITRARY in her offer, and this is now his major pre-occupation.

-- Ah, he feels she's a miserly-angel, and now he worships her.

hack-passing

Similar to buck-passing.  To avoid responsibility for direct communication and admitting how one really feels in-favour of benign hacking of a lover's social-media to disclose how one feels.
-- He could never figure-out how, if her overtures were genuine, why they were random, like if she WERE really interested, why not contact him directly rather than leave it to chance whether he heard her or not!!

-- Yeah, I understand that his brain went into a feedback loop later, as to how she could be so generous as to make him that offer, but so miserly as to be inflexible.

-- Did they try to connect?

-- Yeah, but it was a comedy-of-eros, only not so funny.  Anyone who knows his history would understand why he was scared and tentative, but she was closed to those icebreaking freeze-ups.

-- So why not communicate directly?

-- Oh he did, eventually, to take responsibility for making things work, but she has challenges doing that.  The closest she has come so far is, it SEEMS, to hack his posts, and edit out whatever she doesn't like, leaving what she thinks by implication.

-- So he suffers daily for his mistakes -- he's crazy about her -- and more than he deserves, but yet she resorts to hack-passing?

The Behind the Music Presidency

Formula-narrative driven public-consciousness regarding the President's Progress, where epic heights are routinely imperiled with chasmic pitfalls, and where for every second speech the 'stakes could not be higher,' will 'define his/her presidency,' and invites the usual cliches by the typical pundits.
-- Phew!! I'm just glad that, for all the upheavals, that things are finally going great!!

-- But wait, are they?! Sure, if there's a great speech to be given, he's more intrepid than FDR (who rationed his fireside chats, so as not to be overexposed,) but this next challenge coming-up will DEFINE HIS PRESIDENCY!!

-- It's the Behind the Music Presidency...there's always the VP Oprah fallback position....
