I just discover this thread, and it looks good so, I'm jumping on the bandwagon.
Jumping on the bandwagon -  getting involved with the new trend or fad.

This antique clock that she found in the pawn shop is the real Mccoy not some cheap imitation -  
The Real McCoy - The real thing

I take his comment with a pinch of salt because his ideas is always against what I have in mind.
Take with a pinch of salt - Accept a truth but with reservations.

Don't worry about it, I'm a teflon person what ever he did doesn't hurt me . -
Teflon - unscathed and no 'mud' sticking
This term was coined by President Jimmy Carter in the 1980's referring to the late President Ronald Reagan.


Did you know that okay is also a slang?
Some say, It is a shortened version of 'Oll Korrect'. Used by President Andrew Jackson.
And while others say 'Orl Korrect' - military reporting indicating troops were in good order.

Mod.. thank you.

On with the lesson.

Many of us submit the Income Tax assessment at the 11th hour.
11th hour - Late; shortly before an anticipated event.

It's impossible to work under a shoestring budget when the client wants the whole nine yards.
Shoestring - limited resources.
The whole nine yards - everything.

"Yeah, I'll come to your birthday party in a monkey-suit", he said to Anna tongue in cheek.
Monkey suit - Tuxedo
Tongue in cheek - Kidding. Not to be taken seriously. One definition also give tongue in cheek as suppresing a laughter.

Love this thread ! :bgrin:

Sometimes quite a few slangs are used in one sentence.
For example:

I抦 so bushed that I think I抦 just going to kick back, veg out and watch some solid stuff on the tube.

bushed - tired/exhausted
kick back - relax
veg out - also relax/not doing anything, related to the couch & tv
solid - good
stuff - things
tube - TV

Knock it off and stop goofing around!

knock it off - stop it
goofing around - being silly or wild
