Peter gets in the office where he works and notices that Sally and Pamela are LAUGHING THEIR HEADS OFF.


PETER: Why are you laughing your heads off?
SALLY: Because Pamela has just told me that her boyfriend bought her a pink polka dot bikini.
PETER: I can't believe it!!! LOL (laughing out loud)
PAMELA: Oh no! Even Peter is laughing his head off now.

If you LAUGH YOUR HEAD OFF, you laugh a lot, loudly. When was the last time you laughed your head off?

TO SHOOT THE BREEZE


Peter enjoys shooting the breeze with his friends, especially on Sunday afternoons.


So, if you shoot the breeze, you:


a. take a gun to hunt animals in the breeze.
b. talk to someone about important things.
c. talk to someone or a group of people about unimportant things.


...
...
...


If you chose letter C, you're right!

How do you like shooting the breeze?

TO ACHE FOR SOMETHING / SOMEONE


Sally is into a guy she met some weeks ago at a disco. She is talking to Betty about him:


BETTY: So, what does he look like?
SALLY: He's tall and well-built. He has short dark hair and blue eyes. He's so cute!
BETTY: He seems to be a good catch.
SALLY: And I can't stop thinking of him! I don't know how to make him ache for me.
BETTY: Oh no! You are in love with this guy.
SALLY: Stop it! I'm not!
BETTY: So why do your eyes shine with delight when you talk about him?

If you ACHE FOR something or someone, it means that you want it or you want this person very much.


How about you? Are you aching for love?

TO STRIKE UP A CONVERSATION


What happens if you strike up a conversation with someone? Do you:


a) finish a conversation?
b) start a conversation?
c) break a conversation?

If your answer is letter B, you are right. If you STRIKE UP A CONVERSATION, you start a conversation with someone.

A CLOSET GAY

Sally and Janet are talking about Marcus, a guy who works with them.

JANET: Oh boy, he's so handsome, isn't he?

SALLY: He sure is, but there's something I need to tell you.

JANET: Spill the beans!

SALLY: Peter and I think he's gay.

JANET: Marcus? Gay? I don't think so. Besides, he acts like a real man.

SALLY: I don't know. He may be a closet gay. He is never seen with any girls and he's always hanging out with Tom.

JANET: Really?

If a guy, for instance, hasn't come out of the closet yet, he's a CLOSET GAY.

BOOKWORM

Peter meets Joshua at the bookstore.

PETER: Hey Joshua, how are you man?

JOSHUA: Hey Peter, I'm fine. How are you?

PETER: I'm doing fine. Boy, are you buying all these books?

JOSHUA: Yeah! You know, I love reading.

PETER: You're a real bookworm. Every time I see you, you are either buying books or borrowing them from the library.

Do you read a lot? If yes, you are a BOOKWORM.

THAT'S A RIP-OFF!

Sally and Peter went shopping this morning in order to buy a gift for Sally's best friend. While they were window-shopping, something drew their attention:

SALLY: What? $89.99 for a Justin Bieber's CD? That's a complete rip-off!

PETER: Spare me!

If something is a RIP-OFF, it means that it is not worth what you pay for it. It's too expensive!
