I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

what does the phrase "flip your nut" mean to you guys?

If I heard it I'd think "that means going crazy and that person must be British somehow."

I may have learned it from British comedies. Or fic.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

In the talk show host box, what connects to book that isn't book club ?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Hee. Connie says more or less what I was going to say. At any rate, the meaning is pretty clear, I don't know what the crack smokers you were talking to were thinking, ita.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Lee - You will have to ask one of the students here about that.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I googled "flip your nut" (the exact phrase) and only got 13 matches. So it's a tad obscure....

A particular student ? None of the generalized student terms I can think of worked.

Unrelatedly, what does the phrase "flip your nut" mean to you guys?

Except in some very strange and uncommon circumstances, I would take it exactly as you meant it, ita. I've had some entertaining reactions to saying "flip out like mammal" in non-Buffista areas.

I swear, when my supervisors announced we were sneaking out at 2:30pm, it's like they chummed the waters. Where did all this work suddenly come from?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Mmm. Chum.

I think my friend's a pervert. That must be it. Which is subconsciously why I avoided asking him to explain what nutflipping meant to him,, obviously.

Thanks Sophia! Now I have all of the boxes uncovered, even though several of them are close to empty.
