    Restaurants cook food, not make words.

    You're very own source:

    http://www.thefreedictionary.com/dinner

    Obviously supper only refers to a evening meal, not arguing that. I don't understand why people are so insistent that dinner cannot though. I'm merely pointing out that by the use of "lunch" and "dinner" at restaurants, the latter is clearly more popular and understandably used to refer to an evening meal...even though it could refer to either one.

    My Pops used to tell me to "quit looking through my belt buckle". Took me a while to figure that one out but finally got it.
    That means quit thinking with the small head and use the larger one.

    You want a "coke", which means soda or pop (which are yankee terms)

    Use your head for something besides growing hair.

    Pass the mop, save the dishes, taking a bat (bath), visited by the redheaded stepchild.
    Mais yea (My yea) or yea after every statement of fact. He should have brought his umbrella because its storming outside, mais yea! You going to drop a deuce, yea ?
    Take a grunge or dump. A cold one (beer). Stacking BB's ( means getting nothing done)

    "Couldn't be bothered."........ I'm still trying to figure that one out. :squint:

    Before you can submit the ID10t form you have to fill the BA-1100-N, all four parts and take it to the Group W bench.

    pyroot/piroot - I'm guessing at a spelling here, but it refers to rummaging through stuff or looking for something, such as "The dog's been pyrootin' in the trash again" or "Don't you kids be pyrooting through your daddy's tools!" One of my grandmothers would go into giggle fits if someone used it, and tell a favorite story about her and a relative and the use of that word, while my other grandmother used it commonly and thought nothing odd about it.

    Well how do I put the smoke back in? / Where do I get more smoke from?

    Once it gets out, you can never put it back in.

    "Dude, we hooked up this car amp and as soon as we turned the ignition on, this blue smoke came pouring out of it"

    "Sorry bro, you let the magic smoke out. It won't work without the magic smoke!"

    I've personally let the magic smoke out of a motherboard before too........

    "Couldn't be bothered."........ I'm still trying to figure that one out. :squint:

    That's kind of an English (British) expression that means something like "I didn't feel like doing it."
    Ex: "Me mum asked me to walk the dog but I just couldn't be bothered."

    IWhen someone asks how I'm doing I have two responses depending on mood. "Living the dream." And "I'm not dead...yet."

    I say "close the light" to mean turn the light off. My wife takes immense pleasure in teasing me for that.

    I still call generic Coke soda. I'm from NY, some habits die hard.

    "Couldn't give a rat's ass" is a favorite.

    I have MANY flavorful insults that are all mine and often generate looks of bewilderment. Stuff like "tough guy **** (f-word) nuts" and "you'd suck a cat's cock if you had one" are my most obscure and ire inspiring.

    I also just remembered "kick her in the **** and user he as a snow shoe."
