1-2-3 rtp! - Phrase used by Canada Customs and Revenue Agency (Revenue Canada) tax collectors to describe current policy when it comes to collecting. An RTP is "Requirement to Pay" a garnishment. The "1-2-3" is the length of time before you issue a garnishment. Note: If you use this, please list the contributor as "Anonymous Tax Collector," as I still work for the CCRA, though no longer as a tax collector, and this could very well get me in hot water. If you cannot publish it without my name, please reject it.

e.g., He didn't return your phone call? 1-2-3 RTP!

1-800-466-4411 - Also known as 1-800-google, or 1-800-goog-411, it is a service similar to 411, in which you can ask someone about a phone number you do not know, and they connect you, but 1-800-google is free, and it goes through Google rather than a phone service provider, and it uses machines instead of an operator.

e.g., I just checked out 1-800-466-4411, and I can say the name of a building, such as a store, followed by the city, then state, and it gives me results (just like Internet Google). It might as well be called Google Yellow Pages, just that it's 1-800-google instead of a website.

1054 - (Pronounced ten-fifty-four)(n.) Information (or anything else) that arrives long after the event itself, especially when it arrives too late.

112123 - (n.) A sign of recognition or motto (and a bit of a credo, I suppose) among semioticians. (From semiotics luminary Charles Sanders Santiago Peirce's system of relationships among the elements of signs (words, pictures, maps, syllogisms, etc.) and their meanings, which he dubbed 'firstness,' 'secondness,' and 'thirdness' (to avoid any other terms' semantic baggage): hence, "123." Firstness can only give rise to firstness (1); secondness to both firstness (1) and secondness (2); and thirdness to all three: firstness, secondness, and thirdness (123). Hence "1,12,123.")

e.g., "Have you ever studied Peirce, Eco, or Saussure?" "Hey, 112123." "Ah, okay, so you'll understand me when I say that this particular piece is a dicent indexical legisign, yes?" "Absolutely, but I'd say it was a rhematic indexical legisign." "Rhematic?! How can you ...."

Once I got the bleeding under control, I grabbed some clean towels and headed back to the living room, but slipped in the blood and broke my tailbone.

2k - (too-kay; n.) An M&M candy. [From the fact that M is the Roman numeral for 1000. Thus, two Ms = 2000, which, in modern geek-speak is 2k (k for kilo, 1000 in Greek). One could, I suppose call it "2m," but that would be "toom" which makes then death candies---bad juju. Or we could go back to precomputer lingo and call it "2G" from "Grand" (meaning 1000, usually $1000), which would make it "tooj" or "toojee" ... but that's weird. It occurs to me as I sit here typing that we could also spell it out in scientific notation: 2*10^3. Overkill, but it would make a cool t-shirt.]

e.g., I'm gonna buy me a ten-pound bag of 2ks and pig-out royal. | I really enjoyed the rice-crispy 2ks, but I heard they stopped making them---bummer. | My sister used to call 2ks "enemies" when she was little. Someone should make bags of black and red 2ks so we can (figuratively) devour our enemies. | Black and blue 2ks would be good as a gift for somebody who's down after being put through the wringer. | All-Black 2ks for the NZ rugby team's fans ... does Mars sell M&Ms in New Zealand? | How about all red, yellow, and blue 2ks for little kids learning the primary colors? And orange, green, and purple for the secondaries? (the colors, not the kids). | Or red and blue bags for that web-show Red vs. Blue. Is anyone at Mars, Inc., listening?

Some nitpicky point upon which someone has based their personal agenda, and continues to rehash it endlessly at every opportunity. 4. (phrase) "take the Third" (like "take the Fifth"): to consider something so obviously off-topic that you refuse to discuss it.

401 - Four-oh-one. The four men and one woman Associate Justices of the United States Supreme Court whose decisions in the early 2000s will have such an impact on the current and future generations of Americans. The oh is present primarily to make it pronounceable and really has little to do with the sex of Ruth Joan Bader Ginsburg. The Mighty Four-oh-one.  

Things change. Now it's the 203 our conservative brethren will have to contend with.

e.g., At the rate they're going, the mighty 401 should soon have a backlog of wrongheaded decisions sufficient to rule the day primarily with stare decisis. | The 401's big-brains and stare decisis will be all they need to consider to write opinions, concurrences, and dissents that support their foregone conclusions.

46 and 2 - "According to Melchezedek, our planet is covered with geometrically constructed 'morpho genetic grids.' These grids extend from about 60 feet under the earth's surface to about 60 miles above the earth, arranged in geometric patterns (see 'Sacred Geometry'). Each species has its own grid, which supports life, and connects the consciousness of its particular species. Before any species can come into existence or make an evolutionary step, a new grid must be completed. When a species becomes extinct, that particular species' grid dissolves. A new grid was completed in 1989, the 'Christ-consciousness' grid. This grid will allow humans to evolve into our next version. We'll develop two additional chromosomes (which are really 'geometrical images' designed to resonate with our specific grid) for a total or 46 + 2. The main change will be a shift to the 'unity consciousness.' Every cell in your body has its own consciousness and memory. You, the higher being that occupies your body, make the millions of different consciousnesses in your body work together as one being. How does this relate to this grid? Think of yourself as a cell and the grid as the higher being. We will still have individual consciousness, but will be united in the form of a higher being in order to work as one entity. Scientifically speaking, humans don't appear to be evolving new chromosomes (or much of anything else; thanks to technology)." (Rachel Wells, eileenREMOVEME@EMEVOMERloop.com)

5050 - (n.) 1. an astonishing breakthrough (especially one remarkable for its simplicity ... at least in retrospect). 2. A novel solution (i.e., thinking outside the box). 3. A child prodigy. (from the (possibly apocryphal) story about prodigy methematician Carl Friedrich Gauss, whose math teacher tried to occupy his students by having them add up the integers 1 through 100. The story goes that the teacher had barely sat down after giving the assignment when little master Gauss approached with the correct answer on his slate: 5,050. when his astonished teacher asked how he had arrived at the correct solution so quickly, Gauss pointed out that 1+100=101, 2+99=101, 3+98=101, and so on until 50+51=101. Since there were 50 of these 101s, Gauss pointed out, the answer must be 50x101=5050. Gauss went on to write his magnum opus, the Disquisitiones Arithmeticae when he was only 21.)

e.g., "I see from the budget that we've managed to save tens of thousands on covers for the jet intakes. How did we do that?" "Well, one of the engineers saw that a $35 inflatable wading pool covered the intakes just as well as a $5,000 jet cover." "Wow,...that's real 5050: I'm impressed." | Mozart was a 5050.

599 - "I don't care" (from I Don't Care; that is, "IDC," which is, in Roman Numerals "600" (DC) with a preceding I (like a subtrahend: IV, which is "one from five"). Hence, IDC=599. Romans most certainly did not put subtrahend I's in front of D's or C's, but this is evidently a solecism or barbarity.

e.g., "Come on, man: Liv Tyler's in the lobby!" "599, dude -- I don't feel too good." | "Okay, you wanna go on the tour or see the movie first?" "599, man."

6 or six - Used as a slang term by military and civilian pilots and aviators as a shortened form of "6 o'clock" or directly behind you. "Six" may also be substituted for the hindquarters, buttocks, butt, or any other slang term used by a non-military aviator. "Six" may also be used in the phrase "Check your six," which can be used as a warning or as a greeting or salutation among pilots: Check your back. "Check Your six." = Watch out. "Check Your six." = Take care.

e.g., "He's on my 6." "You had better watch out, or I'll be on your six faster than a surface-to-air missle." (Watch yourself, or I'll be on your ass before you know it.)

86, eighty-sixed - Restaurant/bar slang: To cut someone off at the bar. 86 actually refers to the proof (alcohol content) of whiskey. As the night grew late, a bartender would surreptitiously switch the whiskey he was pouring from the more expensive stuff (over 100 proof) to the cheaper stuff (86 proof) since the drunks were too far gone to notice the difference. Shortly after that, you were likely to get to kicked out for sleeping at the bar. Colloquially it has come to mean being cut off from alcohol or being booted from the establishment. (ED. Being thrown out is usually what is meant when someone gets 86ed. The version given is just one of several versions to account for the origin of "86" with the given meaning. Caution: If you cite the pseudodictionary as your source of information, you're in danger of getting the dreaded automatic F.) |  
 
To throw someone out; to ban or bar someone. To get rid of something, to throw out. Ditch, dispose of, drop. For some, "to 86" also means "to kill" or "to murder."

e.g., When Jocko saw Chris's eyes glazing over, he decided to 86 him. | Charlie: If you get in a fight in my bar, you're 86ed for life. | We should eighty-six a lot of the words that slipped in. | "My girlfriend has a pair of shoes she adores [that] have begun to smell more strongly than a fish market. She won't get rid of them and its becoming embarrassing to take her out in public with her smelly feet. How can I tell her to eighty-six the shoes without hurting her feelings? --OSU Daily Barometer (Oregon State University), Oct. 7, 2005"
