[Game]What the hell is a "Sicilian Chainsaw?"

[Warmduscher]

Shamelessly ripped off from RPG.net (with apologies to Greg Stolze) it needs to get into ENWorld as well. The whole purpose is to invent fun new slang terms and ask others what they could actually mean. The one who awnsers then asks the next one.

To use the title as example, a Sicilian Chainsaw is an unlicensed suregon you go to if you need something done very cheap and/or off the books.

Now I've heard of the Iron Curtain of course, but what the heck is an Iron Lampshade?

 

[Dannyalcatraz]

...but what the heck is an Iron Lampshade?

The use of gauntlets or other knuckle-covering specifically to knock someone out, as in:

"Give him the Iron Lampshade, Louie!"
"What" *klunk* "oOOooohhhhgurgle..."*thud*

What is a "Sandstone Saddle?"

What is a "Sandstone Saddle?"

The sensation you get when you sit on the toilet too long.


But, what on earth does it mean when, "Your flashlight's gone dim"?

But, what on earth does it mean when, "Your flashlight's gone dim"?

It means you've had one too many drinks and your neural processing power isn't as good as it normally is when you're sober.

What the frack is a Telescopic Toilet?

What the frack is a Telescopic Toilet?

That would be the completely and utterly inappropriate use of a pro-level car-vacc for interrogation purposes.

"No! No! Nooooooooooooooo!" *wshhhhhhhhZZZZZZthorkflupplefluppleflupple*

What, exactly, is a "Manitoba Bark Biscuit?"

Heh, now thats an obscure one. You know that old movie "The Usual Suspects" where a guy invents an epic story and takes the names and places for it from items on the desk and stuff on the pinboard? Its like that only that the guy fails horribly to come up with anything remotely believable. Originally a guy had a late-night snack in the kictchen but his wife caught him as he was just swallowing the last bite of a pack of chocolate. As he was supposed to diet he tried to invent something harmless when asked what he's eating there. Unfortunately the things he saw was a roadmap of Manitoba, a bowl made of treebark and a pack of biscuits.... It didn't go well.

But when we're at foodstuffs, what the hell is a Cherry Bomb supposed to be? I overheard it in my local bar and asked the bartender for one thinking it might be a drink but he only looked at me funny.

In all actuality its a sort of explosive used by teenagers and social misfits to create an even bigger mess than that found in a toilet.

What is a "New Orleans Hat Trick?"

You know, that scene from Total Recall. It's Martian street slang for a hooker with three breasts.
