corridor class

Standing or sitting in the sections between carriages on a busy train, 'cos all the seats are taken.
Usually on an unplanned long-distance trip, where the seats are all booked in advance.
About as far from first class as you can get without going outside the train.

After missing the train we'd booked seats on, we had to travel corridor class until we got to Birmingham.

shipping

crotchdog

"Dismal paparazzo whose career consists of lying in the gutter desperately pointing his camera up the skirts of celebrities exiting limousines."

haiku

Haikus have three lines.
The first has five syllables,
Then seven, then five.

Proper haikus are about nature, especially the seasons; the structure tends to be more important than the words.

A haiku:
Underneath a tree
Summer air is so easy.
So is yo mama.
