take the biscuit

To be the epitome of something, typically something unpleasant. To stand as the best (or more likely worst) example of a series of things.

Of all the slimy schemes Jim's pulled over the years, his attempt to pay a psychologist to testify in court that Marie, whom Jim had actually repeatedly raped the previous year, was merely paranoid, just has to take the biscuit.

Who moved the rock?

Expression of extreme fatigue, revulsion or similar burning desire to get the metaphorically exposed creepy-crawly critters out of the way as quickly as possible. A quote from Addams Family Values.

Oh, please, not more of these fanatical freaks! Not more vegetarian animal loving bomb experts! Who moved the rock?

Not more Aryan Nation types, oh please, who moved the rock?

moonspin

Something utterly ridiculous, ludicrous and otherwise beyond the pale, thought up either by someone blotto out of their mind trying to make their way home on a moonlit night, or someone impersonating them.

She's trying to give me the same old moonspin about how she couldn't help it, the bottle of Jack Daniels just jumped on her.

More of this moonspin about Creationism and that on the telly.

frigophilia

The urge to revisit a refrigerator every twenty seconds in the hope that something more appetising will somehow have materialised there in the meantime.

skin job

Derogatory term for replicant or android used in the 1982 Ridley Scott movie "Blade Runner", starring Harrison Ford and Rutger Hauer, based on the novel "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?", by Philip K. Dick. Think of all the mean-spirited epithets humans have ever flung at each other all rolled into one.

You've still got to waste four more skin jobs, Deckard.

spherical asshole

A complete asshole. An utter waste of chromosomes. Spherical because a complete asshole has no redeeming features whatsoever and is still an asshole no matter which way you look at him/her, just as a sphere presents the same circular outline no matter which direction it is viewed from.

He may have been a junkie for ten years and trashed all his friends, but even when he's gone cold turkey don't expect him to say sorry. He's a spherical asshole.
