throw my hat

To throw one's hat in (as "in the ring") is to:
1) to challenge or contend for something.

2) nominate someone or oneself for something. To volunteer.

A boxing metaphor that originated in the early 19th century when one who wished to challenge a boxer would throw his hat into the ring as a way of having your challenge noticed in a crowded ring.
In 1912 Theodore Roosevelt, who was an advid boxer, was the first presidential candidate to use "throw my hat in the ring" to announce his run at the U.S. presidency.

turkey coma

The inevitable and unavoidable nap that occurs about 45 minutes after gorging one's self on a Thanksgiving Day turkey feast and 15 minutes into a traditional, holiday football game. The cause of this an amino acid called L-Tryptophan which turkey meat has in abundance.
Where's Daddy? I haven't seen him since Thanksgiving dinner.

He inhaled two full plates of roast turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, corn and yams smothered in gravy then sat down by the fireplace to watch the Packers-Lions. The poor bastard fought like hell, but could only make it to the 2nd quarter before succumbing to a full-blown turkey coma.

Vente

A word that reportedly means "20" in Italian, but at Starbucks it simply means extra-large.
I hate going into a Starbuck's for coffee. The dumbass baristas always treat me like an idiot because I confuse a "Tall, "Grande" and "Vente". "Short" is the only size that makes sense and "Grande" is a Spanish word! WTF is that?! Why can't they just call them medium, large and extra large?
