“Popping off.” Like, what are you doing this afternoon? Gettin’ poppin. Oh, are you at work? Poppin’ off? Are you hanging out with your friends tonight, you could be a little pop-tart. Popping off. Get it? Poppin’!

I actually think I started it, but, because I kind of think it’s kind of stupid to call a significant other a boyfriend or a girlfriend, I started calling it my “special man friend” or my “special woman friend,” and that’s really caught on. So, now we all refer to everybody else’s significant other as special man friend or special woman friend.
