Weird Words

Evidence That Humans Have Inadequate Communication Skills

# 1   -  "Come in Handy" (whatever a handy is).
# 2   -  "Dead Ringer" (horseplay).
# 3   -  "Sight for Sore Eyes" (sounds unpleasant).
# 4   -  "You Don't Say" (or apparently you do - I don't know).
# 5   -  "Shindig" (this also sounds unpleasant).
# 6   -  "Korbin" (Nibbler taking over for the day).
# 7   - "Patience" (more annoying than weird)
# 8   - "The cat's out of the bag" (why did you put it in there to begin with?)
# 9   - "In the nick of time" (and other foolishness)
# 10 - "Hot diggity" (I think they make medicine for that...)
# 11 - "Sick and tired" (well, go see a doctor!)
# 12 - "Hoodwinked" (sounds... stupid!)
# 13 - "Basset" (cat word for 'stupid dog')
# 14 - "Catnap" (totally genuine cat homage to bassets)
# 15 - "Fixed" (nothing broken, nothing to fix)
# 16 - "Dreadlocks" (not really having anything to do with bad hair)
# 17 - "Exterminate" (don't really need that modifier)
# 18 - "The jig is up" (whatever that means)
# 19 - "Behooves" (no thanks, I like my paws)
# 20 - "Caddy (or "kitty") corner" (you people are all idiots)
