One word for the ta-daa! pose? I agree that jazz hands is different. Jazz hands has kind of twinkly fingers. Flourish is the word that jumped to my mind, too, but doesn't necessarily involve a "ta-da!" |

What is a word that describes a person who has difficulty speaking with girls? Neat word, and seems terribly obscure. |

What is a word that describes a person who has difficulty speaking with girls? I think misogynist is really extreme for this context, considering it implies hatred and mistrust of women and carries a very negative connotation. And though a misogynist might choose not to speak to a woman, I don't think that's a typical trait associated with misogynists. |

Word for the mutual transfer of belongings to their appropriate domains I hadn't thought of it, but you're right about rectify. It makes more sense for example #2 than example #1, although I still think it's applicable. |

Grease quote explanation “Pinkslips ownership papers?” @Peter Shor That's true, at least in my state the "slips" are actually yellow, hence just "slips." But racers will still know what you mean, I think, if you use "pink slips." |

Grease quote explanation “Pinkslips ownership papers?” @PimPumPunk I confess I don't know Grease well. A street racer would know immediately what "slips" meant, but I don't know if Danny was savvy. "Pink ladies" is actually a kind of apple, so that makes for a pretty funny mis-translation. Although, isn't "Pink Ladies" one of the groups in Grease? |

Grease quote explanation “Pinkslips ownership papers?” "Racing for slips" or "racing for pinks" is common street racing slang for putting up the loser's car as the prize. |

Where did “cc” and “bcc” come from? @T.E.D. Yes, mimeos as well, that purple seduction. But carbon paper also had a nice, kind of freshly sharpened pencil smell. |

Where did “cc” and “bcc” come from? Ah, carbon paper. I loved the smell of it. This answer was so obvious to me, I didn't think of posting it. Reminds me of when my junior secretary asked me what I meant by the "Return" key. |

What is a word that describes a person who has difficulty speaking with girls? Is it specifically girls or is it the opposite sex (a girl who has difficulty speaking with boys)? Is the difficulty related to a specific mode, like flirting? |
