This week's lingo: "If there's one thing I love..."
Example: You are spending your weekend at your summer camp. The camp has just hired a new chef, no not a new cook, a chef. For lunch, he serves, among other things, sweet potato fries and chocolate cake. You run to the line, get your plate piled high, and begin devouring these delicious dishes. With your mouth half full, you look up at your girlfriends and proudly declare, "If there's one thing I love, it's sweet potato fries and chocolate cake!"
Why it works: Though you may believe that you sound stupid for saying the one thing you love is really two things, placing this importance, the importance of being the number one thing in your life, is perhaps the best way to describe to others just how much you love these foods. In short, this phrase is absolutely perfect when attempting to express the value something has in your life, no matter how many things you describe.
Example: You are chillin' with your guy friends, using your typical lingo and they are making fun of you like they do on the reg. Annoyed beyond belief, you sassily say, "If there is one thing I love, it's when you make fun of me."
Why it works: This sassy comment will really catch any bully off guard. They will immediately shift all of their attention from coming up with their typical jerky comments to internally debating whether or not you are serious. This immediately shifts the entire focus of the conversation and makes your perpetrator look dumb.
