Sneaks Slip 'N Slang - Phlophinay


Origin: Unknown

Definition: A phlophinay has been commited when someone almost says or does a very stupid or ridiculous thing but catches herself before actually doing it--thus saving herself a bit of embarassment--only to immediately tell everyone about the stupid thing
she almost said or did.

Example: Cleo broke up with Tony because he almost called her by his ex-girlfriend's name and was foolish enough to then tell her about his near Freudian-slip. What a phlophinay on his part.
