I want to propose two entries for Wikpedia...I have heard these words/terms over the years and I sort of
assumed they were commonly used
Steam job (noun) A made up story told to a person in fun just to aggravate him usually used with humorous intent
for example: That story John made up to tell Jane was only a steam job
Get your goat./Got his goat A term used to describe doing something or saying something to deliberately cause
a person to become annoyed
for example Mary mentioned that rumor to Elaine just for the purpose of getting her goat (annoying her) — This comment was unsigned.
- We already have get one's goat - perhaps we need some redirects for the various forms.
- You would need to provide evidence for steam job.
- We are Wiktionary, not Wikipedia. SemperBlotto 08:59, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
