The Sly Code

One Friday night in a cold February way back in 2010, I sent my friend Ben a drunken text about watching the movie ‘Daylight,’ which lead me to the idea of a discreet code system involving Sylvester Stallone movies. I call it the ‘Sly Code’ you use a Stallone movie to basically refer to the situation you are currently in with a lady. The code is easy, all you do is text a friend what movie(s) you are watching and they automatically know the situation you are in. I will warn you, it is a fairly graphic code and is not meant for the meek.

Daylight- Not having sex… There could be many reasons why, but the person receiving the text will find it hilarious due to the others misfortune.
The Expendables- One night stand… Some good explosions and you are gone like Dolph Lundgren’s acting Career.
First Blood- Virgin territory…Hopefully there will be sequels otherwise you are just a horrible person.
Cop Land- Minor…you should always ID, but sometimes things happen.
Assassins- Cock Blocked… People will try and prevent you from hooking up, and these people are horrible, no good, very bad people.
Demolition Man- Cock Blocker…You are cock blocking others around you. For it is hilarious and very entertaining to see the frustration on other people’s faces.
Judge Dredd- You got caught… or you are wearing a helmet, but most likely you got caught
The Specialist- Third base… It is a skill.
Cliffhanger- Blue Balls… The only thing worse than Daylight
Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot- Cougar…I use the term ‘Cougar’ loosely for it basically refers to any old woman, no matter how attractive.
Tango & Cash- Threesome…If by chance it is a ‘Devils Threesome,’ it becomes Tango & Tango
Rocky 1 thru 5-Ranking system of how crazy/insane a situation is…Rocky being your run of the mill situation, Rocky V being ‘I don’t know how we got to this point.’
Rocky Balboa- I am in a situation which we will never speak of ever again, it never happened, don’t ask me about this in the morning… I hope I never have to use this one.

It is possible to have a double or triple feature or even to start off with one movie just to switch it half way through.

Example- I was watching ‘Cop Land,’ but realized it was a bad idea so I watched ‘Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot,’ instead, which was also a bad idea.

I am sure women can also use this code system, but I feel like Reese Witherspoon or Kate Hudson movies would be more fitting.

  1. The running tally of "Watching Daylight" texts from Christopher since that night in February where this whole 'Sly Code' idea took shape....4. It think its a solid number. Not rediculously high, but just enough to be really really funny when I get the text. Christopher, I feel as though you did a solid job with this and probably have had too many nights "watching daylight" to have honed this code to the level you have.
