It is a phrase commonly used when a person holds negative or confidential information about you and ends up blurting it out to people who really don't need to know.
This can take place during big surprises and important events in life such as meeting with a potential employer or even in an attempt of scoring a first date with a gorgeous male/female.
This can cause extreme awkwardness and possibly even fatal depending on the circumstances but by stating this phrase you can state the fact that the person who opened his mouth shouldn't have said anything, even though the damage has already been delt.

when you take a puff of weed and keep it in, then you take a shot or a big chug of beer and then let out the smoke.

A sarcastic variation of the phrase whatever floats your boat. Used in place of 'whatever floats your boat' when someone's preferences are harmful or you simply disagree with them.

Mark: Haha, she doesn't mean it. She only teases me cuz she likes me.

An English post-punk band, formed in 1979 and active from then until 1981. Their members were: Simon Brighton (guitarist)
Terry Welbourn (bassist)
Colin Hopkirk (vocalist)
Nick Green (drummer)
They are sometimes attributed to being the writers of The Most Mysterious Song on The Internet, due to two of their most famous songs (The Cinema Clock and Strangers) sounding similar, although this has been mostly debunked. Their songs are actually pretty good, I would recommend checking them out.
