stick em' up 

A long, drawn-out story or joke, that NO ONE thinks is funny (except for the person telling it). May sometimes result in an awkward silence or situation. Generally, a "stick emmm' uppppppp" is used in a group setting when one person is really excited about their story, but by the time they look up at their audience, they notice that everyone surrounding them is pulling their eyes and cheeks closer together with their hands... this is the motion for a "stick em' upppp!"

Basically is "stick emm' uppppp" is something similar to when someone smiles, while putting two thumbs up... then quickly changes their expression to annoyed and immediately turns their two thumbs down, implying that something was actually NOT funny (contrary to what the story teller believes).
Sarah: Have you guys see that episode of Fresh Prince where Will is scared of MADD DOGG, but tries to distract him by saying, "You are Dreamminnngggg" (at this point sarah is waving her hands up and down like Will) (she is also laughing so much she can barely speak)

Hamz, Misha, Siymack, Natasha, Sharghi, Baharak, Nima, Assal: (all have their hands on their face, pulling their eyes and cheeks with their fingers, just waiting to say, "Stick em' up!"

sidenote: once you get the hang of it-- all you have to do is start to move your hands towards your face... and the other person will say, "Ok ok , I get it. I'll stop talking now..."

(at this point, you could technically "stick up" these examples)

It is said of the situation where a person has the bad luck to make contact with his testicles against an undefined surface or object, intentioned or not.
Given the nature of the word, it is more appropriate to design cases where the interaction is made with a moving object, for example, a ball.
Although it is extremely painful for the victim, it tends to be considerably funny to people who witness it.
Today in the baseball game the pitcher took a nutshot; the baseball hit him in the nuts.

Man, I just watched the funniest nutshot video ever.

Nerd neck 

A "human" that spends so much time playing video games that their posture is level nerd neck. Everytime anyone goes tryhard they hunch down and their neck gets longer there fore a nerd neck is always hunched down cause they're always going try hard. In other words a nerd neck is a try hard, since their neck is 100% longer than the average human being due to playing too many video games and taking them serious, nerd necks are not even considered human anymore but something more sad. Nerd necks are often found on fortnite, their natural habitat usually being tilted towers.
