The mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell 

“The Mitochondria is the Powerhouse of the Cell” is an expression describing the function of mitochondria organelles found in the cells of eukaryote (Fancy word for Plant and Animal cell) organisms.

The phrase is typically mocked as an example of impractical information taught in public schools.

Life: Do u even know what taxes are?

spin the cell phone 

A modern variation on the spin the bottle game. It's usually played with a group of men and women, perhaps in addition to or after drinking, that involves spinning a cell phone in turn, and the person who the top of the cell phone (works best with phones with an antenna) stops spinning on must kiss the person who spun it. NGK (No Guy Kissing) rules should be applied at all times. If the cell phone happens to stop on a guy when a guy spun it, the girl nearest to the stopped cell phone must kiss the guy who spun it. Rules against girl-on-girl kissing are unheard of and against nature.
"Hey, now that we're all drunk, let's play spin the cell phone!"

The Splinter Cell 

The art of Splinter Cell-ing involves entering a cubicle and graciously performing a dump, without touching the surrounding toilet floor or the toilet itself. This can be performed as a simple one-person challenge, or be used as a practical joke by remaining off the floor undetected until the next user of said cubicle enters and the surprise is released.
Jake: I just used the toilet, and felt a dripping on my head, I looked up to see Sam Fisher himself about to shit on my head
Steve: That's the best performance of The Splinter Cell ever!
