To remove, end usage, or take something out or away. Despite ALL other posts suggestion the origion of this phrase there is only one true answer:
Chumley's, a famous and OLD New York speakeasy, is located at 86 Bedford St. During Prohibition, an enterance through an interior adjoing courtyard was used, as it provided privacy and discretion for customers.
As was (and is) a New York tradition, the cops were on the payroll of the bar and would give a ring to the bar that they were coming for a raid. The bartender would then give the command "86 everybody!", which meant that everyone should hightail it out the 86 Bedford enterance because the cops were coming in through the courtyard door.

An obscenely obnoxious young child who can't seem to behave in any place, at any time. Typically has clueless progenitors who are too busy getting drunk and socializing to watch their children. The bane of waitstaff and service personnel everywhere.
"That little crotch fruit almost made me drop my tray!"
"Ma'am, please keep your crotch fruit away from the knives in the kitchen section."

Describes something that we are told is coming soon (game updates, TV shows, etc.) but we have heard it enough times to know better. Whoever is saying x event will occur soon is considered to own the trademark on the word because they have used it so many times.

2. A meme relating to a mid-term philosophy essay paper titled "Mario, the Idea vs. Mario, the Man" featuring iconic phrases such as "Everyone knows Mario is cool as fuck (horrible opening)" "And why do we think of him as fondly as we think of the mythical (nonexistent?) Dr Pepper? (???)" "When Mario leaves his place of safety to stomp a turty, he knows that he may Die. (Ok?)" and "The lifekind. (What) Perchance."

Invited to a birthday party, wedding, baby or bridal shower by someone rarely see or talk to just to bring a gift. Invite is usually by mass email. Not really friends with the person.
Receive mass email invite to someone's birthday party, whom I have not spoken to in a year. Tried to maintain contact or get together, but person too busy to get together, usually makes no effort. Told by friend when people who make no effort to call or stay in contact, but send out a mass birthday or shower e-vite, are gift grabbing.
Attend baby shower, mother to be barely acknowledges your presence, but happy to take the gift you spent your money on. Barely or does not say "thank you", receive a thank you note via email by the grandmother to be. Blatant gift grab.
