towel trick 

Also, towel-trick, towel-tricking

From the popular way to get rid of your XBox 360's red ring of death, the "towel trick" involves putting a towel around your system and leaving it on for 24 hours, forcing it to overheat and thereby frying it. However, it is claimed to get your 360 to work for at least a few more days.

Now, it is also used to describe taking drastic measures to save or fix something.
Man, I got the red ring of death on my 360 the other day: hardware failure! I'm gonna try to towel trick it and see what happens.

Guy1: I can't believe I forgot to do that paper! I'm gonna copy Joe's and hope the Professor doesn't notice...
Guy2: Stop towel-tricking it, man!

Al got his finger chopped off by a saw at work the other day. I heard he towel-tricked it by packing it in ice and running to the emergency room.

Beyond exhausted, so much so that one appears to be drunk. Symptons include staring into space, taking hours to respond to simple questions, pausing randomly inbetween words, walking unsteadily, falling asleep standing up, and generally acting tired and spaced-out.
I pulled an all-nighter on that paper last night and boy am I trashed.

yankee hangover 

Originating from the 2004-2005 baseball season, "Yankee Hangover" refers to the feeling one gets from staying up all night watching a Yankee game. It was first used in September 2005 for the Yankees vs. Red Socks playoff games, which commonly lasted well into the night--most ending at 1:30-2:30 in the morning.
Guy1: "That Yankee vs Redsocks game went into the 12th inning last night, and I watched it until the end. Man, I'm exhausted and can't think straight!"
Guy2: "Sound's like your suffering from a bad case of Yankee Hangover."
