us-selves 

The way people from New York pronounce the word "ourselves".
BILL: "Hey Tom, do y'all need any help with the project report?"
TOM: "Nuthanks. Steve an I can take care of it us-selves"
BILL: "Huh?"
TOM: "Huh? Oh sawrry, I'm from Nee Yawk."

Rebecca Black 

A singer who takes two sentences to tell us she has to have a bowl of cereal in the morning.
REBECCA BLACK: Gotta have my bowl. Gotta have cereal.
LISTENER: Now why the heck didn't she just say, "Gotta have my bowl of cereal?".

I think I might have left the blender turned on 

1: The most hilarious line ever spoken in King of the Hill. Hank Hill said this in Episode 10 of Season 1. Why was it so great? Well first, can you picture Hank Hill using a blender? Second, a blender is not something you can just leave on, because it's only on when you hold down the button.

2: A bizarre excuse to step outside for a cigarette when you don't want people to know you smoke.
(FROM KING OF THE HILL)

*Hank and Peggy are in bed.*
HANK: Uh, I got to go do some stuff. I think I might have left the blender turned on.
*Hank gets out of bed, goes outside, and lights up a cigarette.*
A mispronunciation of "totally".
I'm turtley glad it's Friday.

So in other words you're slowly glad it's Friday?

Oops. I meant I'm TOTALLY glad it's Friday.

Turtle-like, especially (but not only) in the sense of being slow.
I was late for work because the traffic was so turtley this morning.

weekend syndrome 

When you're so burned out by all you've had to do Monday through Friday that you just want to party, watch TV, etcetera the whole weekend and are unwilling to do anything important.

In extreme cases, you might be so tired that you end up wasting the entire weekend by doing things that are not only unproductive, but not even particularly interesting.
JOE: Hey what'd you do this weekend?
STEVE: Saw two movies, partied, did nothing important had fun.
JOE: Well, it was a long week, so I guess weekend syndrome is okay.
BOB: I basically spent the whole weekend playing solitaire, watching random YouTube clips, and reading random trivia on Wikipedia. So not only did I waste the whole weekend, but I didn't even waste it on anything particularly interesting.
STEVE: Dude, that's extreme weekend syndrome. What the frick did you have to do during the week?

phonecuffing 

When somebody calls you when you're about to start something, in the middle of something, or just want to be left alone. The caller just won't let you go and just keeps on talking and talking and talking and talking and talking. The caller might talk about subjects that you don't know anything about and/or have absolutely no interest in, and just when it seems like he or she is about to let you go, he or she jumps on to a whole new subject. You can be stuck in this situation for hours.
phone rings

VICTIM: Hello?
PHONECUFFER: Hey, there's this one really weird question on the physics homework
VICTIM: Okay, let's see…

10 minutes later

PHONECUFFER: Yeah, thanks man.
VICTIM: No problem.
PHONECUFFER: By the way, did you hear about that idiot?
VICTIM: Oh yeah!

16 minutes later

PHONECUFFER: But then I realized that 5 Hour Energy is better than Vault.
VICTIM: That's cool, but I've got this paper that's due in 72 hours.
PHONECUFFER: I see.

27 minutes later

PHONECUFFER: And so I dug it up on YouTube last night and I thought it was mediocre.
VICTIM: Yeah…
PHONECUFFER: I mean people think he's an idiot…
VICTIM: Un-huh…
PHONECUFFER: But really he can be hilarious, like when…
VICTIM: (thinks "I have a paper to work on and he's talking about the crappiest move that was ever made.")

38 minutes later

PHONECUFFER: But then I realized that if you stand eight feet away, you get the most accuracy.
VICTIM: That's cool, but I really need to work on that paper.

22 minutes later

PHONECUFFER: So he just stared off into space and was like "Whoa!".
VICTIM: (monotone) That's weird. (thinks "I've told him about the paper six times and he's still phonecuffing me!")
