Waving the Bloody Shirt

In the history of the United States, "waving the bloody shirt" refers to the practice of politicians referencing the blood of martyrs or heroes to criticize opponents.

In American history, the phrase gained popularity with a factitious incident in which Benjamin Franklin Butler of Massachusetts, when making a speech on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives, allegedly held up a shirt stained with the blood of a carpetbagger whipped by the Ku Klux Klan. (While Butler did give a speech condemning the Klan, he never waved anyone's bloody shirt.)
Dude A - "I got a five on my APUSH exam!"

Dude B - "Dude, quit waving the bloody shirt."

Dude A - "No wonder you got a one, you're an idiot."

11$ Meal

If you live in Connecticut, Florida, Idaho, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Vermont, or Washington DC (all states/districts with 6% sales tax), then there is a meal that you can order at McDonald's that is exactly 11$ with tax.

This meal is:
4 McDoubles
2 Medium Fries
2 Small Drinks

The meal feeds two people, or one really hungry person who needs two drinks for some reason.

The McDoubles and Small Drinks may be switched with another Dollar Menu item.
Minority: "Welcome to McDonald's, how may I help you?"

You: "I'll have the 11$ Meal for my friend and me."

Minority: "What are you talking about?"

You: "I'll have four McDoubles, two Medium Fries, and two Small Drinks."

Minority: "Sure thing.."

Dropping the D

When a guitarist drops the low E string down to a D, usually implying he's about to look like an ass playing power chords.

This, however, excludes D Standard tuning, where the guitarist will also drop the B string to an A, and the top E string to a D as well.
Judgmental Person A - "Hey, this guy sucks at guitar. But let's stay and watch anyways for the fun of it."

Judgmental Person B - "I know dude right?"

Judgmental Person C - "Oh damn, he's dropping the D. I can't wait to see this."
