Get the heard of cowsmug. Refers to an occasion where you are accompanying your buddy on a warm-weather stroll and he has asked you to temporarily carry his floppy sun-hat, and then during your shared conversation, you voice a strong and/or important statement that carries a significant amount of "weight" to it; you therefore "drive home" your point by dramatically/flourishingly squashing your friend's hat back onto his head.
Using hat-plop emphasis to drive home your point is not intended to be offensive or demeaning in the least, of course, but it must be performed appropriately/diplomatically in order to avoid your seeming arrogant or insulting. One of the best ways to accomplish this is to smile and raise your eyebrows somewhat as you carry out this maneuver; extra credit if you also make a loud humorous spluttering sound with your tongue/lips --- like imitating the long raspy passing of gas --- as you do so, ensuring that the person knows that you have merely playful/harmless intentions in your actions.

Get the I feel like royalteamug. Sometimes you can even hire a sorrowgate to **pretend** to feel "down in the mouth" instead of your having to fake it on your own, like at the funeral of someone who was always a major a**h**e to you, and so you're actually GLAD to finally be rid of him in your life.

Get the sorrowgatemug. A light-to-moderate "assistance-push" that you give someone (or something that he's presently attempting to move) to enable him to more-easily complete some action or task that he's currently engaged in.
Two of my buddies had stopped to give me a ride in their pickup truck, and the passenger had scooched over towards the driver as far as he could; the problem was that because of the gearshift and large transmission-hump, he was unable to brace his feet against the floor in front of him to maneuver himself over sufficiently to make enough room on the seat for me; I therefore gave him a supplemental nudge with my hip to slide him over the rest of the way so that I could plop down and shut the door.

Some law firms claim to be really tough on the opposition ("Tell them YOU MEAN BUSINESS!") and thus can better guarantee your succeeding in legal matters that are handled though them, but we all know that hard-nosed persuasiveness only goes so far to win cases, especially if the other side has hired an attyranny.
