epic maneuver
An unintended action that can either result in 1. great success or 2. colossal failure. Made popular by YTMND, it's a fad that is pretty much dead. Most epic maneuvers result in failure, and you'll be remembered for such actions.
Examples of an epic maneuver:
1. You're bowling and you throw the ball, but it results in a 7-10 split. On the next ball, through some miracle, you throw it and you manage to knock both pins over.
2. Let's say you're the QB in a football game. After the snap, when you're poised to throw, your fingers lose grip of the ball and it results in a fumble, which is recovered by the opposing team.

alert the internet
There are a few situations where one could yell this phrase, but the main thing is to convey sarcasm. For example if someone you know says something that seems utterly useless in a tone where they're trying to sound like it's the news of the year (and it really isn't), then you'd say this phrase in reply. See alert the media.

piledriver
1. A wrestling move where the aggressor takes the victim and flips him upside down, at which point he proceeds to jump up and then drive the victim's head into the ground, intending to cause spinal damage. This move is what caused Stone Cold Steve Austin to take a leave from wrestling for an extended period of time.
2. A sexual position where the woman is standing on her head and the male proceeds to take her legs, spread them apart, and penetrate (as he's standing up). This is rather tricky, as both parties need to have a good sense of balance.
3. A machine that drives piles (those wooden things you see at the beach sometimes) into the ground. This is actually where the wrestling move got its name. It uses a heavy weight to hammer the pile into the ground.

deja vu
The feeling that you are doing something that you've already done before. Literal translation "already seen" (from French, deja 'already', vu 'seen'). Apparently it's due to a blip in your brain process which gives you the illusion that you've been somewhere/done something before, and technically, you have - a fraction of a second ago.
However, a common misinterpretation of deja vu is a repeat of a certain event. For example, in an episode of Garfield and Friends (US Acres) Orson perpetually removes the same book (Deja vu: the feeling that you are doing something that you've done before) from a box of books over and over again. This is NOT deja vu; rather, it's an event that doesn't have a forseeable end: an infinite loop, if you will.
If you walk into a room and immediately get the feeling that you've been there before, then that is a case of deja vu.
