The Crow-Syndrome 

An odd phenomenon that describes the way a lad always tend to end in bed with same girl again and again, even though he does not want to. The syndrome is typically activated when a lad needs a consolation bang.
"What up bro, did you pull Clara?"

"Nah fuck man, I woke up in Sophie's bed again"

"Oh shit, you are totally hit by The Crow-Syndrome geezer"

ate the crow 

Developing a very painful stomach ache after ingesting something you don't typically eat. Refers to the episode of Always Sunny in Philadelphia when Frank is stranded in the woods, hungry and fatigued, and decides to eat a decaying crow. Later he wakes up in the middle of the night groaning of stomach pains. When Dennis and Dee ask what's wrong Frank replies "I ate the crow".
Dude, I ate the crow, that Afghan shit we ate fucked my stomach up.

away the Crow Road 

Old Scots expression for dead.

Also from the Iain Banks book/BBC miniseries "The Crow Road"
Aye, Fergus is away the Crow Road.

stone the crow 

finally found the damn definition:
it is an expression referring to an outlandish event (per perspective).
Acceptable uses:
"I can't believe that ol Rock bought a new Cadillac - might as well stone the crow."

"Ol Rock said 'fuck off' to his boss and up and quit... can't say I'd ever stone that crow."

"A bout of deep depression.
Can't seem to move it forward.
My lying eyes lie awake.
Not sure what I am after.
I never died before.
Can't help what happened yesterday.
I never stoned the crow, no.
Flip through endless stories.
A life of hand-written pain.
No one can share this hurt that is mine, mine, mine.
I never died before.
Can't be what happened yesterday.
I shouldn't stone the crow, no.
Ride on!
Same old city, same old tale.
No matter how I try,
No matter what I say,
I'm blamed, I'm shamed,
I'm judged unfairly.
So now I've died before.
It feels as bad as yesterday.
I never stoned the crow, no.
You too have died before.
I fought as hard as yesterday
I never stoned the crow, stoned the crow, no, no.
-Down, "Stone the Crow", from NOLA"
