Knocked it up a notch 

When someone lists reasons why they hate you, then change the running order. For example, move reason #3 to reason #1.
Bender: So it's settled! Elzar will teach me to cook.
Elzar: Absolutely not.
Bender: Aw, come on, I watch your show. You owe me!
Elzar: I owe you nothing. For starters your antenna's in my crotch, also I hate you, and finally, you can't cook for squat.
Bender: (he cries) What was the first one again?
Elzar: I hate you.
Bender: I thought that was the number two.
Elzar: I knocked it up a notch! BAM!!

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
