A phrase that can be used two different ways. You can use it to tell some to be laid back about something. Or it can be a way of saying hunker down and get it done.

fahyuh r POS-uh m
Noun
A man, or someone claiming to be a man, who suggests that he and other men should gather and have an outdoor fire (i.e., in a fire pit or outdoor fireplace) and consume alcoholic beverages. After receiving agreement from the group and prior to the fire being lit, the fire possum ceases communicating with the group. Thus he will play possum prior to the lighting of the fire and kills the event.
A fire possum will often be heard claiming the next day “I no gay?!” Closely related to an Irish Goodbye and clairavoidance.

Ernie sent up a flare that we should come over for some whiskey and fire, but as usual, he turned into a fire possum and no fun was had...

Rat possum
First you take the rat then add a posom, then it becomes really awesome.
Rat possom! (Ooh-ooh)

A word which means the same as 'awesome', except that by adding 'possum' at the end it sounds waaaay more awesome. Just because it rhymes. Contrary to its name, it has nothing to do with possums at all, and is just there to make it sound more interesting e.g. Liar liar, pants on fire.

Slang for "opossum stomp".
Wrestling move in which victim is held upside down by the ankles and smashed violently, headfirst, into the ground.
This is a completely justifiable and necessary recourse in the event that one's opponent is "playing opossum", or just being a bitch.

"Boy, I'm gonna' possum stomp your head into your ass," laughed the friendly neighborhood policeman.
