dilly dally shilly shally

An expression used to chastize someone who is wasting time, focusing on unimportant things, procratinating, or otherwise being an emo blond-haired sissy boy.

NOTE: In Square Enix straight-to-DVD GC movie sequel to Final Fantasy VII, Advent Children, dilly dally shilly shally is used as the translation to "Zuru zuru zuru zuru" in the japanese version... WTF

Dafyls

An acronym for 'Didn't Ask For Your Life Story". Can also be used as a verb. Initially started as a joke at work between a bunch of auditors for whenever someone goes on a rant about something, a simple 'dafyls' should usually shut them up.
Man, I just asked her for the time and she dafyls'd me.

Friend: How did the word Dafyls originate?
Hubert: Well, it all started at work, where this one time...
Friend: Dafyls!

Bo Dallas

This is when you are beating off in the shower but want it to all go down the drain so you don't have to clean or get found out so you get down on one knee. This looks like the 'Thinker' pose done by pro wrestler Bo Dallas before his matches.
I was staying in a hotel room with another couple but had to relieve myself. So I had to 'Bo Dallas' in the shower so they wouldn't be creeped out.
