gimme a second

A commonly used phrase uttered by young children, usually as a response to a parent's request.

Can be very misleading, as the aforementioned second may be upwards of 2 hours long.
"Timmy, you said you'd take out the trash an hour ago."
"gimme a second!"
(several hours later)
"Timmy, it's been longer than a second."
"gimme a second!"

I second that.

a phrasal sentence that means, when taken literally, “I echo that statement of yours.”, “I echo your above statement.”; “I agree with you 100%ly.”; or simply “Ditto.”. See also "I second that emotion".

Phrase used frequently on message boards (more so than in person) by someone usually immediately after someone-else stated something with which the other person agreed.
Note that the word ‘second’ is being used as a verb in this sense, and is derived from ‘2nd’(as opposed to the length of time).
