...And don't call me shirley

Famous line from the comedy movie "Airplane!". Used when someone uses the word "Surely" in their sentence. "Surely" sounds like "Shirley" when spoken, and therefore making sound as though your name is Shirley, or talking to someone called Shirley.

"Surely you can't be serious?"
"I am serious...And don't call me Shirley."

emcee call

a writer of rhymes
a boxer of beats
a metaphysical pit bull livin in a kennel with some potty trained dogmas

...

Human 1: is that the emcee they call 'CALL'?
Human 2: nah, son... that's a CALLogram
Human 1: say huh?
Human 2: it's a 3-D rendering of the emcee call... it's for our protection... no mortal has ever looked CALL in the eyes and survived to tell the tale

the call of the void

That voice in your head telling you to do what you shouldn't do, or what it would horrify you to do. Poe called it the "Imp of the Perverse". Freud called it the "Death Drive". It often seems sadistic or suicidal.
Being on top of a building and having the urge to jump.
Getting cut off on the highway and thinking about ramming the car in front of you.
Walking down the street with someone you like and thinking about shoving them into traffic.
Probably makes you feel guilty or insane, since a "normal" person wouldn't have these urges. It happens to almost everyone.

Every time I stand in front of a high window, I hear the call of the void. I could so easily break the window and dive out. It would be so peaceful once I landed and died.

Then I shake my head to try to get rid of the thought and move on. The thought doesn't go away, but I don't jump.

Doobie call

A late night summons -- often made via telephone -- to arrange for company to smoke a doobie; a meeting arranged for the purpose of smoking up.

Eddie always says yes to my Doobie calls.

Hit me in the curry and call me masala

This is a word that makes no sense. It is how Asian people confuse their enemies in a fight. E.g. Hey you, don't punch me in the face. Just Hit me in the curry and call me masala. Whilst their enemy is confused the Asian makes a run for it. This is a funny and confusing phrase because it makes no sense.

E.g. Bro allow me, just Hit me in the curry and call me masala.

social call

It’s a phrase used by Micah Bell in red dead redemption 2. In his case, it means to go and kill someone you know or knew personally. In normal human terms, and not snake terms, it means to go and visit a friend purely just to visit them and enjoy their company. Only, Micah doesn’t have friends so it is simply murder for him.

I gotta go make a social call. This bastard has always been a thorn in my side. Better tie up some loose ends.
