engine run on

The continual oozing of fecal matter after a bowel movement. Often leaves an oily residue in ones under garments.

The results of an overly relaxed or impaired sphincter.
Dr. Gus had engine run on so may patient complaints were filed about having been on the receiving end of the stench.

On the bomb-run

To be conveniently engaged in doing something of grave importance at the moment when another duty calls, so that you have the perfect excuse not to deal with the latter duty. Especially pertinent when dealing with the latter duty may well lead to loss of face/humiliation/failure on your part, but also when the latter duty is merely something that for whatever reason you just do not want to have to deal with.

When one is 'on the bomb-run' they have a totally legitimate excuse.

The phrase relates to the scene in the WWII film Memphis Belle when the pilot’s flask of tomato soup explodes during a flak attack and splatters its contents all over the pilot, the co-pilot and the surrounding cockpit. Mistaking the tomato soup for blood, the duo and top turret gunner are convinced that someone has been hit, so they call the bombardier up to check them out, as they all believe him to be a medical doctor. However, the bombardier has been over exaggerating as he actually only attended two weeks of medical school prior to enlisting, therefore having to deal with any casualties would immediately highlight his incompetence as a medic and loss of face/humiliation would ensue. Thus, the bombardier replies nervously and dismissively ‘Hey, I’m on the bomb-run!’ He is indeed on the bomb-run and therefore has the perfect excuse not to go up-front and play doctor.
1) Guy A: ‘Hey, dude. Can you demonstrate your 1000 consecutive push-ups with perfect form now?’
Dude (trying to finish his assignment for tomorrow, pointing at the pile of papers and text books surrounding him): ‘Hey, I’m on the bomb-run!’

2) Guy A: ‘Hey, dude. There’s that celtic princess. Go tell her how you feel, man!’
Dude (dashing to submit that assignment, deadline in 2 minutes): ‘Hey, I’m on the bomb-run!’

3) Guy A: ‘Hey, dude. The Jehovah’s witnesses are at the door. Can you get it?’
Dude (pulls fully-loaded 6’x6’ bookshelf over on top of himself and lies underneath, desperately trying to prevent the immense weight from crushing him): ‘Hey, I’m on the bomb-run!’

Phone running

Working out with a remote partner while on the phone with each other for encouragement and support. Just like going running together in person except you're in different locations so can only connect by phone but can still be together. Made substantially easier with earbuds and unlimited long-distance calling.
Tricia is out of town so we went phone running for 45 minutes this morning.

Run the bath

When something of greatness is about to happen and you’re in the preparation phase for that moment in time. Like running a bath you know what comes next is good.

Leak & Run

The act of taking a leak (urinating) then not washing your hands and just leaving.
Mostly performed by people in airports who are in a hurry to catch a flight. Or those who are just to lazy to wash their hands.

(Both men and women can perform a Leak & Run)
Dude #1: Dude, that guy jus took a piss and didn't wash his hands.
Dude #2: Man, that's nasty, he jus did a leak & run.
Dude #1: Must've been late to his flight.
