Do the face

Sometimes when sleeping you may experience a moment of intense sadness and have it manifest in sobbing. You may ask your partner to do the face so that you can better understand the moment in question. This can help you find a moment of catharsis that would better help you overcome whatever past trauma you may have been reliving.

Babe, I was crying in my sleep last night? Can you do the face?

Doing the assignment

When someone has "done the assignment", they have completed a task to a level exceeding expectations. Doing the assignment correctly is the equivalent to success in that field.

Doing the assignment:
"Ayo it's insane how many different roles Zendaya can play in her movies, she really gets the assignments done"

2. "That food Gordon Ramsay just cooked looks fireeee, he really did the assignment"

Doing a Diane

When you get above 90% on a test because you memorised the mark scheme, but you tell everyone you never saw it.

Doing a Diane...
Diane : "Oh my god, I got 92%!"
Everyone in the class: "Shut up Diane, you memorised the mark scheme..."
Diane : "No I didn't! I swear!"
*she memorised the mark scheme because she is a dumb cunt*
