tanking

comes from mmorpgs, where you would have a healer in your party and a person with high defense. (i.e. meat sack-o-shield warriors). the warrior rush an opponent and the monk would do their best to keep the warrior alive with healing and stat bonuses. then, the other members could
a)fight and hit hard
b)run away like scared little girls

so, in essence, it is a big distraction to open opportunites for attack or to run away, like a sacrifice but to keepp it alive.
Chaos Deity had the best plan to win by tanking the enemy patrol and having his team run away.

Aww Thanks

Said by a straight single female to a straight single male friend, in the hopes of reminding him to immediately get back into the confines of the friend zone, and to never attempt to escape from it again.
“You’re one of the most intelligent and beautiful women I’ve ever met in my life. Women like you are truly special.”

“Aww Thanks”

World of Tanks

A Free-to-Play (and not Pay-to-Win) MMO focused around... well, tanks. Red Orchestra meets World of Warcraft meets Battlefield 1942, in other words. Infamous for its bias towards Russian tanks, but otherwise a very original take on the Genre. Also has a large volume of Paper Panzers that didn't actually make production in real life. AKA "WoT"
World of Tanks proves to us that a nice 105mm round is way better than any greatsword.

Think Tank

Conference room that is used more often to have sex in than actually come up with ideas for the company.
Guy#1: Wow i can't believe Jason choked in the Think Tank.

Guy#2: Wrong time to let loose a stinky fart.

Tankie

Apologists for some of humanity's most brutal regimes, including (but not limited to) the Soviet Union, China, and North Korea.

Most Tankies are hardcore Stalinists who want a totalitarian Stalinist regime established in their home country.

Tankies claim be to be left-wing politically and are (rightfully) shunned by other left-wing groups (Progressives, Socialists, Social Democrats, Anarchists, etc) due to their love of dictators.
That guy's a Tankie. He wants to replace the government with a Stalinist dictatorship and build gulags.

five cougars thanks

The catch-cry to any woman with large breasts, or more amusingly, any man with large man boobs.

This catchcry is based upon the advertisement for Cougar Bourbon:
Man in bar queue: (VO, trying to remember the order he is making) Two gin and tonics, two vodkas, and a scotch. Two gin and tonics, two vodkas, and a scotch. Two gin and tonics, two vodkas, and a scotch. (He reaches the front of the queue, passing a confused-looking man with bourbon and cokes. He sees the bartender, a gorgeous, buxom blonde.)
Bartender: Yes?
Man in bar queue: Five Cougars thanks. (We see "Cougar Bourbon" is emblazoned upon the bartender's singlet top; the man blinks, confused.)
(Yelled at a fat cricketer who comes on to bat) Five cougars thanks!
