Keep Trying Guy

When a man messes up and is dragged through the dirt, fired from his job, and ostracized by his friend group because his moral failing publicly humiliated his coworkers/buddies, tarnished their reputations, and resulted in a lack of brand alignment.
Friend #1: "Did you hear about that YouTube guy that tries stuff? He cheated on his wife and was fired by his friends, the other 'try dudes', who called his actions and inappropriate behavior a 'betrayal'."

Friend #2: "Well, if he's looking to make a comeback, he could just create his own YouTube channel and call it the 'Keep Trying Guy'. He can talk about his issues and what he's learned from his mistakes. Who knows, maybe people will stop villainizing him for being human..."
Friend #1: "Huh... The dude was a hypocrite, though. He cheated on his wife after calling himself the 'wife guy' of the group and building his brand around that..."
Friend #2: "Well, all men have their moments... Their 'Keep Trying Guy' moments..."

Keep Your Jaw On

"Keep your jaw on" is a phrase used when somebody is overwrought, overly shocked, or unnecessarily upset over a trivial matter. The expression was inspired by John Glubb, a WW1 soldier who had his jaw shot off but managed to have it reconstructed using surgery. The point of the phrase was, if even somebody who's reached a situation that low managed to fix their problems, you shouldn't be reacting so badly about a smaller issue.

Popularised in Northwest England's coastal towns, the phrase is often used as a less niche form of the phrase "don't get your knickers in a twist."
PERSON 1: “Oh my God, my life is over! My phone, my beautiful phone - it's been delayed in transit. I literally don't know what to do. What the Hell should I do?”

PERSON 2: “Jesus Christ, keep your jaw on. It'll clearly get here in the end - some people have real problems.”
