Tune in but Tune out

Phrase: When you, someone else, or even a group of people listen to a conversation (most often it's an argument or fight) between others to get all the juicy details, but don't want those who are having the conversation to know that you're listening to them, tell your fellow listeners to do this. Its primary use is to prevent getting yourself or others involved in the confrontation, and allows you to listen for the details.
Guy 1: Hey, the boss and the new guy are having an argument! Sounds like he won't be here much longer!

Guy 2: Tune in but Tune out, man! Get the details but don't get involved!

Shaolin 42 fake-out

The Shaolin 42 fake out (Commonly called the Nerve strike attack) is a pressure point tackling move that will paralyze the victim and send them to a 20 year knock-out blocking their chi. Its non lethal however once used on the victim they will permanently be able to wishtand it twice. In addidtion to that defect, the victim's endurance could potentionally become greater or significantly weaker.

The only known documentary of the Shaolin 42 fake-out ever being used was by Master Oogway preventing Tai Lung from getting the dragon scroll. After performing the moves necessary Tai Lung immediately dropped to the ground knocked out cold, seemingly dead. Tai Lung was then sent to Chorh-Gom prison who later learned the move and after escaping the prison used it on the Furious Five.

Disclaimer: Most of this information isn't canon and mostly a joke around my family.
In order to learn the Shaolin 42 fake-out you must become a Shaolin, 45th chamber of the 34d dynasty.

Brown out

A brown out is when use hard drugs enter a phase between being safe stable and not yet quite entering "passing out/ falling out" modes."Falling out" states include nodding out, falling asleep, so called asleep n beginning to die as lowered respiratory induces hypoxia, during a brown out may be awake conscious, so aware of breathing but may experience "kind of fluid floaty states" where blurs of vision, sense of "Idk maybe not slapped out of your carcass enuf to onset death, but have challenged to a specific middle point your spirit is debating it thus it sort of "stretchs" or "peeksabout". During which experience this "not quite blurs vision, but stars or other unexplainable changes to visuals occur. May include, onset of sleepiness. Hypothetically you just banged an speed inducing substance like cocaine soft or hard or possibly methamphetamine or other amphetamines. Paradoxically although the substance "speeding you" due to the circular system and heart being overwhelmed maybe this causes a lightness sensation. Because your riding a thin line between having a good time and dying bro. Brownouts are moments "feel a little stupider. Not quite handicapped, but intellectually critical capacity "think as you do atypically" has "wound down". Not quite the "dumb" feeling other drugs or getting "shit slizzered" but like your mind is lighter. Possibly due to the "soul stretchy bit".
