An old-time expression interjected after one is on the receiving end of a harsh criticism. A fight will usually occur as a result.

Get the them's fightin' words mug.'fght ff yr dmns' comes from Brand New's (pre The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me) website, and it is obvious to anyone with half a brain that it is the words "fight off your demons" with the vowels removed.
Although the band have never given an explanation as to what it means to them personally, the entire paragraph, as it was presented on the website, read:
fght ff yr dmns. wrt sngs n yr slp. fight yr dmns your DEMONS. w lv y. w mss y. i lv y s mch tht t hrts m hd.
(Translation for anyone who cant be bothered to work it out - fight off your demons. write songs in your sleep. fight your demons, your demons. we love you. we miss you. i love you so much that it hurts my head)
It remains unclear, to me at least, why there is use of vowels in two of the words and none of the others, unless it is merely for added emphasis.
Also, the line "I love you so much that it hurts my head" occurs in the song Degausser, which is from the newest album 'The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me'.
Brand New must still be using the phrase "fight off your demons/fght ff yr dmns' as it is splashed across the t-shirts sold to promote the new album (which makes sense - there seems to be a lot of Biblical reference incorporated into this album, and if Jesse Lacey has the Devil and God raging inside him, then it goes hand in hand that he'd be fighting off his demons).

when I found out she was in the Jewish sorority I sneaked into her bathroom, used her razor, and then gave her Hitler's stealth fighter
by t money 69 July 16, 2010
Get the Hitler's Stealth Fighter mug.A backwards kicking (usually male) highly aggressive person. Usually known for their surprise attack personality and ability to induce strokes. Though there are no known weaknesses, it has been reported that biting the calves of a badass warrior fighter will buy time. While a normally forward walking mammal, the badass warrior fighter is known most for it's backwards kicking and the strength of such kicks. If has been up for debate for some time whether the strength of the backwards kicks are to blame for the strokes it's victims suffer... or if some other hidden mechanism causes them. One thing is for sure, while it may appear that the badass warrior fighter walks on 2 legs, it hides a 3rd leg. However, no one is quite sure where this 3rd leg is hidden, as discovery of said leg only occurred when a National Geographic team was cornered and brutally beaten with it.
Also reported have been instances of badass warrior fighters with glass eyes in their right ocular cavity. While the exact reason why only some males have this trait is unknown it can be assumed that it may have been caused by territorial battles with rival badass warrior fighters; possibly over territory, or a mate, or stroking rights. It is known however that due to this fairly uncommon disability if find yourself in a situation where you are cornered by a badass warrior fighter, if you can get them to face 30 degrees to your left you will essentially be in its blind spot.

Get the flightin mug.It all started on October 11, 1997 in the Tokyo Dome. This is by far the best of the best when it comes to mixed martial arts(MMA). It has the best fighter roster out of all the MMA events. For instance, it holds the greatest Heavy-Weight champion of all time in Fedor Emelianenko. It also has other great fighters like Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira, Josh Barnett, Mark Hunt, Wanderlei Silva, Mauricio Rua, Dan Henderson, Takanori Gomi. Also, Pride FC is great because it has rules that allow for true MMA action like kicks to the head and knees to the head on the ground.
