crossfit pull-up

a meritless and fraudulent set(s)/repetitions of pronated pull-ups performed by exploiting the momentum gained through kipping cloaked as thoracic convulsions executed in an elliptical path on a standard, fixed, elevated, horizontal pull-up bar; it is often erroneously promoted by CrossFitters as a "functional movement."

Those CrossFit clowns love to claim that their CrossFit pull-ups are better for strength as a (purportedly) "functional" exercise when, in fact, it doesn't even measure true upper body strength since it relies on momentum - unlike a true or traditional pronated pull-up which is, when executed properly, a superior closed kinetic chain compound movement and a more appropriate indicator of upper body strength since the primary muscles involved (i.e., latissimus dorsi, trapezius, and biceps brachii) are forced to work (concentrically and eccentrically) WITHOUT utilizing momentum.

come-upped

The proper past tense of the word "come up". This is more proper than "comed up" and head and shoulders better than "came up", which only sissies say. Its identical twin opposite is "come downed".

Some spelt without the hypen, though the hypen always exists when verbally spoken.

Recently, the topic come-upped that the earth's magnetic field could be subject to an anomaly, as a result of the aligning of the planets, something that occurs every 26,000 years.

stinking up the joint

To do something really badly. "To stink" means to do badly, "joint" here means a place. "Stink up the joint" is an exaggerated form meaning you "stink" so badly the whole place starts to stink, as if you've taken a shit.

"Oh no, Magnus! He blundered and lost his Queen! Okay, now I don't feel bad about my awful last game! Magnus is also stinking up the joint just like me today!" -- Hikaru Nakamura, on a stream in an online chess tournament, 13.11.2025
