get it

A phrase used to urge someone/something on in a joking, mildly sarcastic manner. The implication is that what is being attempted is a trivial challenge, an obvious or already chosen course of action, or that the person is excessively frantic or exerting too much effort relative to the task. When spoken at an animal or inanimate object, the implication is an expectation of something about to occur, usually humorous to observe. The phrase is always spoken with "get" in a low tone and "it" with raising tone and volume, sometimes drawn out.
