shut it down 

When someone is in the wrong, or someone " tries" you (makes you out to be stupid), it is time to shut them down. For instance, when someone tries to talk to your boyfriend/girlfriend then it's time to shut it down. Meaning, stopping the whole situation permanently.

Shut it Down 

A period of nothingness that is needed to recharge your batteries. Not answering phones, emails, texts, or doing anything that requires communication with anyone. It's "me" time on a more selfish level.
After multiple projects at work being thrown at her, endless requests from husband, and a schedule that would make anyone's heads spin, her friend, kindly gave her some advice one day,...after hearing her vent for an hour. Whit, I don't know what to do!! It's just getting too nuts,..I can't take it anymore....says Mindy. Girl, you just need to take a day, and just "Shut it Down"
