Pumped Up Kicks

A song made by Foster The People named after the luxury footwear. It's known for it's particularly upbeat yet unsettling musical composition/instrumental, and dark lyrics regarding a troubled youth named "Robert" who has fantasies of shooting up his school.

If you hear someone humming this song... particularly if they're white, named Eugene, have a bowl haircut, wear a trench coat/fedora/tie under shirt/etc., sport a neck beard, and/or if they have known association with the brony, weaboo, or furry fandom. It's best if you vacate the premises ASAP.

Ted: "I got my pumped up kicks"

Scott: "Then I saw Eugene in his trench coat, looking at furries on DeviantArt, and humming Pumped Up Kicks reach into his backpack."

pumped up kicks

The phrase 'pumped up kicks' basically means shoes that are very expensive. It could also be taken as it's non-literal term meaning 'the latest and greatest apparel items'.

Did you see John come by? He had some pumped up kicks! What a rich asshole.

I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine

This is a phrase that British actor/singer Murray Head says when he sees an array of nude Thai stripper girls in the video for the 1985 hit "One Night in Bangkok". That song is featured in the Cold War-themed romantic adventure musical "Chess", which was written by the men of ABBA and appeared on Broadway in 1988.

Rocky, Freddy and Frankie are watching cable TV in their dorm room. The 1983 movie "Class" is being shown on HBO. It stars Jacqueline Bisset as a Mrs. Robinson type. You get the idea. After this preppy-ass boarding school kid meets her in a bar they are later in a shopping mall, in an elevator all by themselves and they kanoodle and he goes down on her and there is some noise being made. Frankie is disgusted by what he sees. He says strongly "I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine!"
