permission to blow tubes

Nautical. Requesting permission to blow hot steam on the tubes in a naval superheated boiler. Often thought to refer to a sailor by the name of Tubes, but this is not correct. The permission is needed because there will be a release of some smoke when tubes are blown.

Engineering Officer: Request permission to blow tubes, sir.
Officer of the Deck: Permission granted.

The Permission

It's the same thing as "The Shocker", only the girl you are giving it to must know that you are going to do it and still allow you to follow through with it. It's "The Shocker" without the shock.

Me and my girlfriend had the talk last night and I think she's going to let me give her the permission tonight.

Permission To Kill

A Roleplaying rule where you must have permission to kill someone. It's a common rule that Fail-roleplayers somehow don't know exist.
It's quite simple, yet sometime complicated, you have to both imagine a scenario where the person you wish to kill both dies, and lives.
To ask someone you just say Permission to kill? or PTK?.

Example 1:
Person 1: |:| I lowered my pistol to aim at your head, then I ready my finger on the trigger. Permission To Kill? |:|
Person 2: Yes.
Person 1: |:| I pull the trigger back. A gunshot echoed through the empty building. |:|
Person 2: |:| As he laid there with a bleeding hole in his head. This would be the end of his story. |:|

Example 2:
Person 1: |:| I lowered my pistol to aim at your head, then I ready my finger on the trigger. Permission To Kill? |:|
Person 2: No.
Person 1: |:| After a few moments of hesitation, he lowered his pistol. |:|
"Get out of here, I don't want to see you again. Is that clear?"
Person 2: "Y-yes! I-I won't come back anymore!"
Person 1: "Good. Now get."
