Upper Respitory Johnson

When a guy grabs a girl (or guy), spins him/her upside down and then shoves his penis inside his/her mouth so quickly, aggressively, and deeply, that she has difficulty breathing and eventually develops an upper respitory problem. This is very unsafe, and has sometimes resulted in death. To upper respitory johnson someone is to be spun upside down and develop an upper respitory condition, as described above. Only for the most hardcore of us.

Wow, Frank just upper respitory johnson'd that guy!

respiration

Essential life process where oxygen reacts with glucose from the food that you eat to provide your body with energy. The two by-products of this process are carbon dioxide, which is exhaled along with the rest of the harmless gases that entered your lungs but did not diffuse into your blood, and water.

Not to be confused with breathing, which is how the oxygen enters the body.

If you cannot breathe, oxygen cannot enter your lungs and therefore cannot diffuse into your blood. With no oxygen your cells cannot respire and will therefore die.

Respiration:

Oxygen + Glucose -> Energy + Carbon Dioxide + Water

respiratory therapy (RT)

A smoking break; smoke break; to smoke.

A phrase used to ask someone if they wanna go for a smoking break with you (in a cooler way).

Used to combat the notion that smoking breaks are 100% negative occasions, since the respiratory therapy they offer is often more than 100% beneficial to the recipient.

Andy: "Hey Chris, RT?"

Chris: "Sure, I'm totally down for some respiratory therapy right now."

Tom: "You two do realize the lung cancer risks right?"

Andy: "Are you kidding me? Respiratory therapy (RT) is totally good for you."

Chris: "Yup RT'ing 2-3 times a day actually improves your mental health and sharpness."
