don't tread on me

famously defiant motto of colonel christopher gadsden, self-described illustrious soldier, statesman and slave owner of 18th century lore. in reference to the anyone whose identical motives conflicted with gadsden achieving his ends, specifically the british in the person of king george III, this bloated fraud invoked the venomous viper as a depiction of same. lately reprised by the great gullible mass of what's left of the working classes in impotent complaint of their own tragic, irredeemable peonage. in current terms "don't tread on me" translates to "retread" and might as well show the imprint of bandag.

King Kong ain't got SHIT on me

A tongue-in-cheek claim that you are bigger than a Russian mob syndicate.
After Theo told his neighborhood friends "King Kong ain't got SHIT on me," he was shot by a hit man hired by the Russian mob. Ironically enough the hit man was King Kong. Theo was deaf.

go all "family man" on me

Snortingly-sarcastic term for a shyster's/villain's huffily acting like he's a conscientious peaceable virtuous caring-about-fellow-humans person who shouldn't be suspected or criticized, when of course in reality he's just a self-centered a**h**e who's totally undeserving of any praise or respect.
A prime example of someone's deciding to use this shameless tactic would be in "The Untouchables" with Kevin Costner --- when Elliot Ness angrily confronts Al Capone on the stairway and accuses him of murdering people and otherwise being a horrid crook, Capone indignantly lashes out right back at Ness for his "talking that way in front of Capone's son"... Ness's feelings would therefore be something like, Capone decided to go all "family man" on me --- how infuriatingly disgusting!

Most people think this phrase originated from the movie training day. However it really originated from Dave Chappelle: True Hollywood stories- Rick James
