This was a phrase frequently heard on the "ride home" at radio station WPGC in Washington, DC. DJ Celo, the Super Funk Regulator would say this to callers that report their current location, their response would be "thanks for letting a brother/sister roll."
** Morning DJ, Elliot Segal (Elliot in the Morning show) simply used the phrase as sattire - he didn't coin the the phrase at all. He also often joked on air in a tongue-in-cheek manner that many of his listeners were not the most cultured people (i.e. failure to realize that the phrase in question came from a black radio station!)

"Where you at right now?" asked the DJ.
"I'm on Benning Road, heading home from work."
"Who you goin' to see?"
"My son Darius," said the woman giggling, obviously hyped to be on the radio and live. "He's ten years old."
"You have a good one," said the DJ. "Thanks for rolling with a brother."
"Thanks for lettin' a sister roll."
Strange smiled. He did love D.C. (George Pelecanos, Soul Circus, 2003)

Get the thanks for rolling with a brother mug.Originating from a dumbshit comment posted by stupid fucking Clyde on the Facebook page "DADoEM", "Getting the ball rolling" is the action of liking your own status/comment in order to take advantage of the natural, learned psycological reaction of avid social media users to "like" a post if there are already existing likes present.
"Wow, my comment has no likes just yet...hrmmm, time to get the ball rolling, fam"
"Remember guys
Get that ball rolling!!

Get the rolling mug.the social act of peer-pressuring someone (a 'douchebag', the term from which 'bag'-rolling originates) with low self esteem into throwing themselves down a hill. This usually results in moderate injury to the victim, for the entertainment of their peers. Usually occurs in an outdoor environment, although bag-rolling has been known to occur on indoor ski-slopes and downwards escalators, amongst others. the victim partakes in the hope that their own social status will be increased, although in most cases they are turned into a source of open mockery.
"mate, i bloody love bag-rolling, i just got this douchebag to bag-roll in the park, what a twat!"

Get the bag-rolling mug.When stupid-ass white trash people turn the injection pump up on rickety-ass broken down 12V Cummins-powered Dodges and subsequently install 5" smokestacks in the bed of said Dodge. Then said WT decides to post youtube videos of their truck blanketing neighborhoods with black diesel soot.
Regardless of engine technology progressing to the point of nearly eliminating black smoke and producing nearly double the power of modded mechanically-injected diesel engine in stock form, a "Coal Rollin'" owner will respond with a not-so-clever response of "I'd rather be Cummin than Strokin." Referring to his belief that his Cummins engine is better than International's Powerstroke engine series found in Ford trucks. Because Isuzu's Duramax engien found in GM-branded trucks cannot be directly correlated to any phallic self-gratification, they are typically ignored. See Below for why
This particular stereotype is the progression of the IROC Camaro owner in the 1990s and the lowered Civic Hatchback owner in the early 2000s. They can be identified by their love of Nickelback, lack of personal hygiene, closeted homosexuality and morbid obesity. A majority of these owners reside in Florida, this species also can be found in eastern Texas, Alabama, Georgia, and California's central valley.
