Phrase used to describe the point in a race when an individual or team give up for no obvious reason. More often than not to be found a little past the halfway point and is not dependant on the length of the overall course. It is used frequently in conjunction with the term Puma.
They may be in the lead at the moment, but with the Puma onboard they'll hit the Brown Barrier just past the half way mark.

Get the Brown Barrier mug.A tiny Californian town in the middle of bumfuck nowhere that, for the springtime when the flowers bloom, is a tourist location. The climate is hot as balls, reaching temperatures of over 120 degrees fahrenheit. The town is populated primarily by old, alcoholic boomers who've pissed away all their dreams and potential and have come there to gain 200 pounds and rot. If Honey Boo Boo's mother's pussy stench was a town, that town would be Borrego Springs.
When the tourists are gone, Borrego Springs is a giant, run-down retirement home with nobody to watch the residents.

Get the borritos mug.A typically sarcastic or apathetic exclamation made when a miscalculation or mistake has been made; most often, this applies when an individual has missed some cue to stop, thus creating a useless or bothersome excess.
Generally, it applies to any benign mishap. But in the ideal context, it deals with "going overboard" with a task, often completing something that should have been stopped long ago; also applies to an overestimation of needs, thus creating or getting much more of an item than is needed.
The origin of this phrase is from a variety of Cap'n Crunch cereal: The "Oops All Berries!" branding featured no rectangular yellow cereal pieces, only the round multicolored "berries" as introduced in Crunch Berries.
Widely regarded as the authority on Captain Crunch consumption, Curtis Cartwright explains the phrase:
"What oops? You put ALL BERRIES n***a? WHAT? Like, somebody just hit the button, was like, Oops, N***a, all berries! F**k it! Put that s**t on the shelves!"
Evident in Cartwright's interpretation, there is also an sense that in saying the phrase, it is a suggestion that the use of the now excessive something has become appropriate. It's already been made or done, so the idea of using the excess anyway is implied in the uttering of, "Oops, all berries..."
If the mistake is humorous or absurd, then the exclamation can be accompanied by throwing one's hands up in an exaggerated shrug and an amused expression of sarcastic confusion.
