Austin Powers-ing

An extremely frustrating situation in which a vehicle is boxed-in so tightly that its driver becomes stuck perpetually switching between forward and reverse to set it free.

Stems from the pained efforts of the eponymous Austin Powers in the movie "International Man of Mystery".
Boss: "What sort of time do you call this, you left for your lunch break almost two weeks ago"

Worker: "I'm sorry sir I got stuck Austin Powers-ing in the Tesco car park; I've been hit with 17 different fines and now they're repossessing my house"

Boss: "Lmao damn son"

Power walking

An excellent cardiovascular exercise. Many people probably think that it's not so effective because it's not running and 'just walking', when really it can actually be just as good for weight loss as jogging.
Also, power walking is not simply walking at a faster pace. That's brisk walking. Power walking is walking at a fast pace (probably often even faster than brisk walking) with an arm swing.
Joe: Hey Alex, I'm going to be power walking a marathon tomorrow!
Alex: Ok, that's impressive, I guess.
Joe: Not just walking though. Power walking!
Alex: How hard can power walking a marathon be? You're just walking at a faster pace.

power tower

A way to define multiple exponents stacked onto each other. Used in many ways:

To overcomplicate tetration notation for no good reason in particular
To express tetration in a broader sense. If the number is ³5 (scary isn't it), it's just 5⁵(⁵), or even better, 5³¹²⁵, NOT 5²⁵
To scare calculus students into submission with e^x derivatives, e.g. e^e^e^e^3x²
To have just a little bit of fun when writing a weird and complex exponentiation function

Also used to troll people when asked how to use exponents, i.e. calling them a dumbass without directly saying it to them
"The calc test is gonna have a power tower on it!"

"This is why I should've taken stats."
