Excuse me, while I kiss the sky

A lyric/quote from Jimi Hendrix's popular song, Purple haze. What it means? That he was high. Not just him, universally too.
"Excuse me, while I kiss the sky."

PURPLE HAZE lyrics, from the album 'Are You Experienced?' (released in the UK on May 12, 1967)

Purple haze all in my brain
Lately things don't seem the same
Actin' funny but I don't know why
'Scuse me while I kiss the sky

Purple haze all around
Don't know if I'm comin' up or down
Am I happy or in misery?
Whatever it is, that girl put a spell on me

Help me
Help me
Oh I don't know

Yeah!
Purple haze was all in my eyes
Don't know if it's day or night
You've got me blowin', blowin' my mind
Is it tomorrow or just the end of time?

Who knows?
Help me
Yeah
Come on now
Tell me
Tell me

Etc.

Whip'n Excuses

When someone is such a sore loser, they start whipping out one excuse after another. Sadly, one excuse barely ends before the next one begins.
"That wasn't fair! Something's wrong with my controller! You're playing with the character I wanted!"

"Ok, I get it! You don't need to keep Whip'n Excuses."

Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally

In school it means PEMDAS which is the order of operations:

Parentheses
Exponent
Multiplication

Division
Addition
Subtraction

When solving an algebraic equation, you'd use PEMDAS to help you figure out which part of the equation to calculate first, second, third, etc.

Could also refer to your aunt named Sally who lacks self control, so please, excuse her.
Teacher: "Alright, kids! Today we're going to learn PEMDAS. That means please excuse my dear aunt sally."

Kid: "What the fuck, man? You guys put letters into math and now we're writing sentences? I was in English last block. Fuck school."

excuse me bro

what you say at a club or bar to a puffed out chested guy when you need to get through to get to the bar, which is why you are REALLY at the bar cuz you go to the bar to get DRUNK not to pick up gold diggers. ANYWAY- when you need to convey to a potentially trouble causing trendy striped shirt guy that you want to get through in a very non confrentational "im being polite to you so you cant get mad at me" way.. you say "excuse me bro" and they let you through and they have no option but to be polite back. its bar/club ediqette. everyone knows that and if you dont. learn it.
*walking through the bar* 'excuse me bro'- no prob man go ahead. thanks bro.
