with the urgency of an emergency tampon

This is a phrase that indicates a very serious situation that is on a urgent timeline - it needs to be fixed NOW
As Ally jokingly posted a manipulated image of one of her friends appearing fatter than she was on the Gram, she recalled said friend had multiple embarrassing real images of her. So, with the urgency of an emergency tampon, she removed her post and then shared a flattering image of her friend, who was named Abby btw, and tagged it "Bad Bitch!"

Emergency Date Effect

The Emergency Date Effect, or EDE for short, is defined as the moment when a person in a school or similar institute has no date for a social event, such as Prom or Homecoming, so asks out someone who is of a lower social standing of theirs or who they know already has some form a crush on them as an insurance policy.
Guy 1: “Hey, did you hear Tom managed to get a date with Maria?”
Guy 2: “Yeah, but I heard she had no other options. They’re only going out because of the Emergency Date Effect”

Emergency Krulwich

A radio piece by esteemed NPR correspondent, Robert Krulwich, used to prevent dead air when something goes wrong.

Coined by NPR's Bryant Park Project:

"An emergency Krulwich is a radio piece, any radio piece, by (...) Robert Krulwich. Krulwiches are always fascinating, amazingly well-produced, thought-provoking, and...long.

Matt keeps our emergency Krulwiches locked in a secret bunker beneath BPP world headquarters. He's the only one with the code and the weighty responsibility of deciding when to deploy.

Let me make plain at this point that we don't only use our Krulwiches in emergency situations. Sometimes they make perfect thematic sense and we use them on purpose. Sometimes we just can't resist using them because they're so good.

But sometimes, it's an emergency."
"This morning's guest is a no-show. We have to deploy the emergency Krulwich."

emerge-ency

What a horny dude has at 2 a.m. when his tallywacker majorly "comes out of hiding" and he feels an overwhelming and super-urgent need to insert it into the love-tunnel of his bed-partner, even if she is fast asleep or otherwise not in the mood for hot 'n' wild copulation.
Exasperated girl: I don't get it --- it seems like all da guys I know often can't "get it up" prior to "lights out" in the evening, yet they then suddenly have a dire "emerge-ency" some time later, and wake me up at two in the morning, wanting to lulu!
