This is military fighter pilots' jargon. When the last missile is fired or when the ordinance has been dropped on target, it is then time to quickly get out of the area-of-operations. The pilot turns his plane towards base and shifts into after-burner. This has since been adopted by the civilian community to mean when a decision has been made, especially if it was a poor decision, you forget about it and press on with the next phase of the mission.
Man, flak was hairy out there so as soon as I dropped my load, it was turn and burn time let me tell you.
I had three on my ass. I braked, banked and ended up on the tail of one. I pulled the trigger and his wing just exploded. I lined up another, got tone and fired a sidewinder up his exhaust and he was gone! The third one ran for home so just befor turn and burn, I fired another missile in his direction."

Get the turn and burnmug. Pubic hair that is untrimmed and so long that it hangs down one's leg similar to side burns. Similarly the chafing from such long hair literally causes friction burns on the thighs.

Get the Burn Noticemug. A condition that many females who attend Burning Man come back home with. Not associated with the alkalai dust of the playa or dehydration, this STD is associated with the lack of good judgment rampant at the annual event.

Get the Burning Clammug. A cigarette burn is term from the film industry to cue when a new reel is needed to be spliced in. They can be seen in the upper corners of most films in theaters. Most often the right hand corner. Although later films have been going digital and are now being distributed on disk rather than reeled film though many cinemas still use the old methods.
