taking the Ollie

Pleading the Fifth.

Ever since matters totally "went North" in the Iran-Contra fiasco, it seems like every bleepin' congressman and other government official has started simply "taking the Ollie" whenever things start heating up in ol' da ethics department!

Taking a Jack

Taking a retardedly long time to shit

“Hey buddy, I’m going to use the restroom.”
“Just don’t take too long...”
“Don’t worry, I’m not taking a Jack.”

Take one for the Team

Also known as the "Volunteer's Dilemma". This is a social dilemma with several people involved and one must sacrifice their evolvement or reward for the benefit of the rest of the group.

I saw that guy really take one for the team. You must be close.

Take the extreme step

To commit suicide

I don't know why people take the extreme step for such a small problem.

Take-out Tower

A take out tower is when your roommate orders out every day but also loves their food so much that they save it for weeks on end in a 6x6in square within the fridge. Also, though, it implies that there are other items in the fridge that are taking up space because your roommate is so organized and cleanly. The roomate utilizes just a 6x6in square for all the take out that they have ordered and saved for a later day to have their roommate throw it away.

"When you have several takeout orders stacked on top of one another, preceding the most recent order, you have a 'Take-out Tower.'

If you ever encounter a 'Take-out Tower,' make sure the foundation of the tower is a pizza box or a taco bowl, crowned with a Burger King bag. If you or your roommate have your 'Take-out Tower' in reverse order, the builder of the tower will ultimately scoff when it collapses and then blame their non-offending, non-Take-out Tower-building roommate.

Take-out towers are a kind of flex because you can afford to build such a tower."
