Originated from contemporary spoken Hebrew, it defines a situation where an agitated person, most probably with a splitting head-ache, hang-over or before his first morning cofee, is asking another to calm down, don't use verbose sentences, speak slower or not to overload his aching head with issues that requires listening, thinking or focusing.

This phrase, originating from a leading Israeli comedy show, is well curved in contemporary spoken language and it means (in a free translation): - "slow down your shutter, your "homing in" on me in an overloading manner".

Gesture-aware people most often accompany this phrase with an overdramatic facial expression of a person abrupting his 1-hour sleep after having an awful hang-over, by some woody-allen style geek who lightens up the room and asking him if he read about the new star names EL-12141 reently discovered in our solar system.
You have just broken up with your girlfriend, and you have a splitting headache after a long night of non-fruitful pick-up bar road-show, and you have just been awaken your MBA roomate who opens your room windows wide, turns on the music loudly, and tells you in a patronizing voice "look at you, I am going to take care of you. Do you want me to prepare you an organic Soya drink? and then, we can practice some Yoga, and then..."

You then bluntly, with a suffering voice, eyes half-shut,your right hand blocking the rude sunlight coming from the windows, looking at him and, right before falling asleep again, saying "Tsamtsem, ata lo ba-li-tov".

42nd Street Shuttle

The shortest train line in New York City, probably the world. It runs in between Times Square and Grand Central and back all day, yes those are the only two stops.

Nobody knows why it exists, except for really lazy nut jobs who are to lazy to have one extra stop on the 7 train in between. Or if your in a rush to work where you need every second or your boss fires you, and this train buys you a little time.
Guy: I'm gonna take the 7 train to work today, it's the easiest way to work. No transfers, just a smooth ride.

Boss: (calls) If your one second late, your fired!!!

Guy: God damn, I only have 20 minutes left, Ugggg I guess i'm gonna take the useless 42nd Street Shuttle. Now I've gotta take the 7 train get off one stop at Times Square, transfer to the Shuttle, go to Grand Central, then walk back to the 7 train, and it buys me 1 minute. Worth it I guess?

Scuttle

To bail out of a bad situation before things get even worse. From the dictionary definition to sink one's own ship.
"That ugly chick you were being nice to thinks you want her. You better go over there and scuttle now before you get too drunk to know better."

Shutter Vision

A visual effect caused by drug use or lack of sleep. The world looks as if your eyes are opening and closing extremely fast, but you can't feel any eye movement, and others can't tell you're seeing funny. It is like the opening and closing of a camera shutter on high speed capture. And it can be very disorienting.
"Dude, I roofied myslef and now I got mega shutter vision, the world looks like discovery channel or something."

"Damn, I've been up for days and the world looks like it's a cartoon; crazy-ass shutter vision yo."
