all your base are belong to us

A declaration of victory or superiority. The phrase stems from a 1991 adaptation of Toaplan's "Zero Wing" shoot-'em-up arcade game for the Sega Genesis game console. A brief introduction was added to the opening screen, and it has what many consider to be the worst Japanese-to-English translation in video game history. The introduction shows the bridge of a starship in chaos as a Borg-like figure named CATS materializes and says, "How are you gentlemen!! All your base are belong to us." sic In 2001, this amusing mistranslation spread virally through the internet, bringing with it a slew of JPEGs and a movie of hacked photographs, each showing a street sign, store front, package label, etc. hacked to read "All your base are belong to us" or one of the other many supremely dopey lines from the game (such as "Somebody set us up the bomb!!!" or "What happen?"). When these phrases are used properly, the overall effect is both screamingly funny and somewhat chilling, reminiscent of the B movie "They Live".

The original has been generalized to "All your X are belong to us", where X is filled in to connote a sinister takeover of some sort. Thus, "When Joe signed up for his new job at Yoyodyne, he had to sign a draconian NDA. It basically said, `All your code are belong to us.'" Has many of the connotations of "Resistance is futile; you will be assimilated"

All Round Pressure Club

The All Round Pressure Club is an exclusive fraternity enjoyed by gentlemen who have their Brown Wings.

The name is derived from the continuous circle of pressure applied by the human anal sphincter which is quite distinct from that of the vagina which, particularly for ladies with a fair amount of wear and tear, has a distinctive H shaped channel which unhelpfully expands as stimulation proceeds.
Lew: Hey Jerry that was some fucking row coming from your apartment last night. I thought someone was being murdered. What the fuck was going on?
Jerry: I got me brown wings, fella. There was collateral damage.
Lew: Get in. Another member of the All Round Pressure Club.

"Elementary my Dear Watson", said Holmes, "the suspect's carefree demeanour, hearty appetite and cheerful countenance merely serves to confirm my suspicion that he is a fully paid up member of the All Round Pressure Club" - Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Pummeled Hoop.
