A delightfully idiotic, wildly immature ambush in which you ask a walking companion, “Do you know George?” Then, without mercy or hesitation, you launch them into the nearest bush like a human lawn dart. Bonus points if it’s thorny, muddy, or in front of someone attractive. Double bonus points if they lose a shoe, spill a coffee, cry, or land on discarded vape cartridges. Elite-level players scream “MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!” while fleeing the scene like a war criminal avoiding international court.
Cultural Note: Despite the name, this has nothing to do with the presidents—unless you're also referring to unsolicited invasions, questionable judgment, or getting wrecked in foreign terrain.
Regional Variations:
* Philly Bushwhack: Same move, but the bush is replaced with a trash pile and the assailant shouts, “E-A-G-L-E-S!” while doing it.
* University of Delaware “Blue Hen Bush Special”: The perp waits until the victim is drunk off Natty Light and Wawa sandwiches, then screams “YO YOU KNOW GEORGE?” and flings them into a bush outside Perkins Student Center. Often followed by campus police pretending not to care because it’s Tuesday.
* The Portland Pruner: Done while wearing flannel and sipping ethically sourced cold brew. Victim must apologize after being shoved for blocking the bike lane.

"Rachel asked Maggie if she knew George, then full-body tackled her into a goddamn holly bush. She knows George now. Intimately. And he’s a prick."
“Bro, I was vibing after a bong rip and Parker hit me with a George Bush—now I’ve got a branch in my ass and trust issues for life.”

When you drinking and not taking care of yourself. You get flakey painful itchy groin sometimes paired with balls vinaigrette from partying and not showering. It hurts to wash and get wet.
