"Kill the Carrier" is a childhood game of tag involving an object that is held by the "it" kid until he is tackled and forced to give it up.
Rules of play: The kid who has the ball (or stick, or balled up shirt, or whatever object is used) is "it" and therefore the "carrier". The rest of the kids chase the "it" kid down until they are tackled (usually in a dog pile fashion). They then toss the object away where the other kids gather around it and wait to see who has the guts to pick it up and start running. The game is usually played within an agreed to bounds, usually one persons yard. This prevents the game from becoming a foot race. There are no scores and no one "wins". It is a childhood game of bravado designed to blow off energy.

Get the Kill the Carrier mug.North Scottish term for an utterly gorgeous, amazing girl, who should not be given up for anything, even if she lives far away and you don't see her all too often. She will make you very happy, and without her, life will seem dull and grey in comparison. If you end up with this class of female, be proud, because no matter who you are she will always be way out of your league.

The error message given by a modem when the telephone line carrier signal is lost. In the days of BBSs this was a frequent occurrence, often at the very moment someone was typing a sentence. Loss of signal would cause a string of garbage characters to be displayed to the recipient.
In later years this gave rise to an unending joke, depicting someone getting forcefully interrupted or otherwise cut off the internet, out of spite, in the middle of a particularly boring thought, irritating tirade, or some Famous Last Words.
