Curved Swords

It is a catchphrase associated with town guards from The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. It becomes popular (meme) in a such way similar to the other known "Took an arrow in the knee", "Stop right there criminal scum!" and the "FUS RO DAH" meme. From the game, you can hear the dialogue when you interact with the NPC guards:

"You see those redguards from Hammerfell? They’ve got curved swords. Curved. Swords"

Hearing it over and over again, especially the last part where the NPCs emphasize the Curve Swords, makes it sounds funny yet somehow annoying to most players, until someone decided to troll over the internet using this sentence. Therefore being popular and well-known to the fellow internet users.
They used to take an arrow in the knee, but now they've got curved swords. Curved. Swords.

curve killer

That one person in class who scores significantly higher on a test than the rest of his peers resulting in the grade boost/curve being rendered useless. Curves often give the highest grade an A but if the person has close to an A there is either a very small curve or no curve at all despite everyone else's grade.
James: Mr. Johnson said that he was gonna curve the grade on that test! I only have a 33. What did you get Morgan?
Morgan: I got a 92
James: Aww! You freakin curve killer.

Blind Curve

The part of a vehicular on-ramp or off-ramp curve where people throw their trash out the window of the car because they think other drivers can't see them.

Most of the trash is empty beer bottles, fast food containers and empty energy drink bottles. Most of this is done by people who have no idea what a garbage can looks like and leave their shopping carts in an open parking space.
DRIVER: "Oh man, I can't get pulled over with all these Keystone Light cans under my seat".

PASSENGER: "Dude, don't worry, when we get off the highway to stop at that all night adult bookstore, lets throw them out on the blind curve on the off ramp".

DRIVER: "Good thinking! Hey! I just popped a boner, can two people fit into a peep booth?"
