Upper United States

A refined 1950s person’s way of saying “Up your ass!” without anyone really understanding it.
My petite blonde bombshell mother would put her hands on her hips in that challenging but white bread snooty manner of hers and confidently state to someone who had pissed her off, “Upper United States, buddy!” and of course she’d already taught me the subtle secret decoding of this cryptic insult which was to just imagine she was saying this in a lame American’s idea of an Italian accent and the United States is really U-S, as in “uppa you ess!”

A one-upper who always has to be bigger or better than you. If your uncle has 20 ft. boat, his uncle or cousin has 21 ft. boat. A one-upper never loses in the world of story-telling.

Mexican Uppercut

A.K.A. Mexican DP, Mexican Dragon Punch

Slang in OG FGC (fighting game community) that gained popularity during the Street Fighter 2 scene when a player that does not know how or want to do proper Dragon Punch (aka. DP, Shoryuken) special move and just does a basic crouching uppercut move instead.

In Street Fighter for shoto characters like Ryu, Ken, Akuma/Gouki, the move is done with Down+HP (aka. Down+Fierce, 2H, 2HP, 2Fierce) and you see the character crouching and doing an uppercut.

Very well known phrase that is still spoken about in the FGC. Still talked about by pros and veterans, such as Alex "CaliPower" Valle of Southern California.
