Going Over The Top

A phrase used during World War I to describe men climbing out of their trenches to attack the opposing trenches. Before running into a wall of rifle and machine gun fire, the attackers were usually given a warm meal, a bit of rum, and said potential goodbyes to each other before facing almost certain death. It was considered the greatest test a man could ever face.

"As time passed, apprehension became acute as I weighed my chances for surviving the attack. No; I could not so easily give up. The grip of life was tightening on me and more than ever I wanted to live." -British Liaison Officer before going over the top at the Third Battle of Ypres

Going Galt

Referencing the protagonist John Galt in Ayn Rand's novel "Atlas Shrugged" where the aforementioned and fellow business tycoons go on strike to "stop the motor of the world" which leads to the collapse of the socialist society (true collectivism would be like the Borg) portrayed in the novel.

Thus "Going Galt" implies to either not start or cease being productive as a response to socialism.

I can't believe that socialist Obama was elected in a statistical landslide. I'm Going Galt!!

Going Snake

An English Slang phrase. Other notable variations include, "About to Go Snake On", "Went Snake On" and "'Bout to Get Snake On". The exact origin of this phrase is unknown; though it could have originated in the brutal massacre which occurred in Oklahoma called the Going Snake Massacre. Typically found in usage in U.S. Military circles, the phrase has become more common in the English vernacular. The phrase typically carries the meaning of attacking or accosting a person in an extremely violent and unrestrained manner with no thought about consequences. Also, usage may relate to one's approach to a situation or environment. This phrase is a more extreme variation within the family of other colloquialisms such as "freaking out" or "loosing it".

He was Going Snake on that dude before they pulled him off.
