Sending Gatsby back home

A euphemism for sexual intercourse, presumably derived from the fact that Gatsby lived in a place called "West Egg." The resulting euphemism implies that the sex is intended to result in pregnancy.
Matt- "Dude, when I go abroad next year I'm gonna be 'sending Gatsby back home' all night, every night!"
Dave- "Matt, the last thing we need is a whole shit ton of pregnant furries."
