The droppings are steaming

The 'droppings are steaming' or indeed any general description of the droppings temperature/circumstances as an analogy to any situation. It is an informal phrase very rarely used in writing, due to its reactionary nature. The idiom originates from a passage in Lord of the Flies where a character, Jack, is hunting a pig and notes with some satisfaction that the droppings he has just encountered are steaming. He is pleased by this, as it means a pig must have been there recently.
"My dudes, come quick, the droppings are steaming."

"Not going to lie, you seriously froze the droppings there."

"The droppings are in a super heated suspension of plasma my guys! This is good."

"You know the droppings just plummeted."

"Compatriots, listen close for I have ascertained with great happiness that the droppings have an effervescence of vapour ,which I can only assume is the gaseous dihydrogen monoxide, which is a cause for great celebration."

Ghetto Drop

A Ghetto Drop is an American beer cocktail that is drunk as a bomb shot, similar to a boilermaker or the irish car bomb. It is made by mixing a half pint of Bud Light with a shot of 2 percent milk.

There are several known variations of the Ghetto Drop:
"The Gangreen"... this variation uses Bud Light Lime.
"Ghetto Skinny Drop"... this variation uses 1 percent milk or skim milk.
"Fatty Bomb"... this variation uses whole milk.

If you were to mix and match variations, you'd use a cross over title for the drink. Example... "the ghetto skinny gangreen" uses skim milk and bud light lime.
Ben: You want an Irish Car Bomb?

Mike: No, no, that's the meat bomb. This is Milk and Bud, bro.
