A term coined by political philosopher Adam Smith in his Theory of Moral Sentiments (or, at least in the 2013 "hip" translation of it). This phrase is what the spectator says to the person principally concerned (PCP) when there is no propriety in their level of emotion in a particular situation. It's the spectator's attempt to close the gap between their feelings and the feelings of the PCP so that they can empathize.
"Getting on someone's level" is a beautiful phenomenon that involves self-moderation and therefore gives us morality. As Adam Smith would say, we're all just a bunch of social animals.

Person principally concern: "Oh my gosh I'm so upset Professor Cullen gave me an A- in his Search course!"
Spectator: "Dude, chill. Get on my level. It's not that big of a deal."

Get the Expert Level mug....a sarcastic term used commonly in the popular PC/Xbox 360 game N+ that refers to the suicide that one must perform when there is no way to complete the level they're on. It implies that suicide itself is a "level" even though there is no "bonus" to be found.

Get the Bonus Level mug.A level that can only be reached by the legendary master of swagger. A level consisting of so much steez and bamf-ness that it is impossible for anyone to reach. Because only the legendary master is able to reach this level, he becomes untouchable and can make any lady wet with one glance and give any man a boner, even if that man is straight.
He is the legendary Hyuni O Kwon.

Boy: I wish I could be where I want to be in life. I need to step up my game and get on the next level.
Girl: It doesn't matter if you get on the next level because you'll never reach the Hyuni Level.
