flushed the mouse

Expression that signifies you really screwed something up, especially when operating under pressured. Similar to "dropped the ball, "spit the bit" or "choked" - only worse. First coined on the Tony Kornheiser Podcast.

Flush

Broad term that could be used to describe any scenario, person, activity, etc ranging from a f*cking firework/light/rap concert to receiving a coupon for a free Chick-fil-A sandwhich. Receiving a compon is obviously the more flush situation but flush, being a very broad term, could be used to describe either scenario. In other words, flush is a less aggressive yet just as awesome form of "lit".
Joey: Bro, I just got a coupon for 1 free Chick-fil-A sandwhich on this ticket.

royal flush

Can refer to either of two "throne-based" occurrences:
(A) An embarrassing event which causes red-cheeked humiliation ("flushing") to The Crown, such as Charles and Diana's rocky/brief marriage after such a lavish/heavily-hyped wedding, their subsequent affairs, and Di's suspicious/untimely death.
(B) A humongous porcelain-bowl rinsing with abnormally-copious floods of H-2-0; it involves filling two or more buckets or other sizable vessels with water, raising the toilet-seat and removing the tank-cover, and then recruiting one or more assistants with strong muscles (AND strong **stomachs**!) so that you can then both hold the toilet's handle down and quickly pour additional water into the tank and down the bowl at the same time, creating a massive torrential swirly that is far more voluminous and longer-lasting than usual. This extreme measure can indeed be **sometimes** effective for clearing a plugged toilet-drain, but it can also messily "backfire" (i.e., send filthy stinky water cascading out in all directions) if the clog decides to be extra-stubborn --- user-discretion is strongly advised. Use of liquid/gel drain-opener is not recommended here, either, in case of said "backlash", since the errant drain-opener can cause severe burns and/or property damage.
My toddler-nephews love to spool off yards of tissue and toss it down the crapper when they come to visit, and so the wife and I are always obliged to give the guest-room toilet a royal flush after they leave.

support flush

When you are on the phone so long with tech support that you HAVE to go to the bathroom. It's #2; you can't just leave it there because your housemate will be mad. Even though it's tacky, you just wipe and flush, even though you are well aware that the tech support person can hear the toilet flush.
I was on the phone 3 hours today with tech support, IRS and couldn't hold my poop any longer, so I just did my business and support flushed while he was talking to me.
