What Quentin Tarantino says when an TV presenter wants to fuck with him asking why his movies are so violent
QT: ...I don’t want to talk about the implications of violence…
KGM: No, but you haven’t fleshed it out.
QT: It’s not my job to flesh it out.
KGM: No, it’s my job to try and ask you to.
QT: And I’m shutting your butt down!
KGM: No, but you haven’t fleshed it out.
QT: It’s not my job to flesh it out.
KGM: No, it’s my job to try and ask you to.
QT: And I’m shutting your butt down!

This phenomenon describes how some people react to undesirable and uninspiring work situations. This phenomenon is mainly applicable to people working boring, mindless jobs, most of whom perform rote work -- e.g., data entry -- or are paid simply simply for their presence -- e.g., a booth attendant. Activities that constitute 'shutting down' and checking out' include: napping, reading, sending excessive/unnecessary text messages, and listening to one's iPod.
Elliott: I'm surprised Tom hasn't gotten more sleep today -- doesn't he have to work the graveyard shift tonight?
Mark: Yeah, but remember, he's a booth attendant in the middle of the night...he's just going to Show up, Shut down, Clock in and Check out.

A rebuttal used in a debate or argument purely for the intent to overly simplify their opponent's point, even purposefully misinterpreting it.
An example being if A is critical of the president then B can say "you only believe that because your candidate lost the election." The statement can either be true or false, but it's use is to end A's argument. The rebuttal does not actually do anything for the purpose of debate.

"I can't handle talking to fans of the Star Wars sequels. Anytime I say I didn't like it they use the shut-down argument 'you only hate it because what you predicted was wrong.'"

Shut down is a psuedonym for sucking dick. This psuedonym is used to be more descreet about one's actual intended meaning and to get past profanity filters on social media. Shut refers to the closing action of the mouth, and down is borrowed from the slang "going down", which means to have oral sex.
