get em in the chest get em in the face

Used as a verb to describe a quick combat move where one uses an elbow strike to hit someone (typically besides them) in the chest while saying "get em in the chest" and then proceeds to move their arm up while keeping their elbow in place to hit their face while saying "get em in the face." This strike is done in a quick manner and doesn't actually ever make contact with the victim.

i took a dump on your moms chest

The end-all be-all phrase that has the power to end any verbal argument. Once spoken, your opponent will be so much in awe that he will quietly back away.

Brendan: Glass isn't a true solid.
Devin: Your moms a true solid. And so was the dump I took on her chest.
Brendan: ::backs away slowly::
