throw the gun 

After an arguement is lost or an idividual has been outwitted, the loser, backed in the proverbial corner, takes the low road and resorts to personal cheapshots or name calling as opposed to facts.
Basically the individual has made a last ditch effort and like on the movies, "throws the gun" because he has run out of bullets (intellectual/factual ammo).
After proving Mr. T wrong in front of the crowd, he decided to throw the gun and bring up the time I slept with his twin brothers at homecoming.

Any Hole Is The Goal 

Wisdom worth adhering to; words to live by.

"Any hole is the goal" is not a sentiment to be taken lightly . You must truly believe that, in fact, any hole is the goal - no matter how large or small, how deep or shallow. You must have full faith in that whatever the hole may be, it is considered your desired end result, or goal.

This can apply to many situations one may encounter in his or her life journey, including but not limited to anything from a game of golf, to endeavors under the sheets. Using this phrase signifies that the speaker does not discriminate which hole they prefer.

Also used as an excalamation when one is about to accomplish something courageous that involves a hole, similar to the popular interjection, "Geronimo!".

Disclaimer: Please remember that partaking in this lifestyle could be potentially dangerous; but never lose faith.

Always remember, in any event, to enter and exit holes with caution and confidence.
Jasmine: "That hole is not the goal"

Aidan: "Nonono but any hole is the goal!"

*Jumps into a hole*

Don't hate the player, hate the game. 

Ex 1:
If the game is forced on the individuals required to "play" it... Such as war or an area in conflict etc. Using tactics to win or survive may not always be fair or morally right. In this instance, hating the player is useless and the quotes logic seems to ring true. This also covers situations where the rules say you can do certain things, the rules are followed and the other players just don't like that you are able or competent at taking advantage of and succeeding at the game.
However...
Ex 2:
If the game is not forced, there is no situation requiring life threatening survival choices or there was not agreement to start a game with certain parameters .. This saying is used to absolve someone of the act of wrong doing to another by convincing either or both the perpetrator and victim that there was no other choice. Fairness, rules , laws and social norms seem to get lumped into this version of the definition and it's implied that the victim is wrong for holding the perpetrator responsible for their actions. More specifically, calling life a game and using this quote to avoid responsibility for being unfair, deceitful or cheating on purpose and existing outside laws, rules and social norms.
Don't hate the player, hate the game.

Ex 1:
We were at war, I did what I had to do. Don't hate me, hate that our country had to go to war.

Ex 2:
We work in an office with no cameras and loose rules on handling theft. Don't hold me responsible for stealing your things, hate the office for letting me get away with it.

Nobody likes him. A little kid that runs around and kicks people in the shins and stabs with spoons. Very short. VERY.SHORT.

Can be racist to mexicans/asians/chinese/japanese/white/black/

Is similar to that of a ginger, having no soul.

Father beats with spoon. May stab in kneecaps with one. Watch out!
You see that kid? Bradley the Gaylord, Nobody likes him.

jumping the grenade

An action performed by the wing man, this situation arises when the said wing man takes one for the team by hitting on the fat/ugly chick in order to help his buddy/buddies score with her hot friends, and therefore, sacrifices himself by jumping onto the grenade.

The pin is said to be removed from the grenade when one man goes in alone, and the grenade prevents further interaction with the hot chick(s). Therefore, the jumping of the grenade must be performed immediately before all soldiers are blown to smithereens.
The hot chick's fat friend was successful in cock blocking me because by the time my wing man was jumping the grenade, his coverage was not sufficient enough to protect us from the explosion. Attempts in obtaining intel (phone number, email address, conversation, dancing, etc...) have been thwarted.
