Gear shifter

When a girl is giving a handjob she thinks it it necessary to pull guy's penis forward and backward similar to that of a car's manual transmission. Also can simply refer to a bad handjob.

Bill: Was it good?

Bob: No... I got the Gear shifter

Hell Shift

A hell shift is a particularly bad work schedule for any given day. Usually a hell shift involves working more than 12 hours in a continuous block, but it could also reference a late night shift followed by a lengthy early morning shift.
Today I am working a hell shift; my shift requires me to get up at 5am and work until 7pm. That's hell.

The Paradigm Shift

In a general sense, a change happening on a vast scale. A shift in the big picture, if you will.

Specifically "The Paradigm Shift" refers to a certain oft discussed and theorized shift in social groups concerning several different intersecting social circles. The Paradigm Shift did not happen within the originally proposed timeline of the spring of 2008, but new evidence has come to light suggesting that The Paradigm Shift may still be happening, just on a larger timeline and consisting of not exactly the same changes as earlier expected.
"The Paradigm Shift" may still come to manifest itself in the first quarter of 2009.
