I second that emotion

"I agree."

It's basically a misuse of verbage from the Town Hall form of voting, also used in many clubs and other organizations, where someone makes a motion (suggestion), and someone else will second (agree with) it in order to bring the issue to a vote.

person 1: I make a motion to accept this issue with the proposed amendment.

person 2: I second that motion

chairperson: All in favor say aye

<voting commences>

It's a mispronounciation that just stuck, since you might actually agree with the emotion behind the particular decision which is being discussed.
dude1: dude, we should totally hit taco bell
dude2: dude, i second that emotion

Six second rule

The Six Second Rule can be used under 2 conditions:

1. When asking someone out and AIM shows that they are typing for more than 6 seconds normally implying a 'no'.

2. When you say 'hi/hey/whats up' via AIM and it takes them more than 6 seconds to reply, normally implying that they are leaving and are saying goodbye.
(over AIM)
person 1: hey
(takes more than 6 seconds to respond)
person 1: (thinking to himself: aww, shit, he gotta go. DAMN YOU SIX SECOND RULE!!!)
person 2: hey, I gotta go. Sorry, see you later.

three second rule

The three second rule is as follows: When you walk into the room where the girl you are interested in is or when she arrives in the vicinity you must initiate conversation within three seconds so to convey spontaneous thought. If you do not follow it and initiate conversation after a couple of minutes she may be less talkative and less attracted by your likely prepared speech. Even if you come out with some shit it will likely be better than preparing something to say. She'll probably be able to tell.
*Shit here she is, here goes*.."eh Hey you're looking fine today girl..where have you been i've not seen you since yesterday"
"yeah! I was at my boyfriend's house"
"oh, ok, eh, *wtf nooo!* - eh, what u been up to then?"
