keeping up with the Botwins

Much like 'keeping up with the Joneses', in which a family competes with neighbors to own the coolest home, car, things, and kids; keeping up with the Botwins is the struggle to afford to do so through crime. The name is derived from the Botwin family in the Showtime series Weeds, led by Nancy Botwin, who sells marijuana in order to provide and protect her family, who follow in her criminal footsteps.
I was wondering how the family down the block could afford three Lamborghinis and a Porsche until they got busted by the cops for keeping up with the Botwins.

I'm selling MDMA in order to pay for college loans. Just trying to keep up with the Botwins!

keeping it thus

Undefinable, inexplicable, enigmatic. One does not easily obtain the ultimate objective of "keeping it thus". One must work tirelessly and incessantly to achieve "thus".
"Caitlin has lotsa sass and lotsa class, but is she keeping it thus?"

Keeping her green

Pronounced "keepin' 'er green"

While working from home, deliberately moving the mouse or pressing keys solely to keep Skype for Business status as "Available" (green) instead of "Away/Inactive" (yellow) so that your boss thinks you're working
Person 1: "I Skyped him 3 times today, I don't know why he isn't responding, his status is 'Available' on Skype"
Person 2: "That's because he's keeping her green, the guy is playing Runescape all day today and he just wiggles his mouse on the work laptop every 15 minutes so his Skype status doesn't become inactive".
