"I'd like you to lend me some money"

Etymology is from the cartoon "Popeye", where the character Wimpy would frequently utter this phrase. He was a glutton, and would consume burgers at a ferocious rate but could rarely pay for his habit.

The phrase implies the underlying feeling that the person will unlikely actually pay for the hamburger (or whatever) on Tuesday (or ever, for that matter.
I told my bank that I'd gladly 'pay them tuesday for a hamburger today' to buy that new sportscar, but they wouldn't approve me.

Your Mother Was a Hampster!

Most likely the world's most horrible burn or insult, and can only be countered with "Your Father Smelled of Elderberries!"

Pulling a Hamilton

When you expose yourself for some stupid shit you did a long time ago for a pointless reason.
Jeff was pulling a Hamilton last night when he exposed himself for cheating on his wife, so she wouldn't think he was out getting drunk.

Pulling a Hamlet

Occurs when an employee leaves work prior to the company’s cultural expectation of 7:00pm. This is true even if they came in before 7:00am or worked virtually the rest of the evening.
Employee 1:"Hey where is Joe? Is he in a meeting?"

Employee 2: "No, he's pulling a Hamlet." or "No, he pulled a Hamlet."

From Popeye cartoons. Line often uttered by Popeye's portly friend Wimpy. Of course, "Tuesday" would never come, and so Wimpy constantly secured himself a free lunch. Thus the line is used to jokingly indicate that one would like to "borrow" something without any real intention of ever paying you back.
At the movies:

Bob: Aw man, I forgot my wallet! Hey Joe, I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a movie ticket today...?

Joe: Yeah whatever...I'll buy your sorry ass another movie ticket just shut up.
