When you're being quiet fired but you respond by quiet quitting instead of quitting outright, playing a prolonged game of chicken to see which of you or your employer will be the first to flinch.
My employer gave me a 0% pay increase this year while saddling me with new impossible responsibilities in hope of coercing attrition, but I just hunkered down and performed consistently below my competency level, working to rule for my inflation-adjusted salary. This is now a quiet showdown. You can't quiet fire me. I quiet quit!

The act of your significant other having to prove their worth to you after many failed attempts to reciprocate to your advances.
Person A having to go above and Beyond for person B due to the person A being a dumb ass! Leaving person A to a Romance Showdown to win person B over :)

You eat a chili dog, and then you ride on a roller coaster. If you didn’t puke, you eat another chili dog and then ride again until you puke.
Alright then, I challenge you to a chili-dog showdown. Whoever wins gets the girl.
“Damn it, Jerry, I challenge you to a chili-dog showdown.”
