Do The Right Thing

A mythical computer instruction. Whatever is right to do at this point in the program, do that.

A new instruction has been added to the PDP-10 instruction set: Do The Right Thing. Please update your programs. (From a MOTD - Message of the day -- on an MIT ITS system.)

Organic chemistry, because of the appearance of benzene rings and similar structures used to notate the shapes of molecules.

Did my thing.

What a pervert says when he gets to a point in a conversation where he thinks what he is about to describe is too much for his audience to handle.

Christopher: So I was at the laundromat with Carl and realized we were alone. So I, you know...did my thing. Then I pulled up my pants and went home.

Lisa: Wait! What the fuck does that mean?

Christopher: You know...did my thing.
