American English, bastardized way of saying "get good". A very short, succinct way of saying: Quit playing the incompetent victim; practice makes perfect; You can do better, so do better.
Also a way a dismissive way of saying that you will not waste time holding someone's hand, walking them through how to do something when all they need to do is temper themselves through repetition.

Comes from a mispronunciation of the words "get good", meaning basically "learn how to do it" "get better" and is commonly used in a majority of online videogame community in a negative meaning, to mock someone who's having problems with some section of a game. In Dark Souls community is a commonly used phrase, mostly by elitist shitheads who think they're gods made flesh just because they can play this game in a certain way.
