Get'er done!

An American Southern peasant expression used to prod a workmate to complete a task in a timely manner. It was first used outside a farm field in the 1934 King Vidor Depression-era back-to-nature epic "Our Daily Bread" in the mouth of one of the field workers on an irrigation project relaying the order to let the reservoir water through the irrigation ditch in the last scene of the film.

It also has obvious sexual connotations, whether referring to the job of leading a bull to mount a cow or a man's marital duty.

The expression was made extremely popular by US country/blue-collar comedian Larry The Cable Guy (circa 2003) as the epitome of everything down home vulgar and redneck.
First worker: Let the water through!
Second worker: Go, go, go!
Third worker: Let'er rip!
Fourth worker: Do it now!
Fifth worker: Get'er done!

get er done

Used by rednecks everywhere after the release of the Blue Collar Commedy Tour. Upon seeing this video, rednecks weren't really sure what the phrase meant, but learned that by using it, one could get laughter and applause from other members of the same species. Rednecks also use this phrase as an escape from intelligent conversation. It is doubful that anyone who has used this phrase has actually gotten her done.

"Yessir! (insert laughter)"

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
