I'm on it

A phrase used by an individual in a group suddenly determined to resolve a task or meaningless puzzle (that the others are too lazy to accomplish), usually in attempt to glorify their image or make them feel valuable to that group.

I'm on it

Three two-letter words that somebody uses when they want to make short work of whatever task that needs to be done.
Especially when that person who said it is closest to that problem to tackle it.
Jimmy the supervisor was on the floor surveying all while Jerry is putting stock on the shelves at the liquor store.

Jimmy gets a call on his cell, answers it, and listens...

Jimmy (listening intently, then replies): ... Yes, sir! You need that NOW?!

And meet you at the front part of the store? Okay, sir!

(Jimmy yells to James...)

Jimmy (with emphasis): Jerry! I need you to get six bottles of Cristal, 3 bottles of José Cuervo, some whiskey sour mix,

two super-big bottles of Jack Daniel's, a case of Captain Morgan, and 4 bottles of Scotch! Get a crate and a dolly ready!

Jerry (asking): What's the occasion?

Jimmy (straightforward): A client wants to stock up for a New Year's party right now! Trying to beat the holiday rush!

Jerry (surprised): He is?! I'm on it!

Jimmy: Hold up, Jerry! I'll help you! Get that dolly and a couple of boxes, and we'll get that done ASAP PDQ!

I'm on it like Blue Bonnet

I am working very hard on developing some stuff.

(One's intonation will effect the exact meaning of this... i.e.:)

1. I am overwhelming the issue by investing WAY to much time and energy into it... like WAY too much butter on a muffin.

2. I am doing a CRAPPY job at this... just as blue bonnet is a crappy margarine substitute.

3. I am doing a skimpy job because the job I would do would be crap anyways... just like blue bonnet should be used sparingly. Being crap.
1. "You gonna hit that bitch?" "Oh yeah... she be drunk... I'm ON IT like BLUE BONNET!"

2. "Hey, are you finished photocopying that deposition?" *uncaring* "Uh, yeah, I guess... *sigh* I'm on it.. like blue bonnet"

I'm on it tonight

He's on a roll with relevant and humorous conversation.
When I'm on it tonight:

Yeah. That is a gun in my pants. But that doesn’t mean I’m not happy to see you…

Life is an endless series of train-wrecks with only brief, commercial-like breaks of happiness.

With great power comes great merchandising opportunity.

Listen, the day I decide to become a crime-fighting shit swizzler who rooms with ava bunch of other little whiners at the Neverland Mansion of some creepy, old, bald, Heaven’s Gate-looking motherfucker… on that day, I’ll send your shiny, happy ass a friend request!

One's realization that regardless of a mistake or altercation, you really just don't give a fuck because you're high or drunk.
