Night Night patter

Originating in Glasgow, Scotland "night night patter" is when you get to that part of the night when everything that's not funny becomes hilarious, all whilst needing no explanation. Night night patter is usually paired with illegal substances such as acid, ketamine and alcohol.
Night night patter in itself cannot be fully defined, however here are some examples I have come across.

Person one - 'mate look at the state of her, she paints her fucking nails"

Or

Person one - "Know what I'd love? A nice vegan sandwich and a bit of dick"

The Late-Night Pitter-Patter 

Not for the faint of heart. When one roommate openly wrongs another in a irreversible fashion, the victimized roommate is then entitled to cause severe emotional and physical stress by slapping his roommate at an unruly time in the wee hours when he is sleeping. Note* the roommate doing the slapping is to do his best to make the other extremely paranoid, vulnerable, and scared to the point where his roommate will not get to sleep for an extended period of time. The person receiving the slapping may cuss, threaten, and even plea with his tormentor and would-be assailant to avoid the malicious attack. However, these wheelings and dealings must fall on deaf ears, as the aggressor mercilessly makes good on his the threat.

The phrase derives its name from the sound the roommate makes as he sneaks his way across the room to the bed of his unsuspecting pal.
You shouldn't have slept with my mom, now I'm going to give you The Late-Night Pitter-Patter of your life.

Fogey/fogy /fougi/ sl. (early 18C+, orig. Scot) old-fashioned, stuck-in-the mud.

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
