Pushing up Daisies 

Being dead. Kicked the bucket. Gone. Out. Done-zo.

Guy 3: "He's pushing up daisies."
Guy 1: :(

pushin' up daisies 

A cool way of sayin' someone's dead. 'Cause if someone was dead, they'd be underground, and if they were underground they would be the only ones responsible to make things come out of the ground. See intertia.

That's right, dead guys make flowers. Smell them.
I shot Billy with a gun. Now he's pushin' up daisies.

Eternity leave 

When some resigns or retires from a job, they are on "eternity leave". This can also refer to someone who has passed away, especially someone who worked somewhere for a long time, retired/resigned, then passed away later.
Oh I'm sorry, you didn't know that Kelly is on eternity leave? She resigned and moved to Hawaii!

With regrets I would like to inform you that my boss is officially on eternity leave. I will never see or hear them again. Ever.
