Falsettoland reprise 

Remember that time when you couldn't stop crying? You felt as if your heart was ripped out of your chest and had smashed into a million pieces? That's what this song is. It will make you cry whether or not Marvin's crying soundtrack is even included or you see Jason place the chest piece on the grave.
I have lost all ability to feel such emotion ever again after hearing Falsettoland reprise for the first time

(Reprise) 

The sadder version of a happy or upbeat song (unless it's the story of tonight)
How does Falsettoland (Reprise) make me cry so much when Falsettoland/About time makes me laugh every time?!

atomic reprise 

A comedic technique in which the performer repeats a joke's punchline so many times as to render the joke irrelevant and absurd.
The atomic reprise was first used to great effect by Andy Kaufman, subsequently popularized by Mike Myers (Austin Powers) and Seth MacFarlane (Family Guy).

A fancy word for the repetition or part 2 of a song or message, often seen in live recordings of gospel music.
Oh My Gawd, have you heard the reprise of "Rain on Us"? It's beautiful.

maximum tumescence in repose

As close to erect as a penis can possibly get without standing up or sticking out. The state of full hanging engorgement.
The optimum conditions for a soft core full frontal Playgirl photo shoot.
Deceiving because one assumes that if it's still hanging down it's gonna be bigger standing up when in fact that's all there is.
Cinema appreciator 1: "You saw the end of Boogie Nights, little Marky Mark is hung like a bull moose!"
Cinema appreciator 2: "The hell he is! That was maximum tumescence in repose."

reprise the theme song and roll the credits 

Last line in every episode of Nickelodeon's "Roundhouse", indicating (duh) that the show's over.
