Rest in Peace 

Phrase that used to be used at funerals when someone passed away, is now used on social media to milk attention and pity from “followers” or “friends”, posted as if it is supposed to be said to the dead person who won’t see it.
“Rest in Peace Grandpa John”
Your grandpa John is dead and won’t see this post.

Rest in peace, please! 

1. Wishing someone was (almost) dead - at least to you.
2. Holler that if an old girl-/boyfriend (in other words: your ex) simply won´t leave you alone and starts stressing you out.
3. Abbreviate like this: RIPPLS
Ex: "Jennie, you should really give me another chance - I have changed!"
Jennie: "Douchebags don´t change. Just leave me alone."
Ex: "But Jennie, the least you could do is to give me your new cell phone number. Why have you changed phones, anyway?"
Jennie: "Oh, rest in peace, please!"

Rest in peace, please! 

Very desperate exclamation when an annoying and extremely obnoxious person just won´t leave you alone.
Girl: Thilo, why won´t you just leave me alone?!? You are an ugly fuckwit.
Thilo: You know you want it, baby.
Girl: Rest in peace, please!

Work In War, Rest In Peace

WIW is the opposite of RIP but they go together and can be sides of the same coin.
(‘Rest in Peace’ VS ‘Work in War’)
To be used directly when normally saying “RIP” or in the context of counterpointing “laying things to rest”:

Meaning 1) To say that working hard often accompanies resting, (much like “work hard, play hard” (WIW, RIP)

Meaning 2) To say that failure was the cause of violence, forcefulness or trying too hard (WIW, RIP)

Meaning 3) To say that you’ll never rest, never sleep until something is done (WIW)- used on its own.

Meaning 4) As an insult, see example below
Thug tries to start fights, initiates/escalates arguments and gets kicked out of a bar by the bouncer (meaning 2)
Onlooker 1: “looks like the troublemaker wont be making any more trouble tonight!”
Bystander 3 (in an air of wise superiority): “Work In War, Rest In Peace

OR

After a long week at work and lots of drama and hairy situations on a night out, two friends make it back home at 7 in the morning. (Meaning 1)
Mrs Gilbert: “What a night! Just got home”
Mrs Jones: “Gonna hit the hay. WIW, RIP”

OR

(Meaning 3)
Mr Thomas: “Are you still at it after all this time?”
Mr Paisley: “No rest for the wicked, let alone me, RIP-WIW”

Fourth (bonus usage as an insult): “I’ll work in war, you can rest in peace
