The Long S 

An obsolete variant of the letter s "ſ" that is often confused with an f (it also resembles ∫, a calculus symbol); It fell out of favour in the early 19th-Century for this very reason, as printers found that it was more practical to use a variant of s that would not be confused with f.

The long s still survives in German as the letter ß, which is a ligature of the letters ſ and s combined into ſs (ß). It can also be found in the Jägermeiſter (Jägermeister) logo.
"Hey, why does this word say 'ſuſpicious' in this old book? Shouldn't that be an s; I don't remember suspicious being spelt with f."

"That's just one of the ways that they wrote s back then; it's called the Long S."

the long sit 

The long sit is an expression used for people who play videos games very often ( 5-8 hours a day) while sitting in a chair. Coming from the original expression " in it for the long run or long haul". These kind of people usually do not work and have no other aspirations than to play video games.
Bryce has played on steam for 100 hours this week he's in it for the long sit.

Tom has over 2 thousand hours played online this year hes in it for the long sit.

Fucked by the Long Shaft of the Law 

The long shaft of the law is what you receive when you get caught slippin’ by the police.

It is unforgiving, punishing, vindictive, veiny, long, and you don’t get to say no to any inch of it.

Generally reserved for felonious felons that commit felonies.
The only way to assuredly avoid getting fucked by the Long Shaft of the Law is to never ever leave the safety of your constitutionally protected house, answer the door for, or talk to anybody.

the long sell 

A scheme, trick or a practical joke that may take days, weeks and sometimes years to accomplish. Usually done with bad intentions. Very few people have the unimaginable self discipline that it takes to perpetuate this ongoing charade.
In "there's something about Mary," the long sell pulled off by Norm, the pizza delivery guy is quite impressive. By pretending to have a broken back and using crutches day in and day out he is able to get up close and personal with her as his chiropractor. The count of Monte cristo holds the record for the longest sell in history...20 years.
