Tryin' it 

Putting too much obvious effort into achieving something. Most often applies to trying to act or look cool in comparison to others - or in trying to get the sexual attention of a boy or girl.

Action spurred by a desperation for attention.

E: Did you see how Ryan was acting last night at the bar, he was just begging for attention!
M: Yeah, he was definitely tryin' it.

"Thomas the Train" it 

When you take a bong rip you can't finish, leave some stale smoke in the chimney, and clear the bong by blowing into the downstem.

After taking a massive bong rip I couldn't finish, I had to "Thomas the Train" it.

trying to work it out

expression used by couples that are breaking up but won't admit it. Often just delaying the inevitable.

Tiger Woods & his wife were "trying to work it out" after she caught him cheating. But she took his ass to the cleaners anyhow
