Upper United States 

A refined 1950s person’s way of saying “Up your ass!” without anyone really understanding it.

My petite blonde bombshell mother would put her hands on her hips in that challenging but white bread snooty manner of hers and confidently state to someone who had pissed her off, “Upper United States, buddy!” and of course she’d already taught me the subtle secret decoding of this cryptic insult which was to just imagine she was saying this in a lame American’s idea of an Italian accent and the United States is really U-S, as in “uppa you ess!”
