Cheese Rolling

The act of developing software whereby everyone flings themselves collectively and dangerously down a hill at breakneck speed in pursuit of a common, unattainable goal with dubious value.
Dave: Yes, but if we create a single factory that returns an abstraction of those functions then we can replace their use with a simple, single call. It'll only take me a few weeks to implement and rewrite all the unit tests to use it.
Bob: Yeah that sounds amazing! Nice and clean.
Susan: We are cheese rolling here.

Cheese Rolling

Cheese rolling is probably one of the simplest sports out there. From the top of hill, a round of Double Gloucester cheese is rolled and competitors chase after it. The first individual across the finish line at the bottom of the hill wins
(the cheese of course).
"Its a nice day outside, we should get some buddies together and roll the cheese (go cheese rolling)"

cheese rolling

A sport performed in Gloucestershire, otherwise known as "the land of sheep and potatoes" or "party central of the world", involving some old men in tweed jackets and tweed trousers rolling large pieces of cheese down steep hills. The winner is awarded a cheese trophy (yes i am jealous of him too).
This sport is highly dangerous and many people die from it each year. So only attend if you are a "hard core sports junkie"
Bring your own cheese.
"Hey Kate do you want to go to the cinema?"
"Nah, no can do Im going cheese rolling."

More from Urban Dictionary
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
