coming up Milhouse

1. When things go in your favor, albeit in a nerdy way.
A reference to a Simpsons episode in which Milhouse first complains about wearing his "dorky highwater shorts" but feels better when the floodwater "soaks his ankles" but leaves his cuffs "bone dry," at which point he exclaims "Alright, everythings coming up Milhouse."

Example: I was picked as the "Best Edward from Twilight Look-alike" at the Springfield Bi-Mon Sci-Fi Con. Looks like everything is coming up Milhouse.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
