dowing

A combination of Homer Simpson's word "D'oh" and the word "rowing".
It is used to describe the sport rowing, as it is a sport performed by lower than average people. It describes the sport in a Neanderthal way, that is typical of its particpants.

Doing a Morrison

A range of tactics for dodging your responsibilities, including (but not limited to): going missing when the going gets tough; passing the buck; and talking your way out of a tight spot with an empty promise.

Australian slang. Inspired by Australia’s 30th Prime Minister Scott Morrison.

(NOTE: ‘Doing a Morrison’ is not to be confused with ‘Getting Morrisoned’, which usually involves you losing either your pre-selection (see Michael Towke), your job (see Christine Holgate), or your credit for a job well done (see nearly everyone else).)
Crew member 1: “The ship’s taking on water. We’re sinking. Where the bloody hell’s the captain?”
Crew member 2: “Oh, he’s already done a Morrison and racked off in a lifeboat.”

Barry: “How did you get your creditors off your back.”
Bruce: “Too easy. I told them the, ah, cheque was in the mail. Did a total Morrison.”

Delia: “Did you eat the last Tim Tam?”
Nev (wiping chocolate from his lips): “No. It must have been… the other guy.”
Delia: “What other guy? You’re doing a Morrison, aren’t you?”

“Yeah mate, it was piss easy, I just did a Morrison. Promised I’d always love her and she believed it and gave me the money.”

Doing a T-Paine

The act of sitting in complete silence for the duration of a first date, and still gaining a second.

Doing a Boris

What Boris Johnson has just done while trying to become Prime Minister of the UK.

Imagine you want to live in Dave's house. To get it, you walk in and openly do a massive shit in his front room. Dave moves out. Thing is, your shit smells so bad you decide you don't want it after all, leaving the house and the rest of the street for that matter, a desolate rancid mess.

This is known as doing "a Boris".

Downgrade Dude

The Guy that your Ex GF ends up with, that helps you fully understand your true value, and instantly validates what you already knew.... that you were always way too good for her.

You don’t dislike this guy, you love him from the second you see his completely absent, zero style....and his creepy, weathered, Opie like features. 90% of his wardrobe comes from either Bass Pro Shop or Cabelas. He dresses like he is, a Junior in high school, yet plays on a way too old man, weekend warrior, softball or OTL (on to losers) league.

His passion and fire in life....is beer, beach, beer, and bro’s. He might combine 2 of them and do something as riveting and spicy as.......Bass Fishing.

Also know as a Downgrade Bro, he has a bad flat bill surf hat, and way too worn, surf tank top, for every occasion. He sleeps in a hat, has sex in a hat, and showers in a hat. He is always making dumb goofy faces or stupid over exaggerated gestures in every pic. This helps off set the ugly, the age and sun weathering, and the severe lack of handsomeness and endowment. (Big lifted truck/small white dick)

Chaaaa brahhh is part of his everyday vocabulary, and being a beach burnout local is his true specialty and prideful talent. Most likely listens to a lot of really bad white boy reggae....(Iration, Dirty Heads, Rome)
1. Dude surfs up at the pier brahhhh, i saw your Ex’s, Downgrade Dude surfing the polluted turd break the other day brahhh! He looked older than her dad, it’s gross !!!

2. Hey are you still dating that one girl that never smiled, was super bitchy, and just read books in her room? (Person 2)......No my man, her lease was up. I Traded in and upgraded to a sleeker, sportier, sexier model, she went with a serious Downgrade Dude.

3. Can I trade in my Lamborghini for that Peugeot over there? Or my Ferrari for that Citron?.....this would best describe my Gf with me, or her choice of a Downgrade Dude.
