Turkish Getup

An amazing display of human strength.
Turkish Getup - lay on your back, pick up a heavy weight (or your girlfriend) with one arm, stand up, then lay back down. Repeat with the other arm.

Turkish Getup

A standing/reverse-cowgirl hybrid where the bottom partner starts lying on their back, then uses one arm (like the kettlebell exercise it’s named after) to push themselves up into a full standing position while still impaled and riding the top partner’s dick/strap-on. Bonus points if the top partner stays completely still the whole time like a human kettlebell, letting the bottom do all the dramatic Turkish get-up gymnastics for maximum core workout and show-off flex.
“She hit me with the Turkish getup last night, stood all the way up with my dick still inside her like it was an Olympic event. My soul left my body around rep three.”

get up the yard

Definition: This insult from Dublin in Ireland means:

* Get lost!
* Nonsense!
* I disagree.
* I don't believe you.

Delivery: "Giddup" is said in a rising tone; "de yaard" in a falling tone. Correctly delivered, it is implacably dismissive. Usually spat in reaction to something said, it operates best as a violent, caustic ejaculation.

Like many insults, it may be used cordially between friends.

Genesis: It was used in the mid-1960s as a command to get up the school yard at St. Pius X National School in Templeogue, Dublin. The school consisted of prefabricated buildings arranged around the church on College Drive before a proper school was built and opened at Fortfield Park in 1968. During class breaks, children playing in the yard were kept away from the road.

Two older students stood at the sides of the yard to corral the younger ones. When children ran across the invisible line between the sentries, they were roared at to "Get up the yard!" Giddy children shouted the phrase back as a taunt, and it evolved into an all-purpose insult.

Distribution: The first graduates of the school infiltrated secondary schools around Dublin in 1970, carrying the formula with them. The city was rapidly overcome by the phrase.

Culprit: If proper building funds had been available from the start, the language would not have been enriched by this backslap; its genesis was economic. The Minister for Education responsible at the time for school-building funds was Paddy Hillery.

I’ve farted and I can’t get up!

When a person is so old and so powerfully flatulent that it knocks them on their ass and they can’t get up.
This is a most pathetic scenario, I’ve farted and I can’t get up!

I've fallen and I can't get up

A really annoying catchphrase from the late 80's/early 90's that originated from a commercial for a paramedical emergency radio for the elderly. During the commercial, and old lady falls off her walker and in the most pathetic tone of voice possible, utters this phrase into the advertised device.
Before everyone and their mom was screaming "I'm Rick James, bitch" they were screaming "I've fallen and I can't get up" in a sad attempt to be funny and witty.
