ground up 

An underground rap/hip-hop group out of Philadelphia remaking rap from the ground up. while all the rappers in the mainstream are putting on fake personas these guys have managed to keep their shit legit and real and brought back the skill that rap used to take before it hit the mainstream. They are also one of the rare rap/ hip-hop groups to have really good music by Bij Links on top of the witty rapping of Azar and Malakai instead of the lame bass heavy loops normally played as the background beat. Even if you aren't in to rap or hip-hop, these guys will still get your highest respect. "The Only Movement in Motion"

Built from the ground up 

When a studio promotes their game as "built from the ground up" but the game is a copy paste downgrade in reality.

Turn 10: Forza Motorsport is built from the ground up
*Players get the game*
The game: A complete shitshow that's somehow the worst Forza in the Forza franchise.

Built from the ground up 

False advertising and lying to your fans

Turn 10: Forza Motorsport is built from the ground up for this generation.
Players: Okay, then why did you use the same 2005 Nissan S15 model from Forza Motorsport 1?
Turn 10: Well everything is built from the ground up though.
Players: Well if it's built from the ground up, why does the game look worse than Forza Motorsport 7?
Turn 10: *Leaves*

Ground swallow me up 

Ground swallow me up or GSMU is a phrase which sums up the overall desire to escape an embarrasing or awkward situation.

While the request for a time-machine might seem a more dignified approach to being swallowed up by the ground which seems a cruel fate. GSMU is more fitting to identify feelings of desperation and guilt.

ground to make up for 

Something the husband said when I told him how I looked like a boy before my boobs grew and no one here wants to tell me what it means.

Me: I looked like a boy. But now I don’t.
Him: No wonder you’re so proud of them. You have a lot of ground to make up for.
