Breaking the BYU Honor Code 

Sex.

So named for the February 2010 dismissal of Brandon Davies from the BYU basketball team, less than a month before the NCAA tournament, for "breaking the BYU honor code."

After a brief period of inquiry, the media was able to determine that his infraction was not criminal in nature (the most typical reason a collegiate athlete would be kicked off a team), but because he had had consensual sex with his girlfriend. BYU's honor code forbids students from having premarital sex and instructs them to "live a chaste and virtuous life."
James:
Sup dude, you wanna come over and play Call of Duty?

Josh:
Nah man, Jessica's coming over. We're gonna be Breaking the BYU Honor Code, IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.
