Miners on strike 

Named after the industrial action 1984-85 (The Miners Strike) when Britain was brought to it's knees by miners solidarity and the phrase 'One out, all out'.

A particularly agressive bout of diarrhoea that reduces time spent in the toilet by 50%.
Feeling rough today Dougal.
Had a few beers last night and I've got the miners on strike. Excuse me.......got to dash....

Call in a beer strike on our position 

Introducing beer to a get together--like a baby shower, graduation party or sunday brunch--where nobody else is drinking and alcohol would be considered completely inappropriate. A beer strike will usually bring intense scorn from those around you' including your girlfriend, parents, inlaws, etc., but is the only thing that will get you through the rest of the event alive.
Gentlemen, the conversation at this baby shower has grown intolerable. I believe it’s time to "call in a beer strike on our position"

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
