the up way

A method for ensuring the most disappointingly mediocre outcome for any endeavor

things were going much better than expected, and then we remembered that by applying the UP way we could justify our pointless existence in perpetuity

the UP way

first gear = be sympathetic (offer phony apology), second gear = cya, third gear = place blame on others

When micro met with his underling, he used the UP way® and shift gears in record time!

the up and over

the process of male self-felatio where one lies completely on their back and flips their legs back over their head. Requires extreme flexibility and perhaps a few surgically removed ribs.

Jim went to Pilates five days a week with the hope that we would gain enough flexibility to self-administer the up and over one day. Never again would he need a girlfriend.

keep it on the up

1) Doing what society expects of you; being a proper ciizen; acting properly. Using socially acceptable behavior. Another way to say "walk the straight and narrow path"; being a "proper"citizen; straight laced.

2) The alternate name for "Troublemaker", by Weezer, by dumbasses because they only really listen to the chorus.

"Troublemaker" Exerpt, 2nd verse:

I'm growin' out my hair,

I'm movin' up to Cherokee,

I'm gonna be a rockstar,

And you will go ta bed with me,

'Cause I can't work a job,

Like any other slob,

Punchin' in and punchin' out
and suckin-up to "Bob".

Marryin' a bi-otch,

Havin' seven ki-ods,

Givin' up and growin' old,

And hopin' there's a God.

I'm a troublemaker,

Never been a faker.

Doin' things my own way

And never givin' up

I'm a troublemaker,

Not a doubletaker.

I don't have the patience to keep it on the up.
