funny papers 

the comics section of the Sunday newspaper.
Give me half the funny papers or die.

Don't even go there.  

Don't try that. Don't bring up that subject. You'll get nowhere with me, by trying the argumentative tactic that you just attempted.
Person #1: Hey, stop drinking my beer!

Person #2: Well, you took a nibble of my chicken diable that time.

Person #1: Don't even go there.

mockolate 

Fake chocolate on "Friends". Monica did a gig as a chef for the mockolate promoters. They wanted mockolate to become the traditional food of Thanksgiving. It bubbled, people made a face when they ate it. Phoebe said it was what evil tasted like.

The company that made it went out of business, but they still paid Monica. That was pretty cool, assuming the check cleared.
Monica: Okay, this is pumpkin pie with mockolate cookie crumb crust. This is mockolate cranberry cake, and these are mockolate chip cookies. Just like the Indians served.

Is it soup yet?  

It means "Are you finished?" or "Is it time?"

Comes from a 1970's Lipton instant soup commercial, notable on several levels. First off, it was a slam against Campbell's which was merely condensed. Lipton did Campbell's one better and removed itself even further from the real stuff, by removing ALL the water and powdering the soup. Only when re-hydrated with boiling water, was it again soup.

So kid's in commercials would ask, "Is it soup yet?"

AND BACK THEN, THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A GOOD THING!!

The fact that it was even more prefab than Campbell's was a selling point!
Wife: I'll be ready to go in a minute?
Husband (a few minutes later): Is it soup yet?
1) one of the triplets who came up from hell to do Azrael's bidding in "Dogma." When they were alive, they were baby-killers. That's why they were in hell.

2) anything having to do with hell.
This sentence doesn't have "stygian" in it.

out of your pay grade 

out of your league, your level of authority or your ability.

To tell someone that they are out of their pay grade is to say that they are flunkies who are in over their head.
1) "Well, detective, there are matters at stake here that are a little bit above your pay grade. No offense."

2) "You're asking questions way out of your pay grade."
