Yes We Can
Barack Obama's new catch phrase which has somehow been made into a song, of course by the Black Eyed Peas (featuring numerous other celebrities), cause they're SO politically conscious. The song is meant to be inspiring, yes people working together, we'll change the world, etcetera, etcetera, except it really leaves me wondering whether william or whatever his fucking name is (I know there are some fucking periods somewhere in it) has any ear for music, because the song sounds like crap, and the Obama voiceover kills any possibility of a person actually enjoying the experience of listening to it, because (and I'm not naming any names) certain types of peas just can't make music.

In spanish yes we can translates as si se puede, but the song still sucks orangutan tits.

We Can Do It!
A term used by contractors, fabricators or other people in any service industry which translates into: "We CAN'T do it -or- It won't be what we promised -or- We'll never get it done on time (if at all) -or- Once your deposit check clears, you won't see us again until you take us to small claims court".
This term is usually said quickly and excitedly 'WeCanDoIt!!!' ; and used throughout the United States, but is very prevalent in the Southern California region.

Customer: "I need this cabinet completed in two week's time."
SoCal Fabrication Company: "We Can Do It!!"

... 3 weeks later...

Customer: "How come you haven't returned my calls? Is my cabinet done yet?"
SoCal Fabrication Company: "Whoze this now?"
Customer: "John Smith, the guy whose check you cashed 10 minutes after we met 3 weeks ago. Is my cabinet done?"
SoCal Fabrication Company: "Oh ya, ya, ya... we're doing that next"
Customer: "urgggg"
SoCal Fabrication Company: “Dude chill! We Can Do It!”

If It Bleeds, We Can Kill It
Much like Get to da choppa! this is a much quoted line by the character Dutch in the action film Predator.
played by-Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Must be said barely audibly, due to an over sized cigar or sum such stand in prop and a thick Austrian accent.

Can be used in any number of social situations often regarding an overly optimistic and highly unlikely outcome.


Mac: Dude, that babe is way too hot for you.

(puts rolled up beer mat between teeth and assumes Austrian accent)

Dutch: If it bleeds, we can kill it.

We Can Still Be Friends

Yeah, you say that I've hurt you, and your voice is like a prayer. Yeah, well maybe I hurt you sometimes, let's contrast and compare...lift up your shirt, the wound isn't there. I guess that your truth, is just the ghost of your lies...
...Yeah, your kind of truth, darling, is just the ghost of your lies, & I see through them all the time...
