We try to see how many times we can use Bad Religion quotes undetected sometimes.

more work crap.

"on the countdown" = < 1 hour till you can leave work for the day.

"taking red"/"seeing red" = leave work unplanned, or sick (it shows up red in our system)

"visiting my grandfather" = using sick time that's been in your bank for x number of years (thus becoming grandfathered time)

Me and my friends frequently yell "Suggest soup",
because once we were in subway, and we saw that on the backs of the menu and info signs they have on the counter that they had hints like "Suggest soup!"
We also swear profusely for no apparent reason.

Friends:
"You do and you'll clean it up."
Translation: "You just asked a really long complicated/stupid question wherein the listener suffered loss of attention span and cannot answer it until you shorten/summarize."

Work:
"Pretend you don't know where we're going and nevermind that we're in a handbasket."
Translation: "Yes, I know it's fucked up, but the upper echelons are making us do it this way, so for the sake of your job and everyone else's sanity do it this way, anyway."

KOTE = kiss on the elbow

a good friend and i were talking online one night, and i was pretty intoxicated (i can't remember if she was, too). when wrapping up our conversation for the night, we were joking around with all the LOL/LMAO/aol-speak, and i attempted to say "KOTC" to her, but- being drunk- i said "KOTE" instead. she asked me if i just kissed her elbow and, well, several years later, we still end our online conversations this way.

Being drunk while internetting isn't a good idea. Look at how Hacker Network ended up.

"Okay, 'fess up, who divided by zero?"

Sometimes said for no other reason than to make each other laugh while confusing others (which is always good!), but usually said when confusion and chaos is afoot.
