!!Comin' In Hot!!

So, I've been using this term-"coming in hot!" for a while now. One could even say that it has become and integral part of my everyday lingo. I'm not going to go so far as to say that I invented this phrase, but I'm definitely a huge promoter of its everyday usage. The phrase can be usefull in many situations-such as when an airplane that you may be riding in is about to touch down, just shout it out. Especially when you seem to be going a little too fast for comfort. -Coming in Hot!-

Another situation that this phrase comes in handy is when you're driving a car, and trying to sneak through traffic into a parking space, or just an open driveway. Just yell it out the window, that way, not only do the oncoming cars know that you are fast approaching but so do any wayward pedestrians. Add a pause for emphasis... -Coming in (pause) Hot!-

Well, I've found a new arena for my favorite catch phrase, and this arena is the one called CycloCross . It adds an air of importance to any situation, denoting to other riders that someone near them may be close to riding out of control. In this situation it is a phych-out maneuver (this can be denoted by the high pitched nervous and immediate sound in the yeller's voice), but when yelled from the audience it can actually be used as a warning, as in "look out other audience members, that guy is going to break the tape and pummel into the crowd.

In any case, use it. Use it often, and use it well. Join the revolution.

-!!!Coming in Hot!!!-

Alas, I am curious, what does "Coming in Hot!" mean to you?
