Nuke the fridge is a colloquialism used to refer to the moment in a film series that is so incredible that it lessens the excitement of subsequent scenes that rely on more understated action or suspense, and it becomes apparent that a certain installment is not as good as a previous installments, due to ridiculous or low quality storylines, events or characters.
The term comes from the film Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, in which, near the start of the movie, Harrison Ford's character survives a nuclear detonation by climbing into a kitchen fridge, which is then blown hundreds of feet through the sky whilst the town disintegrates. He then emerges from the fridge with no apparent injury. Later in the movie, the audience is expected to fear for his safety in a normal fistfight.
Fans of the Indiana Jones series found the absurdity of this event in the film to be the best example of the lower quality of this installment in the series, and thus coined the phrase, "nuke the fridge".
The phrase is also a reference to the phrase "jump the shark", which has the same meaning, only applied to a television series instead of a film series.
This phrase is not in common use.
"Star Wars didn't really nuke the fridge until Jar Jar Binks was introduced."
"Peter Parker dancing around the bar in Spider-Man 3? Kinda nukes the fridge!"
"The Godfather: Part III nukes the fridge."
"Gremlins 2 more or less nuked the fridge."

When you fart in the fridge and the fridge keeps your fart fresh until the next time it is opened.
I had the broccoli farts last night but I started to go nose blind to them, so I had to nuke the fridge for later.

1. A secret storage place for illegal nuclear weapons or nuke technology.
2. A nuclear weapons development facility that is purposely kept hidden from IAEA inspectors.
2. Iran's secret nuke plant beneath the "holy" city of Qum, which was disclosed by U.S. President Obama at the United Nations in September 2009.
Using satellite imagery and espionage, we located Iran's secret Nuke Crib in a set of tunnels near Qum. They put the facility there to make it harder to bomb because of possible collateral damage to the ancient Qum mosques.

A very large shit usually taken after eating any type of food that is shit-inducing. A bathroom nuke is the deadliest of all shits in that when a person has a bathroom nuke the whole area must be decontaminated for the next 48 hours.
I went to the bathroom today,opened a stall,and there was a bathroom nuke everywhere.
Basically, someone making a youtube video about someone that did something wrong, and somehow cancelling them. The thumbnail is always with the Youtuber's face cropped to a picture of an explosion. The videos are around 15-60 minutes.
"Hey guys, today we are gonna content nuke PewDiePie for saying the n word!"

When after you roll a blunt that is too wet and don't want to use a bic lighter to dry it, you decide to place the blunt in the microwave for 15 seconds to dry it out.
Stoner Joe: "Naw, my blunt was wet one time so I nuke the blunt for acouple seconds and it was crispier then anything I could do with a bic."
Mary Jane: "Why would you smoke a crispy blunt?"
Stoner Joe: "I decided it would be faster to dry it with a microwave then dry it with my lighter, plus now I don't waste lighter fluid."
