gradual-ramp-up-volume greeting

Refers to a non-startling strategy employed whenever you are unable to unobtrusively get someone's attention or make eye-contact with him for whatever reason (maybe he's deep in a book, concentrating hard on a household/carpentry task, or using noisy equipment, and thus he does not look up/around occasionally or hear/observe your presence) and so you start out to say hello by speaking very quietly, and then cautiously raising your voice little-by-little (like some modern-day alarm-clocks do so as to wake you "gently" instead of startling you out of a sound slumber with a full-blast ringer right away) till the previously-oblivious person eventually becomes aware of your proximity and glances up.

I'd wanted to ask my elderly neighbor about my possibly carpooling with him on his grocery-shopping trip the next day, but he was so busy using his riding lawnmower that he never noticed me despite my circling around in front of him several times, so I eventually used the gradual-ramp-up-volume greeting to finally get his attention.

ramp up my dick game

The act of being more of a dick. One may feel compelled to be more of a dick if it's insinuated he is weak, beta, or too polite given the social circumstances.

There is no sexual connotation. Literal dicks and literal ramps are not involved in ramping one's dick game.

I gotta ramp up my dick game for Camsteven because she's been whipping me.
