The slap someone deserves when they're trying to help but making things worse.
Shawna: "Hey everyone! Bella is single now, so she's dating again if you're interested!"
Bella : "Shawna! What are you doing?!"
Shawna: "I'm helping you out, girl!"
Bella: "Oh. You're so kind, I think you deserve a thank you slap!"
When you send a formal thank you email, receive a response, then feel obligated to say something (especially “thanks again”) one last time.
Dude, do I need to respond to this email or avoid making a thank you sandwich?

Having sex with your sibling while you're pumping your own gas.

1. Earliest use in the neutral sense of speedy in "Dear Mr. Banker", by Nicholas P. Mitchell, published in The Greenville News of January 14th 1950:
"By the way, in spite of the fact that various Greenville bankers have explained to me why it isn’t a good idea, I still wish every bank had at least one teller’s cage reserved for people who want to cash a check or to make an individual deposit. Such transactions require about half a minute, but it is not unusual to wait in line fifteen minutes or more while those who are banking on behalf of business get their requirements met. ... But if we small fry had a “wham, bam, thank you ma’am,” line of our own, we’d all save a lot of time."
The phrase merely referred to suddenness before it was used as a slang for quick sexual intercourses.
2. The earliest occurrence of wham, bam, thank you ma’am with reference to sex is from the review of Ball Four (World Publishing Co. – New York, 1970), by the American baseball player James Alan Bouton, hence 20 years after its first use as an adjective. Bouton's review was published by John Justin Smith in the Star-Gazette (Elmira, New York) of June 10th 1970:
"Bouton says of ball players that they are not, by and large, “the best dates. They prefer wham, bam, thank you, ma’am affairs.”
3. It's used in the military to denote a sudden, forceful effect. Feel free to also use it to denote any sudden, quick action or effect, not just sexual ones. The intended meaning is highly contextual.
"One of the most impressive things in the book is the lightning suddenness with which capital ships destroy one another. Wham! Bam! Thank you ma’am—and there goes a few hundred millions of somebody’s money to Davy Jones’ locker."
A sarcastic thank you to someone who has wronged you. The expression dates to an early 2000's Star Wars related "Thank You George" campaign was started on the internet and quickly spread through science fiction fandom. The campaign centered around a web site that sold "Thank You George" t-shirts and merchandise. The web site turned out to be registered to a game company called Decipher, who had produced a highly successful Star Wars collectible card game between 1995 and 2001, only to have Lucasfilm pull the license in favor of Hasbro toys, who produced a new card game that failed. The campaign seemed to have been started by Decipher as a way to profit from Star Wars without having to pay licensing, and a way to give George Lucas a sarcastic "thank you" after he killed Decipher's product in favor of Hasbro's product that failed.
Still no original editions on Blu-Ray. Thank You George!
It's pretty simple. I say this sometimes. He was not a perfect human, but he's brought me joy many times, He just did it again.
As Jenny was learning how to play the guitar, she knew that "Across the Universe" was something she wanted to know. When she got to the second chorus she began to weep at the sheer beauty of how "nothing's gonna change her world." She set her guitar down and declared, "Thank you, John Lennon."
