"Are you enjoying your meal?" "Don't mention the war."

Don't get it twisted

Don't get the wrong idea.

Don't get it twisted:

Do not get it twisted. Do not gamble. Do not start. Gambling is entertainment and entertainment only. You won't break even. You won't win. You won't do any of that. You understand? You will only go into debt and ruin your fucking life. I do this cause I fucking love it. I do it all the time. It's entertainment for people who can afford it. And that's it. YOU WILL LOSE. I'm losing. Do you understand? I AM DOWN MILLIONS

Brown don't frown

This refers to the fact that dark-skinned people generally look younger than their age. Similar to the phrase "Black don't crack."

ball don't lie

A phrase commonly used by professional basketball player Rasheed Wallace; once famously yelled by coach Flip Saunders.

"Ball don't lie" is said when a player misses one, two or all three of his free throws after a questionable (read as: bullshit) foul call is made by an official. The ball is, essentially, the unbiased judge who will not reward the player by going in if the apparent foul was indeed bullshit.

*Andrew Bogut locks arms with Rasheed Wallace and trips over his own feet, prompting a foul call from the referee*

Rasheed: That's BULLSHIT, man!

*Andrew Bogut toes the line and proceeds to miss his first free throw*

Rasheed: BALL DON'T LIE!

*Bogut then attempts a second free throw and misses again*

Rasheed: BALL DON'T LIE, DAMNIT!

Don't bullshit a bullshitter

The words of wisdom received when a person tries to deceive someone who is good at deceiving people.

So I told my dad "I drove your car to the party and was drinking, but my friend who wasn't drinking drove your car home." My dad said, "Son, I'm a used car salesman, Don't bullshit a bullshitter."

Don't Buy IS-7

When a freaking 183 shell lands on your IS-7 and ammorack it.

Some random tank in battle: *shoots and ammoracks your IS-7*
Anggael: "Don't Buy IS-7!"

Don't give a monkeys

I don't care about it.

'Hey, how did he get that sandwich?'
'I don't give a monkeys how he got it. I'm off to the pub.'
