Kid next door banging on our front door - hard - then legging it. Multiple times. Additional gears ground for doing it when I have food poisoning.

Classic game. 

 

The only issue is what do people call it?! Loads of different names for it I've heard over the years... 

 

Knockdown run

Knock door run

Knock knock ginger

Cherry knock

Knock dash

Yeah, the humour kind of goes when it’s your next door neighbour and he knows you know it’s him, and you’ve asked him to stop multiple times.

I'm pretty sure that increases the humour for him. 

 

You need to be on standby with some water bombs or something to do in him next time

At least the kids are running off now. A few years ago, some youth knocked at my dad's door and just nonchalantly walked back up the garden path sticking the V and giving my dad a mouthful.

People that use the term “lean in”

when they are pitching to you.

 

”I think we could really lean into this opportunity..”

 

Just annoying and seems to be used more by big 4, consultants or investment banks - even more so London based.
