Why don't we all chip in 10 dollarsto hirea hit manto get you when you sleep? (said sarcastically)
On top of this, last week she threw a party for her 18th birthday and asked us all to chip in five pounds for the drinks.

PITCH IN
We all need to pitch in 2 dollarstofixKaitlin's phone because that H key is pissing me off .

Everyone will pitch in 5 dollars and we'll buy an island somewhere and we can party with glow sticks and Nutella forever on our island.

GO SPLITS ON
This English weather SUCKS! Let's all go splits ona Greek Island!
If she didn't offer to go splits on the 1st or 2nd date,there wouldn't be a 3rd, IMO.
I have a car so we could possibly go splits ongas or, if our timingworks out to be different, drive separately.
to suck – być do bani
a date – randka
IMO – in my opinion
works out to be different – okaże się inny
