"Surge and Accelerate"? Isn't that what they recalled a bunch of Audis for?
Isn't that what usually happens when grandpas in Florida mean to hit the brakes, but they accidentally hit the accelerator instead and surge forward and mow down innocent people on sidewalks? Just sayin' - I think this is an unfortunate turn of phrase.

1. I think those are both cycles...
...on my Maytag washer.

How certain are we that Junior isn't talking about laundry?

2. It reminds me of "The Sopranos" episode
where Olivia Soprano accidentally ran over her friend. Livvy puts the car in gear (not reverse) and guns it. Her friend went flying onto the hood.
