What is We can?
Something that two people in a relationship say after they break up.
This rarely even happens, saying it is just a formality. Sorry.
Jeremy: I'm sorry, but it's not working out anymore. We can still be friends tho.
Madeline: Yeah, sure, I'd love that.

Mac: Dude, that babe is way too hot for you.
(puts rolled up beer mat between teeth and assumes Austrian accent)
Dutch: If it bleeds, we can kill it.

The collective exhalation of relief following the guilty verdicts in the trial of Derek Chauvin for the murder of George Floyd. Floyd's last words, I can't breathe, had become the mantra of injustice in a country where police killings of unarmed Black men are routine and have gone largely unpunished.
As the three verdicts were read - guilty - guilty - guilty - millions of Americans, across the spectrum of race, ethnicity and economic status, suddenly felt WE CAN BREATHE.
We can - definition
I, I will be king
And you, you will be queen
Though nothing will drive them away
We can beat them, just for one day
We can be heroes, just for one day

We can
Barack Obama's new catch phrase which has somehow been made into a song, of course by the Black Eyed Peas (featuring numerous other celebrities), cause they're SO politically conscious. The song is meant to be inspiring, yes people working together, we'll change the world, etcetera, etcetera, except it really leaves me wondering whether william or whatever his fucking name is (I know there are some fucking periods somewhere in it) has any ear for music, because the song sounds like crap, and the Obama voiceover kills any possibility of a person actually enjoying the experience of listening to it, because (and I'm not naming any names) certain types of peas just can't make music.
In spanish yes we can translates as si se puede, but the song still sucks orangutan tits.
We can
A term used by contractors, fabricators or other people in any service industry which translates into: "We CAN'T do it -or- It won't be what we promised -or- We'll never get it done on time (if at all) -or- Once your deposit check clears, you won't see us again until you take us to small claims court".
This term is usually said quickly and excitedly 'WeCanDoIt!!!' ; and used throughout the United States, but is very prevalent in the Southern California region.
Customer: "I need this cabinet completed in two week's time."
SoCal Fabrication Company: "We Can Do It!!"

Customer: "John Smith, the guy whose check you cashed 10 minutes after we met 3 weeks ago. Is my cabinet done?"
SoCal Fabrication Company: "Oh ya, ya, ya... we're doing that next"
Customer: "urgggg"
SoCal Fabrication Company: “Dude chill! We Can Do It!”
