BG: I've been playing a video game where your character is a ghost who travels around various scenes by hopping from one inanimate object to the next. In one scene, there's a wide area with no available objects, so to cross it, you have to jump to a police officer's baton and have him walk you to the next object.
Getting frustrated with how long it was taking the officer in question to come back across the screen, I offered a little verbal encouragement:
"Come over here, Mr. Man; I need to ride on your nightstick!"
