you can say down if you'd like, and it would mean the same thing :) but saying "up" is probably more positive and optimistic. (as opposed to saying, "hey man, whats going down?" :)

It's a slang term and means to step up to a challenge; to toughen up; to make something happen, as opposed to just bitching about it; taking charge of a situation. The feminine variation of "cowboy up."\n\nFor example:\n\nMaria: My boyfriend treats me like shi*, but I think I'd be alone without him.\n\nJoanie: It's time to cowgirl up and leave his sorry as$.\n\nP.S. Cowgirl up or shut up! lol

it is not a word and has no definition. Maybe you have spelled it wrong, in which case try looking it up in wikipedia.org and urbandictionary.com if you're having trouble.

The passage around a word or phrase, which helps to define its meaning.

The correct spelling is touche (with accent over the e').  Literally it means (in french)" you touched me/you got me".  Originally it came from fencing/sword fighting.  A fencer says this when his opponent scores a point by making contact with the point of his sword so as to alert his opponent that that the opponent got him.  These days it means, basically, " you got me" used when someone makes a point that is valid and frequently insulting/devaluing to the recipient.  For example, say Bob is a heavy drinker and says to Bill, his friend who is a smoker, "smoking is bad for your lungs".  Bill responds with, "drinking is bad for your liver".  Bob's response to this might well be,"touche"

Words mean what people want them to mean.  Bogus means fake, but when I was a teen, it also meant cool.  No word has inherent value other than the value the listener assigns to them.  That's what makes communicating so difficult.  Not everything someone hears is what the speaker intends to say.  Awful and awesome used to mean the same thing.

I think there is a little different connotation. If I am "up for something" it means I'm excited about doing it. If I am "down for something" it means I'm cool about doing it, it's okay with me, but that does not necessarily imply enthusiasm.
