A new saying has been born tonight, I've seen it all over the internet:
"Rock on, John."

I can't tell you how many places I've seen those three words tonight. Say them out loud. Aren't they satisfying?

Rock on, John.

Works for me.

3. In poetic terms, it's called "assonance"--the repetition of a vowel sound.
