Are you with me?
We use “are you with me?” to:

Loyal crew by your side.

Yeah, I saved your ass.
The phrase “save someone’s ass” means to help someone else in an important way. It is normally used in casual or informal conversation.
I’m gonna kick your ass because no one messes with my friends.
The phase “kick someone’s ass” means to beat, defeat or dominate someone. It is considered vulgar and is usually used in casual or informal conversation.
I know right
The phrase “I know, right?” is a rhetorical question that is used to express agreement or understanding. It is often used in informal conversation, especially online or through texting. The phrase is typically used after someone has said something that you agree with or that you find surprising or unbelievable.
For example, if someone says “I can’t believe how expensive gas is these days!” you might respond with “I know, right?” to express your agreement. Or, if someone tells you a funny joke, you might say “I know, right?” to show that you found it funny.
