Random
A gathering of any number of randoms that centers around the sharing of software. So called because oftentimes the software in question is pirated.
The term borrows heavily on otomatopeia - specifically the use of Arr.
Dude, I scored a cracked version of Photoshop at the R party!
"I agree with you on that subject."
Derived directly from a song by the same name performed by the Temptations, and frequently played on oldies radio stations in the United States. Usage is generally considered bad form, as typically it's anything except an emotion that the person is agreeing with.
When I told Clyde that the best thing for the cash was to be placed overnight in the safe, he said "I second that emotion". I promptly beat him over the head with a stack of one dollar bills.
1) The written representation of the letter W, as might be pronounced with a southern drawl.
2) The nickname for George W.Bush, the 43rd president of the United States of America. Derived from his accent - see 1, above.
If the 23rd letter of the alphabet is "dubya", you might be a redneck.
Also...
1) Dice. Note that this sense is never used singularly - you never roll "a bone", you roll "the bones". Origin unclear - but I suspect it has something to do with certain voodoo in which a practicer would cast bones for fortune telling.
2) Monetary units, usually US dollars. Used for high numbers generally. Origin again unclear here, but possibly alludes to an arm and a leg.
2) Dude, that designer shirt is gonna cost you fifty bones.
Colloquialism: "nothing at all".
Comes from English slang; exact origin is unknown.
"There's nothing in the fridge," said Richard. "Not a sausage."
Modification of the term god damn. Comes from the midwest, as near as I can tell - my grandfather (an Illinois native) used to say it a lot.
Note the term is always used as an adjective, and NEVER as a verb. So you can have (day) a dad gum toll booth attendant, but you don't dad gum the toll booth attendant. The only exception to this rule is that "Dad gummit" is a suitable substitute for "goddammit"
Dad gummit! Where is the dad gum screwdriver?
1) (noun) An object that, while not necessarily originally intended as a weapon (and otherwise bears no resemblance), is used as one. A steak knife, for instance, would not be a shank (and is, as well, a poor ad hoc choice for a weapon), but a screwdriver, heavy duty flashlight, or socket wrench would be.
Origin unknown, but I think it has something to do with home made knives. See also shiv.
2) (verb) To use a shank. (Shanked, past tense)
Jorge was shanked with a screwdriver by Miguel when he failed to pass on his protection money.
