swayzed

To depart from any given location with rapidity. While the more common term Swayze is thought to originate from a parallel between the street slang Ghost (also meaning departing with rapidity) and the Patrick Swayze film Ghost, it is truly a derivative of the term Swayzed.

The true origins of the term lie with the Swayze film Road House, wherein he plays a bouncer, and its parallel to the street slang Bounce.

Therefore, the Swayzed/Bounce/Road House axis is the true origins for the derivative parallel of Swayze/Ghost.

Imma bounce, hit the road, leave the house -- I'm Swayzed.
