Gene pick

A stupid, mainstream movie, that panders to the lowest common denominator and takes little thought to appreciate.

Jeff - "I just watched 'Employee of the Month' with Dane Cook and Jessica Simpson"

Josh - "Ugh....sounds like a 'Gene pick'."

finger picking

Finger picking is a technique that can be used when playing the gutiar. Instead of using a guitar pick, you use your fingers to pluck the strings.


..and if you understand some music terminology:
As there is only a treble cleff for guitar notation UNLESS it is a bass guitar, when using the finger picking technique you can 'imitate' bass AND treble because you can pluck more than one string at a time. You can then play a song with rhythm and melody, as opposed to what you would usually be restricted to playing with a regular guitar pick (chords, and solos).

"I can play california dreaming finger picking style on my new Ibanez acoustic"

thin pick

1. Used to describe annoying scene kids that suck at playing musical instruments, guitar in particular.

2. Mall rats that spend their nights hanging out in music stores, annoying everyone around them.

3. A more subtle way to describe fags.

No one likes thin guitar picks.

These thin picks are annoying the shit out of me. They suck.

Yeah let's kick these fags out of here!

Docker Picking

A Yorkshire, England term meaning; collecting cigarette tab ends to have when one is out of tobacco.

My girlfriend was raging mad, acting like some crazy, caged wild animal because she hadn't had a cig all day; I was down to a few pence in change, so i went docker picking and came back with enough tobacco to last her until midnight when my dole went in and i could purchase a pack of proper cigs at the all night garage.

Picking Clams

Another word for masturbation for a girl

I caught my daughter picking clams the other day.
