A slang phrase that has potential to be useful. However, it is overused by moronic skinheads and Nazis, who contradict themselves with everything they preach! Usually a person who will use this phrase will also talk about how much they hate Jews, Hippies, and Druggies. They are too fucking retarded to realize what a drug is. They don't see how they contradict themselves when they consume their mass amounts of whiskey yet fuck with stoners.
Stinky motha fuckin skinhead: "Oi oi oi! let's earn our laces by beating the bloody fuck out of this smelly fucking hippie!"
stoner guy: "Don't make me come over there and shove your balls down your hitler loving faggot throat!"
(Stoner does it anyway cuz Hippies hate Nazi pricks just as much)
