street squid

Slang for inexperienced motorcycle riders. They begin the riding season but end up splattered on the concrete, like a street squid, before the end of the season.

The idiot on the loud Harley zipped in and out of traffic, oblivious to speed limits and space constraints. Jimmy watched and thought, yep there goes another street squid.

go medieval

From the movie Pulp Fiction, one of the most feared characters stated his henchmen would "go medieval on yo' ass", which basically was a way of saying his men would click out on the men being threatened. To go medieval means to become savagely violent without restraint, similar to how we imagine those in the savage, unrestrained medieval times would respond to someone who had done them wrong.

Don't make me "go medieval on yo' ass!"

time-space continuum

Things and events existing and moving in linear fashion. They move from one place to the next place in logical sequence in time and space. This realm is known as the time-space continuum.

Example 1: Cyberia warps the time-space continuum in that you can read about events out of chronological sequence and from anywhere, at any time on the Internet.

Example 2: The study of quantum physics considers how linear reality really is, calling into question the validity of the perception that all things fall into sequence according to the time-space continuum.

beverly hillbilly

Word origin: from the old TV show, "The Beverly Hillbillies", about a family of rustic hill folk who strike oil on their land and become fabulously wealthy. They "load up the truck and move to Beverly... Hills that is, swimmin' pools, movie stars." The comedy series revolves around how out of place the family is in their mansion.

beverly hillbilly is defined as: 1) a person who is obviously out of their element; 2) a person unable to utilize an object properly, for whatever reason.

Example 1: The pampered white social worker looked like a beverly hillbilly as she climbed the rickety stairs of the tenement building to pay a call on one of her families on caseload.

Example 2: The suburban parents' poor choice of a top end camera for their 12-yr old became apparent in the casual way the boy tossed it around showed his beverly hillbillyism with it.

cube cruising

Similar to cube crawling, but different enough to have a distinct entry. Cube cruising is when a person spends a significant portion of the work day visiting cubes and chit-chatting about any and every thing.

Cube cruisers either have too little work to do, or they simply don't care if their low productivity causes a bottleneck in the office.

Jill began her cube cruising circuit at approximately 8:15 every morning.

bovine delivery

Bovine delivery is a euphemism for have a cow. Everyone knows that in this day and age of the spin that every negative thing must be given a positive spin. Thanks to The Shrub and his merry band of spin doctors for making it obligatory to create a euphemism for have a cow.

When James Frey learned of the investigative expose done by The Smoking Gun he experienced bovine delivery.

trick out

To trick out is to put your girlfriend out on the streets, turning tricks. Frequent tactic of low-life sludge who get nice girls hooked on crack. Once they're hooked tricking them out is the next step. The sludge then has dual trade.

Antwan said, "I'm gwon to trick out that fine biotch standing over there once I got my game togetha."
