mezcal

A Mexican liquor that is close cousin to the more famous Tequila. Mezcal is usually stronger, and is known for it's trademark worm which is placed in the bottle. The worm's preservation in the bottle is, according to legend, a sign of high proof in the liquor. Many fraternities believe that eating the worm (which, unlike the liquid it's found in, is relatively harmless) is a right of passage. High quality brands of Mezcal rarely carry the worm.
You aren't a true binge drinker until you've drank the Mezcal and eaten the worm.

silhouette

At night, a car that usually has a dark paint job, and no headlights on. It can literally come out of nowhere, as it is nothing but a silhouette of a vehicle.
I nearly got rammed by that silhouette when I was trying to make a left at midnight... stupid drunks.

1918

A now obselete insult used by fans of the New York Yankees. Prior to the 2004 World Series, the Red Sox had not won a World Series since 1918. Some say that the Red Sox trading Babe Ruth so that the owner could fund a broadway play was the cause of a curse, which ended the Red Sox dynasty of the early 20th century, and would cause them to lose when they DID reach the World Series. The same people who thought up this 'curse' crap also wear tinfoil hats to protect against government mind control satellites.

Unfortunately for Yankees fans, they will have to think up a more unique insult to cheer at Red Sox-Yankees games at the Stadium, because with the departure of Pedro Martinez, the 'Whos Your Daddy' chant has lost it's meaning.
Yankees Fan: 1918! 1918!

Red Sox Fan: 2004! 2004! The year we won again, and the Yankees performed the biggest choke in the history of sports!

Yankees Fan: DOH! Oh well, you won't win next year since The Boss is going to cake over our multi-million dollar roster with an even MORE multi-million dollar roster, further ruining what little chemistry our all-star team has!

lex bubble

A Lexus model SC, usually referring to the 01 and up models, the SC430. It has a convertible top, navigation, and backseats which can fit luggage and midgets. The top is a mechanical hardcover similar to that on the new Mercedes-Benz SL-class.

Under the hood is what you'd expect from Lexus, a versatile but underpowered engine. The SC in particular features a V8 which gets about 300 HP. It'll last you much longer than a European import, and won't go as nearly as hard on gas (for a V8 that is), but unless you can do some serious tuning, don't expect to beat anything more than a BMW or Benz V6.

suprise car

A car with no working brake lights (including the ones in the windshield too). When this car comes to a stop, it may suprise you, especially if the driver is a hard braker.

Sadly, sometimes hard braking is intentional if the driver knows his brake lights are out. If you rear end a car, you are always at fault, no matter what.
I kept an eye on the suprise car infront of me, I think the shady foreigner inside was trying to get a cheap screwjob.

lane shield

On the highway, with more congested (but not traffic jam) hours with lots of cars, a lane shield is the car hovering next to you while you are trying to get into their lane. Sometimes this is even intentional by the driver because they feel you may be trying to cut them off. Usually they will tailgate the vehicle in front of them so that you have to brake hard or speed up infront of them both to get into their lane.
I missed my exit because of that stupid lane shield in the pick up truck.

Terrible Towel

A yellow towel that Pittsburgh Steelers fans wave during games. It is also used to wipe away the tears after their fluke of a team gets crushed by the New England Patriots.
Thousands of Pittsburgh Steelers fans used their terrible towels as hankchiefs after Roethlisberger threw another interception which Harrison promptly ran down the field for a touchdown.
