An everyday, unknown face. A civilian is the person infront of you who is obeying the speed limit. A civilian is the fellow at the pizza joint who is looking at you and your friends like you're in the middle of a cocaine deal. A civilian is a person at a party who nobody except like 2 people know, and they may or may not be cock blocking. You can love em or hate em, but you can never get rid of civilians.
I walked into the basketball game, and all the civilians on the bleachers were looking at me because I was in my dress blue uniform.

Get the civilian mug.1) A movie starring Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker.
2) Evening hours when the roads begin to get congested like a fat man's arteries. Usually starts around 4 and ends at 8, reaching total gridlock at 5. Drivers during these hours seem to be more concerned with not letting you get infront of them in lane switches (by speeding up alongside of you) than their own wellbeing. They also don't want to wait more than 3 milliseconds to take a left turn even when there is oncoming traffic. Even if they broke a hundred traffic laws to get there, drivers still seem to obey the speed limit when they are the first car in traffic, while everyone else is tailgating. Argh.

Get the rush hour mug.1) A person who makes loud noises, particularly during either sex or physical exercise.
2) A flash program with a massive shift in volume. It will usually start up low so you have to put your speakers up, then will emit a loud 'scream' literally out of nowhere.

1) I had to put a pillow on her head to keep her from waking up her parents, she was such a screamer.
2) That flash program which plays the song really low backwards is a screamer.

Get the screamer mug.During long road trips, you may come across (or rather, they'll come across you) a lightning rod. It is basically a car which has one goal on the highway... to keep in the triple digits MPH. You'll discover them most likely riding your tail if your in the left lane.
The purpose of a lightning rod is to let them go. Chances are, you aren't obeying the speed limit either and, on a long road trip, you'll want to be pushing around 80. Police fundraisers on the side of the highway will catch this guy first. Lightning rods will eventually leave the highway or disappear into the horizon, and ghost cars might creep up on you.

Get the lightning rod mug.Not to be confused with the lightning rod, and usually involving more than one other car, a speed team is a group of drivers who speed on the left lane of the highway during long road trips. Usually hardened road warriors will know that the more cars that are speeding together, the less likely a state police car will pull them over, as long as they are going at a reasonable speed (80 on a 65 posted).
Called a 'team' because, if a slower float is in the left lane, they'll often all pass it on the right together. Speed teammates rarely even know each other, and more often than not the team will eventually break up when one leaves the highway.

Get the speed team mug.A car in the left lane which is going up to 5 MPH over the posted speed limit on the highway, and has probably started to rack up a car line. Often driven by the elderly, a person on a cell phone, or a soccer mom, floats will rarely switch to the other lane to let traffic pass.

Get the float mug.A line of automobiles, either on the highway or a large main street, which consists of a long stretch of automobiles which are usually tailgating each other. It is very hard to switch into this lane until you let the car line pass, or you manage to get up in front of the float which is causing it.
My exit on the highway was to the left, but a car line had formed in the left lane. This was going to be tough.
