Looky Lou

A gawker or rubbernecker that stairs at disasters, accidents or people in the process of misfortune. For example there is a car accident on a street and a looky lou (or looky loose) will ride by, slow down and turn thier head to check out the scene. A looky lou will also be one of those people that are always there to see fire fighters or EMTs in action when they are in thier neighborhood.

See all those looky lous checking out those fire fighters fighting that house fire.

Tri Met

Tri Met is a bus and light rail transit system of the Portland Oregon metro area.

Tri Met is great for getting around inside Portland city limits, but service really sucks in the suburbs of Beaverton, Tigard, Tualatin and Hillsboro. Especially if you have to commute to and from work from places like Portland to a suburb or suburb to suburb.

FTRA

Freight Train Riders of America.

Probley to the most mysterious gang and hardest to track in the United States. The FTRA started in Montana during the mid seventies buy a bunch of white racist alcahloic speed freaks in a bar. They are a bunch of train hoppin hobos who move methamphetemines along the rail lines. They have been known to intimidate and kill other train hoppin hobos and homeless people in homeless camps. The FTRA could be responsible for some 50 plus unsolved murders along the rail lines in the United States.

Members of the FTRA have been spotted in all lower 48 states, but operate mainly west of the Mississippi river. Where ever there are railroad tracks members of the FTRA could be or have been there.

The FTRA are some mean motherfuckers. For people who like to hop trains around the country, all I can say is; beware.

street family

A street family is a group of homeless teenagers. They average in age from 12 to 22 years old. A street family will have a so called "father" or "mother" figure who is (or both) head of the pack. A street family has a code amongst thiers that "everything that is yours is also ours" and if you don't hand it over your gonna get fucked up or possibly killed. If you are in a street family and you lie or snitch to the group, you will be killed. Members of a street family will hustle, steal, prostitute or sell dope in order to survive. Street family looks somewhat more colorful and diverse than a group of gutter punks and are not as smart too. Some street family groups look like townies that came out of the sewer.

Back in 2003 in Portland Oregon. A 22 year old retarded woman befriended a street family. The street family later killed her by stabbhing her and setting her on fire along the east banks of the Willamette river. The reason why she was killed is that she was suspected of spreading rumors that one of the members was doing a little prostitution.

1950s father

A 1950s father is a dad who is not involved with thier child or children, even though they all live under the same roof. A 1950s father does not play, spend time or is emotionally involved with thier child. A 1950s father is typically stoic and distant to ones child, and are typically work-a-holics.

My friend's dad is not really involved in his life. He is what you call a 1950s father.
