The manner of speech from someone from the American South. The intonation, word connection, and pronunciation are combined in a distinctive way.

houseless

For someone who lives on the streets, they don't need a home to live in. They don't need a roof over their head. Their home is the streets.

"I met a guy that refuses to stay in a shelter, and he doesn't mind living on the streets. He's staying at a campsite down the road. He's not really homeless, he's houseless."

Way

An emphatic YES. When something that seems impossible, actually DID happen. The counter expression to No Way.

Person 1: "Those people survived the Ebola Virus? No Way!"

Person 2: "Way."

sign twirling

Dramatic movement of a small sign by someone hired to attract motorists to a specific place of business. The best sign twirlers are very flamboyant and really grab your attention.

I went to the new restaurant's grand opening only because of the outstanding sign twirling at the intersection.

type thing

(Agree with the first def, but want to embellish.

Type thing is an expression of normalizing things, suggesting that everything is "as usual."

(Added to the end of a word or phrase as if it is a punctuation mark).

My anger management instructor said "type thing" after almost everything she said. It made me feel more comfortable in class.

Examples:

"The restrooms are located just outside this meeting room, type thing."

"From this course, you will learn helpful new tools, type thing."

Other examples:

"My car was dirty so I went to the car wash, type thing."

"Let's go out tonight for dinner and a movie, type thing."
