Folk On!

A greeting, one folk musician to another or possibly one who listens to folk music (Any kind), folk rock (Such as Hoven Droven) or folk metal (Such as Finntroll or Korpiklaani).

If someone should greet you by saying "Folk On!" You should always reply by saying "Folk You Too!"

The hand sign which should always accompany the expression is similar to the one for Metal \m/ but with only one finger held down, the ring finger. Should look something like this: \n|/

Folk musician no. 1: "Dude, how long have you been playing? You're awesome! Folk on!"

Folk Musician no. 2: Thanks dude, Folk You Too!

ex. 2
*Guy listens to Hoven Droven*
guy no. 1 (standing by): Dude, is that Hoven Droven you're listening to? Folk on, bro!
guy no. 2: Folk you too.

Forever Over Latin Kings

folks

This word is on the rise mostly because politicians and people fearing being politically incorrect use it as a replacement for "those people" or just "people". But it essentially confers the same meaning. It refers to "the other" and any class of people the speaker is referring to except him/herself. Thus it is ironic the term used as an abbreviation for the inclusive and mostly quaint "Kinfolk" word now stands as doublespeak for identifying a group of people with whom the speaker has no desire for affiliation.

"Folks are having a hard time out there making a living."- any politician, pundit or otherwise self-important, and paid person commenting about persons decidedly NOT him or her.
