(v.) To burn homages, memorials, flags, or other memorabilia celebrating the the failed secessionary war, waged by traitors calling them selves The Confederate States of America.

To Sherman, or Shermaning, is a gerund derived from the proper noun Sherman, a reference to William Tecumseh Sherman. General Sherman was a military leader on the Union side of the American Civil War who became famous for liberating Atlanta. His strategy of "hard war" consisted of pervasive civilian property destruction and burning of supplies to cripple any support the civil infrastructure could provide for pro-slavery forces.

A slang term for illegal hallucinogenic mushrooms (aka "shrooms" or "magic mushrooms"). Often used as a code word for telephone conversations or conversations in public settings where talk of illegal activities could get one in trouble.

In such conversations Sherman is often referred to as a person, such as saying "is Sherman around?" to ask a dealer if he/she currently has any shrooms available for purchase.
