square

(1) Unexciting, unadventurous, mainstream or dull. Generally used in describing a person with such attributes or who plays it safe. Historically, derived from a person whose goal in life is to have three "squares" a day (see definition (3) below), a roof over his head, a respectable job, a house, 2.5 kids, etc. Became a hip/popular expression of derision of the mainstream in the beat generation.

(2) Proper, decent, straightforward, acceptable, even.

(3) A regular and decent meal.

(1) Naw, he's a square; he won't dance (do anything exciting), he'll just shoot crows (go home).

(2) Hey man, thanks for takin' care of that, you're all square with me now.

(3) Dack is joining the army; at least he gets a dry bunk and three squares a day.

square

Opposite of groovy. Unlike a round, long-playing vinyl record which has one playable groove on each side, a square record would not track a tone arm and cannot be played. There is no music and no soul in a square record. Something or something square just isn't with it, and lacks fun and liveliness.

Man, you don't dig this music? You are like really square.
