Downy Oshun 

n. In Baltimoron, this refers to Ocean City, MD, and would be literally translated as "down to the ocean." Ocean City, MD is a very popular vacation destination, and a source of much regional culture. For example, 19th Street is named "Johnny Unitas Way," honoring the great Baltimore Colts quarterback of the 1960s and 1970s, who wore the number 19.

Doen'cha knoe, hon, we wint downy oshun, but't took frevr t'git uvr dat dang Baybrij!

Translation: My friend of the opposite sex, we traveled to Ocean City, MD, but it took an exasperatingly inordinate amount of time to cross the Chesapeake Bay using the Chesapeake Bay Bridge.

Note: Traffic for the Chesapeake Bay Bridge can be backed up for 15 miles on summer weekends.

nice downs 

Nice downs is used when people say/do something as dumb and unthoughtful. It could also be used to describe an abysmal and stupid person. The phrase is short for Down syndrome because people with this illness are known to be mentally challenged.

Downstaged 

You have been downstaged when someone in your group is always trying to upstage you and their plans are just not as good as yours.

We could have had back stage passes but Bob downstaged us, now were stuck with the nosebleed seats he bought.

downshifters 

People who had a good professional job and (usually) a house which had significantly increased in value - but then they realised that by selling the house and moving to another (usually rural, far cheaper) area of the country, they could 'downshift' their lives and yet still have a small fortune in the bank + less stress, less work, more time with the family, more money.

See also: downshifting.

I know a couple who downshifted from their £2.1m house in London. She was in teaching, he was an accountant. Now they run a great little art gallery during the summer in the wilds of the Derbyshire Peak District, and just make art and teach their kids for most of the year."
