To add to some of the fantastic definitions, Liming is part of the culture of Trinidad and Tobago, where people come together to “lime”.
In a gathering of this nature which takes place anytime at all and every Friday evening, questions
like “how is the family?” “are the kids doing well?” are not the usual subject of conversation, while it is touch upon, liming is better phrased as banter, funny replies to questions, individuals make light about
politics and current social issues and even dabble on who is "horning"who, what is going on politically without it becoming a serious subject; alchoholic drinks are sometimes involved and funny replies, you say or listen to chatter on a variety of social subjects including
politics that are very entertaining and relevant to the subject at hand,” picong” It is a way we live and socially accept each other. There is a "
girls lime" a "boys lime" a "
river lime" a "
birthday lime" any kind of lime is possible. People would "lime" anytime. It is a social coming together of a posse where almost anyone is easily invited. Come lime with
us!
