A word used to describe someone who is strong and doesn’t take shit from others. Also can be used to describe your literal spine when you are feeling a certain way (usually empowered or sad/emotional).

For example: someone who claps back when someone else is being rude or when someone is feeling emotional about their favorite celeb.

1. Let's say tomorrow you got access to a time machine, and went back in time (sumlike 1930's-60's... when black american's were treated like gum or shit), and you did nothing about it and watched. Even doe err tang in ya tells ya "u a lil bitch for doing nothing." At this point, it would be right to say that you have no spine.

2. "...So, is that what you call a getaway?
Tell me what you got away with
Cause I've seen more spine in jellyfish
I've seen more guts in eleven-year-old kids
Have another drink and drive yourself home
I hope there's ice on all the roads..."

From the song "Seventy Times 7" by Brand New, in which the singer expresses disgust with the Spongebob pencil for not having enough courage to draw himself a gf. Lil bitch. Now he's a drunkin' ass d-bag for driving drunk, and endangering all of us.

Thought I was going to let the singer off the hook? Nah, he a lil b too. He should've called the p, but he too much a lil b and is ignorant about pear-pressure.
