a non-word. It arose from media haze in 1989, during the "Central Park Jogger" case. It supposedly means marauding in search of ultra-violence, but the media made it sound like it was already urban slang, when it was not. The word did not exist till the jogger thing.

ANYWAY, the youths who were supposedly "wilding" were all innocent anyway. The whole thing really stank, big time.

"Wilding" is a non-word.

Wilding

1. (V.) - Pronounced "Why-uh-lean" the act of of Wilding involves any racy activity that exhibits a lack of wisdom or any common sense. It is any foolish mannerisms always lacking seriousness of any and all societal responsibilities. These acts of wilding can either be interpreted with disdain or acceptance depending on the pretentiousness of any observers of said Wilding.

2. (V.) To wild.

Me and the boys had consumed enough klonopin to relax all of our inhibitions and go wilding all around the neighborhood, chucking eggs at store windows and kicking kittens.
