coolie

All the Indian Pakistani Bangladeshi types working for KBR in Iraq or Afghanistan. Some are really coolio and dream of the great 7-11 in the sky the USA, some hate the USA cause we pay them $5 a day. The ones in country work their asses off at laundry or cooking, but the ones in the bazaars are real rip off artists, swindling Joes, who miss the great PX in the sky Wal-Mart back home
The coolies in the DEFAC are great but the ones at the bazaar selling bootleg DVDs and trinket are real cocks.

bobo

Short for "bourgeois bohemian" in fact another form of poser... pretending "acting" to be a dirtbag or grunge type, often in ski towns or outdoors activities areas - climbing, wind-surfing, kayaking, etc ... being the most hip, non-capitalist, vegan, supporter of causes. Often found in the hippest places in Latin America, Palestine, Africa, acting like the locals. When they are out of money and when the going gets rough they do not sell their truck or pawn their skis but go to the bank, discretely find their credit card or have their parents bail them out, supply an airline ticket or hospital bill. A covert "trustafarian"
She's not a dirtbag snowborder... she's a DuPont, a bobo...

You wait tables all summer; bobo there goes home to Cape Cod or Palo Alto.

watch this

Something said right before a person does something amazingly stupid.

In the military it takes a quantum leap. with high explosives, high performance aircraft and situations that will get you killed in a heartbeat.

along with "based on my experience" "I've made a decision" "trust me" and "watch this"

It reaches another level if the MFer is smiling, chuckling or laughting.
The most dangerous thing in the US Army is a warrant officer AH-64 Apache pilot chuckling and saying "watch this"
