manic pixie dream girl

A female in her 20s who tries to interact with a brooding, loner guy, for she adores him. She acts so cutesy and a little quirky but she believes she was put in this guy's life to change his life and perhaps he will fall for her. She will go to great lengths to please him, showing him the world in her eyes. The guy soon realizes he can't go a day without seeing girl. It gets to a point where she will do absolutely ANYTHING to make his world comfortable, waiting for his requited love and sometimes he ends up taking her for granted. They either fall in love, or the love is unrequited. The Manic Pixie Dream Girl could potentially end up broken hearted. This type of girl was defined by a man who noticed the MPDG behavior in the movie Elizabethtown staring Kirsten Dunst and Orlando Bloom, as well as the film Garden State starring Zach Braff and Natalie Portman.

Ainsley acts like brooding Morgan's manic pixie dream girl.

Squat

UK Slang. Where mostly young people take up residence in a vacant house or building and also the building itself.

By the end of the week, Meredith was brought to the squat by Galen, so Meredith can crash and get his thoughts together while the cops hunted him down.

Yoofs

UK Slang for the word "kids." The colloquial way of saying "Youths."

The old man shook his head after almost being trampled, by the teens running in the opposite direction, singing off-key, laughing nefariously.
"These yoofs...think they own the world..."
