Open-ended 

In poker, four cards in a row that need either one higher or lower to complete a straight. (_,6,7,8,9,_)

Opposite of gut-shot (four out of five cards in a row that are missing the center number).

Open-ended straight draws have better odds because there are eight cards that can make your straight. Gut-shots are less likely to suceed because there are only four cards that can help you.

I was chip leader and open-ended. I didn't want the guy to double up, but he was like all-in with the blind, so I called it and caught the 5 on the river. Busted his pocket rockets.

swing a dead cat

Silly way of relating the quantity or frequency of something in terms of whether you would hit one if you swung a dead cat.

social 

Among college drinkers, if a person at a party announces a "Social!", it is a command that everyone within earshot take a large drink of alcohol in unison, to consume the drinks quickly and get the crowd as drunk as possible. Seasoned partiers will yell "Social!" in return to help announce and time the act.

"I just turned 20 and I have a big test on Monday -- we are gonna get so fucking fucked up tonight. Social!"
(Crowd screams "Social!" and goes quiet as dozens of people chug their beverages.)
