Most likely if it's "406" on tshirt, it means a telephone area code, so person is from Montana.
Less likely, and somewhat dated, it's from Zombieland, a 2009 American post-apocalyptic horror comedy film. The main actor lives in an apartment complex, and has a crush on a woman in apartment 406. She turns into a zombie, and his first encounter with a zombie. He eventually killed her with the lid the tank of his toilet.
Very unlikely it's "406" the error code returned by an Internet server meaning Not Acceptable.

Get the 406mug. "Hip pocketed" means keeping anything around for easy access.
A technician may keep a Swiss Army knife in their hip pocket, just in case.
It does imply the person carrying the thing has complete control of it, so if someone's in you hip pocket, it means they are in complete control of another person.
It's become popular in Hollywood for an agent to "hip pocket" an aspiring actor or writer.
The talent may say an agent is "hip pocketing" them. It's not the best or optimal professional relation, but as they say "something is better than nothing."
A producer sends a script to an agent, if the agent doesn't have a client that fits the role, he may give a "hip pocketed" actor the script, and a verbal guarantee that the script was authorized by the producer.
For a writer, it is reversed. You informally give an agents scripts. If a producer asks for a particular idea, the agent may give the producer the writer's script.
If the actor gets the role or the writer sells his script, they sign paperwork and become a client. If not, the agent may continue "hip pocketing" you, sticking to verbal agreements only.

Get the hip pocketmug. An insult coined by democratic candidate Michael Bloomberg in a series of tweet exchanges between himself and President Donald Trump in 2020. Both are from New York.
Michael combines two insults. A carnival barker is an employee in cheap showy clothes, "barks" (yells) to attract patrons. He is usually position in a stand in front of decrepit attractions, such as freak shows and erotic dance shows.
"Clown" is just added as a typical New York put-down.

@realDonaldTrump
- we know many of the same people in NY. Behind your back they laugh at you & call you a carnival barking clown. They know you inherited a fortune & squandered it with stupid deals and incompetence.
I have the record & the resources to defeat you. And I will.

Get the lamb lickermug. It's a cliche that defense lawyers signal their testifying clients they are giving a bad answer by coughing.
When a client starts giving bad but usually truthful answers, their lawyer may start coughing harder and harder to create a cough break.
It's so common that judges will warn defense lawyers about a cough break.

Donald Trump's chief of staff Mick Mulvaney used a cough break to signal Trump "hey, shut up about possibly releasing your tax returns."

Get the cough breakmug. Combination of the drug Zanax/Xanax and Grandpa. It's an old guy who looks good. Simalar to "a silver fox", but more street cool.
Coined by late night host Stephen Colbert, when talking about "Faceapp", a dodgy Russian phone app which creates an aged version from any photo.

The biggest trend buzz this week is the social media craze "FaceApp." You upload a photo of yourself and it shows you what you'd look like way older. Everyone is doing it, including me. Got to say "Not bad. Hello Zandpa."
Now this is the only fun thing to happen this week, so of course there's a nefarious dark side...
Summary: Russians own all your personal information on your phone legally forever.

Get the zandpamug. The slang term “16” (also spelled sixteen) is a noun which is used by a lot of musicians, writers, and rappers to represent a 16 bars in a verse. When rappers talk about spitting a “hot 16” or “16 bars” they are referring to a verse, which sometimes is also over and under 16 bars.
