Rigmarole

A set of confused and meaningless statements.

A long and complicated and confusing procedure; "all that academic rigmarole was a waste of time".

I'm not 100% sure where this term originates, but I've heard it used in Britain and Ireland.
1. "You wouldnt believe the rigmarole I had to go through just to have my credit cards cancelled!"

2. "Oh, not this rigmarole again!"

Suburbia

A bit like my town by the sound of things. A Shitheap. Home of morons, degenerates and sociopaths or just neurotic, bored bastards like me.
See movies such as SubUrbia (1996), The 'Burbs (1989)...

Out

Out is literally the opposite of "in".

In parts of Ireland "out" is also used as a slang term that reinforces the word that came before it. For instance, if a new TV show comes on and you dislike it, you might say "that show was bad out!". If you drink too much and have a hangover you feel "sick out".
1. I like that guy, he's cool out!

2. Yeah, I heard that new CD. Its shit out!
