Sir Carlton's definitions

Shaka zulu

All over town or all over a large geographic area, or a distant location. Used the same way people use driving to or all over timbuktu

I done had to drive all over Shaka Zulu to find the things I needed for....
That doctor I had to see is all the way out to Shaka Zulu.
I love just driving all around Shaka Zulu with no destination, just enjoying the open road and the scenery.

Oonie

The vagina; this dates back at least to 1990, the Golden Girls episode Blanche Delivers in which Sophia comes up with the euphemism oonie.
Not to be confused with Ooni, a brand of portable wood pellet pizza ovensProbably coincidental in that Sophia is Sicilian and Ooni makes a pizza oven, but the brand name has its roots in Africa.

Dorothy: Ma, you know you're really hurting my feelings.

Sophia: Not as much as you hurt my oonie!

Porty

Porta john. A term which is thought to be very recently coined. It sounds like a British slang. However it is Southern in this definition, supposedly originating in Richmond Virginia.

I can't stand using a porty. It smell horrendous. And in summer it's so hot that along with the smell may choke one to death in 30 seconds.

The Big One

A real or imagined heart attack that a person experiences usually suddenly in response to a sudden distress or excitement. Originating from Redd Foxx's character Fred Sanford on the TV show Sanford and Son. Fred would clutch his torso with one hand, and extend his other arm out and usually exclaim as it's written in the example below, or some slight variation.

It's not a far cry from the expression to bite the big one meaning to die.

It's The Big One! Ya hear that, Elizabeth? I'm coming ta join ya honey!

a time or two

Loosely means once or twice. Also expressed as a time or 3, a time or 4. It means that something done happened at least once but could have happened a few, but not many times. Its kind of similar to saying a couple, with couple literally being 2 but it may be 3 or 4, but not many

I've done done that a time or two

Normie

Chiefly an Alcoholics Anonymous expression. A person who does not have a drinking problem. Either they can drink in moderation and never drink in excess or they choose to be teetotalers without having ever developed a drinking problem themselves.

I cannot see how a normie can just stop at one beer.
