brat

A relatively recent development in the BDSM community, a brat is a woman who suggests she is ripe for a submissive sexual encounter, but diliberately and flagrantly torment prospective doms. Brats often dress like young girls, sport Catholic school uniforms or dress like Bratz dolls. Often they band in packs and suggest there is immense pleasure available from the group for the right (and lucky) dominant male. Males must "prove" their dominance to the satisfaction of the group. Most serious BDSM practioners put a premium on total honesty and trust and thus the brat phenomenom has not been welcomed by all.

The seductive brat in the corner were trying to cocktease Sir Robert but he wasn't buying it.

side hustle

Sideline that brings in cash; something other than your main job. Maybe playing weekend gigs or life coaching. SELLING AMWAY IS NOT A SIDE HUSTLE -- it's just a stupid way to alienate your friends.

When start up your own business you probably want to get some side hustle going. Maybe a small low stress consulting job on how to get a side hustle going.

Ali Baba

Unfortunate term among Iraq War GIs to describe any Iraqi bad guy: looter, thief, insurgent, terrorist, or suspect.

The use of "Ali Baba" is probably not helping us win the war for Hearts and Minds in Iraq.
