A term used to describe the African-American accent. It is derived from the southern accent of the United States. It originated from the 16th through to the 19th centuries as Africans were transported to the colonies in North and South America to be sold as slaves. In North America, the sounds of the original African languages merged with the sounds of the southerners who taught the slaves to speak English. The result was an African-American accent which survives to this day. "HOO-bid-uh HAH-bid-uh" is primarily spoken when African-Americans gather together informally, but it is avoided by African-Americans when speaking as a news anchor or in other professional situations.
"Hoobiduh hahbiduh" includes the following words and phrases. . . . . . . WORDS: (still = STEAL; will = WHEEL; bed = BAY-id; red = RAY-id; boil = BALL; tripping = TRIPPIN'; ask = AXE; on = AWN; toll = TOE; police = PO-lease; fifty = FITty; poor = PO) . . . . . . . PHRASES: (Hell no! = HAIL no!; My baby's mother = My BABY momma; He does = He DO; She has been running = She BEEN RUNNIN'; He often works on Tuesdays = He BE WORKIN' Tuesdays; I didn't go anywhere = I didn't go NOWHERE; You're crazy = YOU crazy; She's my sister = SHE my SISTA; She writes poetry = She WRITE poetry; Why aren't they going? = Why THEY AIN'T GOIN'?; You all = Y'ALL)

A "pornam" is a porn amateur. (pronounced PORN-am) A "pornam" is someone who is photographed or videoed being nude or having sex, but they are not famous like a very small number of porn stars.
In past decades, porn was almost exclusively acted by a very small number of porn stars. There were very few AMATEUR photos, films or videos. The reason was that there was NO PLACE where amateurs could LEGALLY get photographic film developed. Today, since there are digital cameras, you don't need to get FILM developed: videos and images are instantly available and once it gets on the Internet, it stays there forever. (The reason is that you can make an infinite number of copies without losing quality.)
There are still a few porn stars who are famous presently, but the millions of other people you see in X-rated photos and videos on the internet are AMATEUR porn actors or models, or "pornams." They are not stars.

"Flash rob" is a term used to describe the troubling new trend beginning in the first decade of the 21st century where many people suddenly rush into a store simultaneously and quickly steal merchandise, then flee. "Flash robs" are organized via telecommunications, social media, or viral e-mails, similar to "flash mobs." Flash robs are similar to flash mobs, except flash robs are specifically for the purpose of robbing a store of its merchandise. . . . . . . . {A "flash mob" is a group of people who assemble suddenly in a public place, perform an unusual and sometimes seemingly pointless act for a brief time, then disperse, often for the purposes of entertainment and/or satire. Flash mobs are organized via telecommunications, social media, or viral e-mails. The term "flash mob", coined in 2003, is generally not applied to events and performances organized for the purposes of politics (such as protests), commercial advertisement, publicity stunts that involve public relation firms, or paid professionals}.
News anchor: "There has been an increase in flash robs recently and the police are working hard to stop this trend."
Store owner: "Those damn kids flash-robbed me last night and stole about $1000 of merchandise in less than 60 seconds!"

"Baby Boomer resentment" is a term used to describe the growing feeling of resentment among "Millennials" that they are working to pay for the Social Security and Medicare of Baby Boomers, but they are paying into a system that will be bankrupt and gone by the time they are old enough to retire and have the same benefits. They feel they will be robbed. . . . . . . {The Millennial Generation (or Millennials), also known as Generation Y, describes the demographic group following Generation X. Since there are no exact dates (as of 2011) for when the Millennial Generation starts and ends, commentators have used birth dates ranging somewhere from the mid-1970s to the early 2000s. Members of this generation are also called Echo Boomers, due to the significant increase in birth rates through the 1980s and into the 1990s, and because many of them are children of Baby Boomers}. . . . . . . {A Baby Boomer is a person who was born during the demographic Post-World War II baby boom, from 1946 to 1964}.
Minnennial speaking: "I have 'Baby Boomer resentment' because I'm going to be working all of my life to pay for millions of retired Baby Boomers and when I am old enough to retire there won't be any Social Security or Medicare for me."

An intra-laugh is what a person does when they have a laugh to themselves.
It is that quiet, internal laugh that one has when something is funny.
(In the future, if people like this word that I've coined, and people become familiar with it, the spelling may change to "intralaugh.")
