assi-ten

Anything that goes way beyond assinine; something really, really stupid (usually to describe something someone has done)
Woman: "What was he thinking? I can't believe he thought making that calendar of the guys at work was a good idea- and with the boss naked on the last page! How assinine!!"

Man: "No, that's what I call assi-ten!"

flophouse

Any house/apartment/frat house/trailer/etc. which is used for individuals to crash (sleep, chill, hang out, lurk, etc.) for a period of time. In order to "crash", one must not actually live there (e.g. have their name on the lease, own said flophouse, etc.). Flophouses are typically used by college students, drug addicts, transients, vagrants, or other unsavory characters.

A flophouse may also be the home owned by the parents of a college student, who after being away at college, wishes to live as if he/she is still at college (e.g. staying out all night, returning just to crash at mom and dad's house, then leaving again), rather than conforming to the pre-college rules.
Example #1
Dude: (Talking to someone passed out face first on the floor of his college apartment) Hey man, who the hell are you? What do you think this is, a flophouse??

Bro: Sorry dude, I must have passed out for a minute.

Example #2
Mom: Where have you BEEN for the last three days? You come home just to sleep?? What do you think this is, a flophouse??!!

Son: What's your problem? I'm an adult now!

grippers

pants worn by males which are so tight that they (uncomfortably) grip the nuts- hence, grippers. Can be found on certain punks, emos, goths, or other lame, nonstylin individuals.
Dude, you need to get rid of those grippers for real- no one wants to see your whole wang, bro!

gimmage

A marketing ploy used to trick people, usually in order to make them believe that they need or must have a particular product- to be cool, healthy, happy, etc. Comes from the combination of 'gimmick' and 'image', because a gimmage is usually used when a company wants to change their product's image in order to sell more of it. Gimmages have been used for a long time, but even more so recently.
Products like Sobe's Lifewater and Vitamin Water...the gimmage is making you believe that these products are good for you and will make you more healthy- in fact you need them or you just won't get enough vitamins or have enough "life" in you.

Gatorade- forever marketed as a product to enhance your performance in sports or highly-active situations. Now they have Gatorade Tiger, because it will make you play like Tiger woods, and the whole 'G' renaming, meant to give Gatorade some street cred and make it more popular in the hood- to compete with Kool Aid and Little Hugs.

Anything sold in an infomercial.

Red Bull, other highly-caffeinated drinks, 5 Hour Energy...because one just won't have enough energy for anything without it. Our society is hectic today, but marketers have led us to believe that we NEED caffeine, and lots of it, in order to survive.

McDonald's, with trying to market themselves as healthy...they're still not.

Career Purgatory

When you're stuck in a loser job with no opportunity for advancement or a raise and the job is not your idea of what you want to do for a career.
Man, I graduated from college 10 years ago and am STILL in grad school. Maybe in another 2 years I'll finally have a career, but for now I just need to pay the bills. Career purgatory is so depressing!

snake

Anyone who takes or steals anything from another person- whether it be knowingly or unknowingly. The snakee typically gets pretty pissed off at the aforementioned snake, unless the snaked item is of little to no significance.
1) In skateboarding, one can "snake" another by taking a run when it was another's turn, or by (stupidly) skating in front of that person just as they're about to do a trick. This is not good, particularly if it happens multiple times. May be overlooked if done by a young kid who can't skate and/or doesn't know any better.

Skater 1 (to his boy): Dude, if that kid snakes me one more time, he's gonna get this board shot right up his butt!!

Skater 2: I feel you man, that kid is getting on my nerves too!

2) "Butting" or going in front of someone else either in any kind of line (e.g. at the movies, the DMV, fast food restaurant, etc.). Snaking of this sort can make one extremely ticked off!

Snakee: Hey man, you totally just snaked my place in line- the back of the line is over there (points).

(bigger, badder) Snake: What you gonna do about it, beeaattcchh???

(smaller, weaker) Snake: Oh shit man, my bad- I didn't even see you there (walks to the back of the line).

3) One can "snake" another's girl or guy, some food, their music, movies, clothes, or just about anything else. Again, dependent on the item being snaked, reactions of snakees vary.

Snake: Dude, I'm snaking a slice of that pizza, I'm starving bro!

Snakee: It's all good...just don't grab another, or I'll have to take this pizza slicer to your fingers!

t-rash

Trash, white trash, ghetto people...often loud, obnoxious, unintelligent, using improper English, and causing some kind of a ruckus or scene. Ideally this term is said with a New York accent, from where it originated.
Bob: I can't believe my girl cheated on me man!

Tony: Fuck that girl, bro, she's T-rash!!
