Get the Gription mug.A type of realism, usually invoked by films and documentary. Strangely
enough, "gritty realism" is only perceptible to media and film critics and the term is hardly ever used by anyone else. In fact no-one but film and tv critics ever use the term.

Get the nitty gritty mug.Grip tape 6 up, 1 down love it hate it
Grip tape is an adhesive backed friction-surfaced material usually attached to the deck of a skateboard or longboard to give the rider more friction to control the board. It is sometimes used decoratively, since it can come in many different styles and colors.
Grip tape comes as rough sheets similar to adhesive-backed sandpaper. The grade and size of grit varies by company and manufacture method.
Application:
To apply grip tape, one first cuts a section large enough to suit the respective deck from a large roll. It's fairly common practice to cut a line of grip tape out just in front of the back bolts to help distinguish the front and back of the board (the nose and the tail, respectively). Often a skateboarder will cut a design or text inside of the grip tape, so that when applied the naked wood will be visible in a desired shape against the rest of the tape. After removing any lacquer so the grip tape actually sticks, you remove the smooth backing to expose the adhesive, one lays the tape onto the top side of the deck; (it is advisable to remove any trucks or old grip from the board as a new layer will render mounting hardware inaccessible and will peel from an older sheet).
If done carelessly small air pockets can become trapped between wood and the tape. During skate sessions these are prone to tear open, ripping the tape partially off of the board. There are various methods to prevent or remove bubbles. Techniques include carefully applying the tape from anterior to posterior end of the deck, popping the bubbles with a sharp instrument, or by applying pressure and pushing the air off the edge of the deck.
More recently, Mechanical Grip Tape Co. has begun offering MechGrip, a new type of grip tape. It combines multiple different colored pieces to a create a design on a single sheet. It applies just like regular grip tape, and you don't lose grip because there is no paint used.
Many grip tape companies exist, including Jessup, Mechanical, Mob, Shortys (Black Magic), FKD, Speed Tape, True Grit and PUSH Griptape

Men who venture into these tough tunnels often are met with much friction and a gritty, sandpaper-like feeling during intercourse. Often producing open woulds and sores on the head and shaft of the cock, but produce a kind of accomplishment on the part of the conquerer of this cheese-grater like trophy.

Ricky Milton was gonna get him his first hooker with his birthday money he got from his mom. When he finally got naked and inserted into his new birthday present he was greeted with a the GRIT SLIT from hell. Being the non-quitter he is, he was determined to ride Sandpaper Sally to the end. So he pumped and pumped until his bone exploded all over it. The next few weeks he spent pissing blood and peeling scabs.
