people of light

A phrase used to call out the hypocrisy of people who alter what buzzword they deem to be acceptable to call the black community. It is primarily used to counteract racism against the white community in a lighthearted manner.

Blacko: Yo dawg, I hate wypipo. They be mockin us.
Whitey: We prefer to be called people of light, bigot

crystal light

A flavored powder you add to water to make it taste splendid. Comes in a variety of flavors such as peach, lemonade, grapefruit, rasberry, etc... Most importantly makes a very fine alcoholic drink.

This peach crystal light really frolics with the vodka.

Red light vortex

This occurs most frequently when you are in a hurry or already late to be somewhere. No matter how fast you drive or what roads you take you still get stuck by every red light.

The most frustrating thing that happens is when you are approaching an intersection with a green light and just when you think you finally will catch a break.. the light turns to a quick yellow back to red.

This can be a contributing factor to inducing road rage.

Driver: Alright last call is in 20 mins guys we can make it.

15 mins later......

Passenger 1: Ok this isn't even cool.. we seriously got every red light so far.

Passenger 2: Were officially trapped in the red light vortex.. kiss that tasty cold pitcher of beer goodbye guys...

idiot light

An indicator light or illuminated signal, usually colored red, yellow, or orange, on a vehicle dashboard intended to convey a condition of which the driver should be aware. Most frequently, it indicates a system malfunction or a potentially dangerous condition (e.g., low oil pressure, high coolant temperature). It may be a word or words ("Charge"; "Check Engine") or a symbol which may or may not be readily identifiable.

The derisive term comes from the fact that such lights typically take the place of a gauge, meter or other indicator that can provide more substantive and detailed information. The binary (on/off) nature of the light is considered inferior to an indicator which provides data on the condition, but which requires some interpretive thought by the operator.)

"Get the manual out of the glove box so I can look-up what that idiot light that just came on means."

check engine light

The ultimate cock-block when you A. Need to get your car inspected or B. Need to sell your car. Generally, it means a sensor is tripped that indicates a faulty part, but it usually doesn't affect the overall operation of the car.

Potential Buyer: "So how much do you want for this car?"

You: "I'll take $5000 for it."

Former Potential Buyer: "Wait... the Check Engine Light is on, never mind."

You: "fuck..."

Lighthouse Point

The "mini Palm Beach." A small city on the East coast of South Florida known for its affluent population and low diversity. The typical Lighthouse Point person is in their 50's, already retired, plays squash, has two boats, and spends his free time at the Lighthouse Point yacht club. He is married with a blonde trophy wife, and has two kids who go to prep school.

Contrasts with Boca Raton because of its extremely low Jewish population. LHP could be the WASPiest city in Florida.

Kids tend to either go the preppy route or the surfer route, or a mix of both.

Also notable for its highly attractive female population, rampant cocaine use amongst the youth, and wealthy New Englander's who have summer houses in Lighthouse Point.

Look at that kid with seer-sucker pants, brooks brothers polo, and sperrys. Typical Lighthouse Point brat.
