An offensive and derogatory term refering to native americans. Comes from when the government paid for each 'indian' one killed. Instead of carrying the bodies they would take the scalps to prove they had murdered a native american.
When plural the name of a NFL team from Washington DC
It seems there is a too common belief that the word redskin is not offensive so I dare those who believe that to go try that word out on a native american person and see their reaction.

At a casino on a reservation a customer refered to one of the native american employees as redskin. The customer was shot by that employee. So obviously it is offensive.

Get the redskin mug.A double reed is neccessary for playing bassoon or oboe. It's the part that you blow on to make the sound that is then carried throughout the instument. It is usually made of two pieces of bamboo that are tied together at the base, but I have seen some made of plastic.
Serious musicians make their own double reeds, but beginners and the like can just buy them from Ted Brown or other music store.
You must soak them before playing the instument, 'cus if you don't it's REALLY hard to sound good.

Get the Reedley mug.Truly the best ciggarette out there. Amazing flavor. There's nothing like sitting back, relaxing, and having yourself a marb red. The smoke surrounds you and you get this head rush, it's like a drug and you spend a few minutes in heaven. Good quality, but considered harsh. Only for the real smokers. If you can't handle the marb reds, gtfo.
"Hey, dude. Need a smoke, I'll lend you a newport"
"Nah, man. I don't smoke bitch cigs, marlboro reds all the way"

Get the Marlboro Reds mug.Amazing guy with Clark Kent (Superman) good looks. Reeds are very respectful to women, and always take care of the people they love. When Reeds fall in love, they give their hearts completely away to the girl that was lucky enough to catch their eye. Reeds never pressure their significant other into anything, and always take the time to tell her how much he loves her and how great she makes him feel. Being extremely attractive, sensitive, and different from all other guys, Reeds have their pick of girls, but they only need the love of one.
