Gentilification

The process by which an established, traditionally Jewish neighborhood changes demographically due to an influx of non-Jewish young urban hipsters.
A classic example of gentilification is the displacement of Hasidic Jewish residents and/or cultural influence from the Williamsburg area of Brooklyn as a wave of young edgy new residents and visitors has taken hold.

Gentlemen, start your engines!

"The tradition of the pre-race singing of "Back Home Again in Indiana" goes back to 1946, the first race after the track was closed four years for World War II and the first under the ownership of Tony Hulman. The Hulman era also ushered in the tradition of one of the most famous commands in sports, "Gentlemen, start your engines."

Wisconsin Gentleman

A classy, helpful man from the great Badger state. The Wisconsin Gentleman is always willing to pitch in to help friends, acquaintances and fellows he has just met. You can count on him to have jumper cables when your battery is dead. He can start a campfire on the first try. He won't complain when his local tavern is out of Old Fashioned mix, as he will enjoy a brandy and Pepsi almost as much. He may not be the smartest man in the group, and style isn't his strong suit. He's as comfortable in blue jeans and a bolo tie as he is in blue jeans and no tie at all. Look for him wearing his trademark confident smirk under a haircut that can only be described as "business in the front, party in the back." The ladies love the Wisconsin Gentleman, although they can't tell you exactly the appeal. You will always have a good time when a Wisconsin Gentleman is around.
Hans: "I arrived at this campsite without a tent."
Zack: "You can sleep in my tent. I set it up, but I was kind of planning on sleeping in my truck anyway."
Hans: "You, sir, are a true Wisconsin Gentleman."

Gentleman's Peek

A customary act performed at the urinal where one gentleman "peeks" over the partition to have a look at the other man's genitals. In no way is this a gay, just a nice gentleman's gesture to acknowledge a fellow man's package.
Matt: "Dude did you just look at my dick, your so gay."

Randy: "Relax man it was just a gentleman's peek."

Matt:"Oh...ok, no worries."
