placedrop

(v) To reference a place you've been during a conversation, whether or not it is appropriate, for the purpose of pointing out you've been there. Similar to namedropping, save that the object is to point out that you've been somewhere, not that you were with someone.

Person 1: I'm trying to lay off hard alcohol for a while.
Person 2: Oh, me, too -- ever since I was in Cabo last month, I've been watching what I drink.
Person 3: Way to placedrop Cabo in the conversation.

I like Sean, but he's constantly placedropping Chicago, like he's so cool for having gone there on vacation.

It was about halfway through the conversation that I realized I'd placedropped London six times, not even meaning to bring up my summer there.

droppin' plates

"Droppin' Plates" refers to records, when used by the recording industry. Droppin' a plate means either throwing a record down on a turntable or taunting with gold records. "Dub plates" are commonly used by DJ's as a one-off copy for their own use. Though mostly used in Reggae, Hip-Hop or Dance Hall music, they're used in virtually any genre.

In summary, it means throwing down records.

"Wew Here we go again, get up
A little somethin' for your earhole, get up
baring a part of my soul again, get up
Disturbed in the house, were droppin' plates"
"Gonna fight the war
And use my music as a weapon"

Holy fuck, Tyler thinks hes the shit, dropping plates to every bucket in town. Next thing you know that truckload of killer bitch(crysyal meth) he ripped off from those redneck, inbred, shit eaters from the trailer park on the edge of town will be nearly gone. Then just hours after he smokes the last ounce and pulls his shitty dick out of the mayors' 13 yr old stepdaughter those same buckets will be on the fucking horn to rat his grimy ass out to the cops and pimp out his one armed greatgrandmother for blue jolly ranchers and kibbles and bits! What an idiot! Hes gunna wish he didnt drop plates on their asses!
