The action of one forcibly grabbing someone else’s face and smearing their hand across the said face or in some cases the eye. This action is used to generallyhumiliate the lankee and show the dominance and superiority of the lanker. There are varying degrees of a lank ranging from the gentle eye smear to the violent dual hand multiple swipes. A lank can be performed by sneaking up on the lankee or face to face.
“Aw man you just got lanked!”
“It’s alright I’ll lank him back so hard he’ll have stretch marks on his face.”
Typically describes a loser who can always make you smile no matter what the topic. Not to be confused with a ruhtard, although a "lank" and a "ruhtard" have very similar personalities. The word originated from Bolton, Ontario a small town full of italians and one silly serbian :)
