Pull the shades

The act of lowering the window shades so people walking by outside can't see you masturbating.

Has become synonymous with the act of masturbating, to where simply saying you "pulled the shades" means you rubbed one out.

College Guy 1: Hey man, you wanna go get some food?
College Guy 2: I can't right now.
College Guy 1: Why the fuck not?
College Guy 2: Because I'm about to pull the shades, man!!

dick in the shade

To out-alpha someone. To do something that makes someone else's action (which was until then thought of as manly) look less impressive.

A: I've fixed the radio
B: I've built this plasma screen TV!
C to D : Well that put his dick in the shade.

The Shade Room

A website for black (on rare occasions, Latin and even more rare, white) and mostly American millenials go to spread gossip and insults at the posted topic or, more often, at each other. They typically use emojis to express their content or discontent at said subject or in rely to another reply. The words "nigga" and "koon" are used frequently by these young blacks. Usually, they are used in a derogatory manner, as to add salt to a wound they believe they inflicted with a previous comment. One easily loses brain cells with the topics and subsequent comments. The Shade Room is occupied by these children who have "the latest" updates on ebonics. God forbid you don't agree with the masses on a certain topic. They will gang up on you, post insults and say things like "nigga shut yo koon ass up!". You can thank America for that...

Dude 1: did you see the replies these kids left in response to my post on The Shade Room?

Me: Nope. What?

Dude 1: read this (he shows me the article about Drake in black face. Dude 1 posted that he's tired of the racial shit. First response is from a young black man: "nigga shut yo koon ass up!").

Me: what, are you shocked or something?? That's the only way they know how to respond.

The Shades

'the shades' is what you call police/guards in north cork, Ireland.
Maybe people use it elsewhere in Ireland too but I do not know.

ben: look, there's the shades!
john: useless pricks!

on the shady

Committing acts, usually frowned upon or being something you wouldn't express outright to friends and acquaintances.

Hidden and not in plain sight. Kept secretive and between individuals. Avoiding deterioration of character and their images.
Invokes large quantities of trust between individuals to not break their bond and trust.

James was always the go-to guy for whenever Craig wanted something on the shady. Like nude photos or a blowjob.

Batting in the shade

To be disoriented. Term is derived from baseball, when shadows covering the field make it difficult for batters to gauge the speed of pitches.

My friend was totally batting in the shade when he was trying to order a drink after he spilled the last one all over the bartender.

When I woke up in that guy's bed, trying to find my clothes on the floor was like batting in the shade.
