After my Stellar Astronomy and Astrophysics midterm, I decided that for the rest of my undergraduate career I would be a wino who only attends classes in the humanities.

Get the wino mug.
A girl addicted to free wine. While intoxicated a wino will often spend their free time roaming aimlessly around the French country side and hooking up with guys in sleezy Paris hotel rooms. A wino can be identified by wearing a money belt.
Kathryn, are you such a wino because the wine is free or do you actually like the taste?

Woman in name only. Similar to RINO (Republican in Name Only) or DINO (Democrat in Name Only).

This label applies to Women that run on predominantly male-defined agenda. Sarah Palin, Meg Whitman, Sharron Angle and Christine O'Donnell are examples. They can be called WINO's - Women in name only; feminists they are not.
That Sarah is such a WINO... she has larger cohones than John McCain.

'Winos' is old slang for drunks/drunkies.

Wino = singular drunk
Winos = plural drunk

How do I know this? I'm Rick James, bitch!
In the Rick James song "Ghetto Life":

"When I was a young boy
Tenements, slums and corner bums
Playing tag with winos
The only way to have some fun
..."
