silverlake

Home of the hipsters.

If you're is living in LA, into the Indie Music scene, and you're a male with 2% bodyfat plus unwashed hair, or a female with a mullet and bad hygiene - then this is where you aspire to live.

Silverlake is a relatively expensive place to live for those who work in record stores, coffee shops or book stores. Therefore, not all of them can afford to live in the Motherland of retro garage fashion. Instead, many opt to live in the surrounding areas such as Echo Park or Los Feliz.

The restaurants and bars are mediocre at best in Silverlake when compared to the rest of LA, but a Silverlake resident will rarely leave Silverlake for a meal, a show, clothes, groceries etc. Many do not even realize that LA has beachfront cities/a beach.

Its mostly known for it's hipster music venues - Spaceland, The Echo, and Silverlake Lounge. This is where you are most likely to hear the next new thing that the rest of the country has been deemed 'not cool enough' to know about.

If you've ever seen the movie 'Gimme Shelter', then you already know exactly what 90% of the male population in Silverlake dresses like, per their every day Hipster costumes.

If you've ever seen a female street junkie who needs a bath, but keeps her fashion dedicated to her 80's rock roots, then you've seen 90% of the female population in Silverlake.
Guy in Culver City: Jesus, look how skinny that guy is.

Girl in Culver City: Ah yeah. The Silverlaker.

Guy in Culver City: I bet you could defeat him in the arena of physical combat.

Girl in Culver City: Yes, but I dont want to smell like 'homeless' for the rest of the night.

dominant silverback gorilla

Look at Mike Tyson, a dominant silverback gorilla, one to fear... One to fear. Hell, he even bit off another nigger boxers ear. What do you got to do to get kicked out of boxing? Give him millions and he still rapes miss nigger america, oh I’m sorry Miss black america… And goes to jail, they’ll always revert to their savage jungle ways without fail. Without fail.

silverchair

A great alternative band from Australia, they eleased their first album at ages 15 and up to date have released 4 albums. Silverchair consists of 3 members: Daniel Johns (guitar,vocals), Chis Joannou (bass), and Ben Gillies (drums.
When they just started playing they were more of a nirvana-style grunge band, but since then they have evolved into a band that plays literally any type of rock, heavy or light.

Silver Shower

The act of performing a golden shower, which is urinating on someone, either for sexual pleasure or attempts at humiliation. The difference is that the one who is performing the silver shower is hydrated, causing the urine to be silver instead of gold.
Molly: I thought he was going to treat me like a princess and give me a golden shower today!
Amber: What? Are you kidding me? I thought he always wanted to do that to you!
Molly: Yeah I know! He drank too much water so it ended up being a silver shower.
Amber: Wow. What a jerk.
