urban surfing

not holding on to anything while riding the subway train, when the train turns, stops, goes etc. you get jerked around and have to "surf" to maintain balance

derived from the natural position your body takes in order to maintain an upright position

can be both purposeful or accidental (e.g. children are often urban surfing for fun, while adults are forced to urban surf when the trains packed)
The other day these two kids almost knocked me over because they were urban surfing from 110th to 96th. Nobody can survive those rickety turns when the train cuts through the park!

The ride to Coney Island was so long that we were urban surfing just to pass the time.

I put in a definition for "arvo" but I spelled it "avro". When it made word of the day, everyone knew I was an urban dick.

Urban Runoff

1. The disgusting water that flows into the ocean after a rain storm. Urban runoff is nasty and polluted water that gains momentum in urban cities then makes its way to the ocean. It will most likely get you sick if swallowed, and should be avoided at all costs. Surfing or other ocean sports are usually avoided after urban runoff for fear of getting some kind of disease, infection or other illness.
