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.

urban dick

1. Someone who rushes to put a word on urban dictionary but completely balzes it up, making them look like an absolute moron.

2. Someone who refuses to use a spell checker when typing emails or documents and therefore displays their lack of intelligence to the whole world.
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 oneupmanship

forwarding urban dictionary terms back and forth with a pal, each trying to outdo the other in sending the wittiest or raunchiest term.

Urban Biathlon

Far more accessible than the winter and summer Olympic Biathlons, an Urban Biathlon is riding a bicycle 10 miles, stopping at a batting cage for 20 pitches, and then repeating 4 times, for a total 50 mile ride and possible 100 hits. Lowest time and highest number of hits wins.
My friends and I got drunk on Saturday afternoon and invented the urban biathlon, biking dangerously through traffic, and then hitting things at the local baseball batting cage. I ended up finishing in 3 hours with 70 hits, but my friend Anne won with 2 hours 50 minutes and 71 hits. Suck!
