Leverette

Upbringing that has made you think that your shit dont stink. Mainly found in men. Leverette's can talk and talk and talk but when it actually happens the only thing known to do by a Leverette is "lets fuck him up". Most Leverette's are EXTREMELY attractive. That is what drawls you in. They have the looks and can definitely talk you out of your pants. Leverette's tend to have extreme outbursts of anger and say things that only other Leverette's will understand.

Girl: William why the fuck would you even say that.
Boy: Its a Leverette thang.

open letter

A method of writing in which an insecure attention whore tries to make it seem as though they care about the person to whom they're writing the letter when really they're just trying to draw attention to themselves.

"I'd send a closed letter, but I'm an attention whore so I'm sending an open letter. Fame through someone else, here I come!"
