Black Chain 

A black chain is more of an underground gold chain. And black chains show pride, strength, and intelligence.

Guy 1- "Whoa look at that guys black chain!"

Guy 2- "He must be really strong I don't want to fuck with him."

Goth Blocked

When seeing a group of one or more goth people prevents you from carrying out your intended activity. Somehow seeing these black clad punks (who usually turn out to be pretty nice people) is enough to deter you from your intended path or destination and so you wander elsewhere to avoid feeling awkward because you are too scared to walk past them, thinking that they might attack you with their shiny pants and throw tubes of black eyeliner at you.

DISCLAIMER: I did not make up "goth blocked" I saw it on a youtube video and thought it would be a worthy addition to Urban Dictionary. Don't sue me!!!! All originality of this phrase I credit to TheRealParis (youtube name). Don't hate me Paris. <3

Dude, I was running a slew of errands and I was going to walk into Target but there were these Goths hanging out right in the entrance so I didn't go in.

I've been Goth Blocked.

the new black 

The new fad, trend, or style of the moment.

Background: Since black is always in style in the fashion industry, saying something is "the new black" means that it is the hottest new thing. This phrase can be used to call out the "coolness" of anything, it's not just limited to the fashion world

"Striptease aerobics is the new black."

"I just love your yellow purse. Yellow is the new black this season."

black knees 

Black knees belong to women who meet random strangers in places of gathering (i.e. restaurant or nightclub) and proceed to give them blowjobs.

Jenny: She was blowing some dude in the bathroom at the club.
Mike: Explains why she in the club with a white dress and black knees.

black sweat 

A black sweat is a sweat worked up during dirty deeds. Most commonly heard in a Prince song, it speaks about harcore love making, and the sweat it brings.

Work up that black sweat.

Penumbra Black Plague 

Possibly the best horror game on the planet working in five hours (unfortunately) of intelligent gameplay and brilliant story accompanied by a feeling of vulnerability as the only thing you can use is the ability to run from the skeletal monsters that _can and will kill you_. Lacking in some texture detail but excelling in every other aspect including but not limited to atmosphere, brilliant soundtrack, admirable voice acting, compelling story, very interactive physics, psychological destruction, and challenging puzzles, this game is simply amazing.

Penumbra Black Plague is the shit man.
