Playing Defense

When someone actively interrupts, blocks, or derails another person’s attempt to flirt, rizz, or joke their way into someone’s heart. Usually done in group settings or livestreams, this is the playful art of stopping your friend from “cooking.” You’re not protecting anyone from danger—you’re protecting them from success.

It’s like being a romantic goalie: your entire job is to stop their shot from landing.

“I was trying to talk to her at the party, but Chris kept playing defense like I owed him rent.”

“Lacy always plays defense when Marlon starts rizzing—it’s like she trains for it.”

“Bro stop playing defense and let me cook.”

Passion Play

A decision made based on passion instead of logic, typically used as gambling slang.

I should have known better than to bet on TCU, but it was a passion play.

Van Play

When BK and his roommates drink craft beer and play house in a windowless van.

It's 7PM—time for our van play! Go get the wig. I already have the chocolate peanut butter stout.

playing Willy Wonka

1. to be in bed with several people in a platonic way, a-la the grandparents in the 1971 film "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory".
2. to collude in an overly friendly way with one or more individuals who are either nonproductive or disingenuous.

1. "We all had taken some molly at the party and decided to listen to some music and play Willy Wonka together."
2. "Look, man, I'm gonna need more money because I'm not playing Willy Wonka with you mother fuckers."
