Lion

The notion that any adage or proverb will become instantly improved if you substitute one of the original words with "lion," as created by J. Jacques in his web comic, Questionable Content.
People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw lions

The enemy of my enemy is my lion

I would do anything for lion, but I wouldn't do that.

Speak softly and carry a big lion

Measure twice, lion once

Don't look a gift lion in the mouth (This actually makes more sense then the original saying)

Snoop Lion

1. The newest and dumbest idea (as of 2012) by Calvin Broadus to synergize his 3 loves; Whoring himself out to the recording industry, making copius amounts of money off people who have no other drive than to do drugs and him the poverty line as low as possible, and finally to further mastering the art of song writing with as little talent as possible.

2. An offensive attempt by the aforementioned Broadus to move away from a stagnating rap career and into a genre based largely on a religion he has shown no mastery of or belief in except for tenets relating to drug use and hatred of Caucasians. The latter tenet was largely abandoned as the religion evolved from infancy. Something Broadus himself still struggles to do.
Q: Did you hear that new Snoop Lion CD?

A: Yep, it was shit. It was so bad Bob Marley's ghost killed himself. This is OK, but people get mad at white rappers for having no credibility. FML!

Lion Paw

Originally a regional term from the suburbs of South London, 'Lion Paw' is a greeting as well as a mark of respect used amoungst peers.

Though originally coined by 'Kids of Saaf Lond.' - 'Lion Paw' was adopted by a couple of Hospitality workers in the Midlands in the late 90's and has since spread through thier own peers and close associates and continues to grow today.

Often said whilst accompanied by 'The Paw' - a handshake which, at its most basic, has each of the two 'participents' palms pressed to one another (fingers pointed skywards in a Native American 'How' style). Both hands turn approx 15 degrees anticlock-wise against each other and the fingers of each persons hand fold to grip the others pad on the right of thier hand.

This 'handshake' can (and has been) evolved and developed into more intricate styles though every 'true' interpretation maintains the key 'Paw' part of the hand shake.
"Coast to coast, shore to shore - you gotta keep it real with the Lion Paw" - Confuscious

"Paw that s**t up!!" - often said with elation in appreciation of something a comrade has said / done / made refrence to.

"You know the score, Lion Paw"

"Flash me..." (or) "Bust me..." - "...a Paw" - by way of a request for a 'Paw' to celebrate / acknowledge a moment of triumph or when reuniting with a comrade after time apart.

'Lion Paw' - Said alone this can be interpretted in many ways depending on the context (Similarly to "Forget about it" the Italian Amarican phrase). Can mean any of the following: Well Done / Bravo / Good Times / I know what you mean / You know what I mean / Hello / Goodbye ...and no doubt more than that.

red lion

A complete douche of a Miami Heat fan. Possibly 12 years old, he started following the Heat when they traded for Shaq, but pretends to be a knowledgeable NBA fan. He is also known as having the longest message board signature in the history of the merking internet, complete with incoherent quotes and ramblings.

He was recently OWNED by OrlandoMagic.com message board users after stupidly trying to take all of them on. He was relentlessly pounded for page after page with hilarious pictures and comments. His anger is undoubtedly due to the Magic’s 8 game lead over the Heat a mere 4 weeks into the NBA season

Magic Fans such as Jereth Cutestory, Marc Acres 3:16, DJMase20, Hutchence, Drunk on Mystery, Athena, WPMagic and more, were all in on the action.
