Shallin

A smart, intelligent, beautiful girl, who although has mad potential does not see it in herself. She loves people, and people love her. Popularity is an easy achievement for a Shallin. She is kinda short. A Shallin can basically talk to any guy with no problem, and has a soft spot for people who have great taste in music, clothing, and all around epic views. A Shallin has aspirations such as becoming a musician, studio artist, photographer, or all of the above. Shallin's can become very jealous, very easily. She is very good at giving hugs, and being a sexy beast. Having a Shallin in your life makes you probably the coolest person alive.

"Do you see the fine lady over there?"

"No, what does She look like?"

"The one who's short, has silky dark hair, and looks all around amazing."

"Oh! yeah! She's probably a total Shallin.

shipwreck in shallow water

Taking a shit so large that the upper part of it protrudes out of the water in the bowl. This ususally produces a lot more offensive odors and should be flushed immediately

"Dude, I just took a massive shit. It was like a shipwreck in shallow water!"

“The truth shall set you free”

Actually, this saying is ITSELF one of the LEAST “true” statements of all time… as we are all too painfully aware, “coming clean” to the powers-that-be (i.e., parents, teachers, policemen, etc.) seldom if ever actually gains or maintains your “freedom”; in fact, usually the **exact opposite** occurs whenever you bravely/penitently reveal your shameful secrets like this --- rather than their extending any significant “charity” (i.e., mercy or forgiveness) to you in response to your trustingly/naively-admitted revelations of past transgressions, these hypocritical and out-of-touch-with-reality sadists generally do everything they can to CURTAIL your freedom and otherwise make you as miserable as possible, such as giving you an extended time-out, grounding you for an outrageously-long period, making you stay in from recess, throwing you in the slammer for a few days, and so on. So unless there is some serious injustice that your silence is maintaining (such as that an innocent person is being blamed/punished for something that you did), it’s usually wise to follow Will Roger’s advice to “never pass up a good chance to shut up”… contrary to what these authority-figures may try to assure you, they generally do **not** “have your best interests at heart”… about all they actually wanna do is try to soothe their **own** perpetually-gnawing consciences by being overly hard on anyone under their care!

My conscience was pricking me after hearing the local minister preaching about “the truth shall set you free”, and so like the total dumba** that I am, I went to the police station and admitted to the desk-sergeant about my having swiped a few candy-bars and a couple bottles of soda from the local Circle-K over the past six months; rather than just smiling and praising me for “being a good boy” to be so honest, though, the officer merely slapped da cuffs on me and made me cool my heels in jail for 48 hours! Talk about a letdown --- he didn’t even seem to care about my protests that he was blatantly going against what the preacher had just said was supposed to happen when we admit our sins! I think I’ll sue that minister for misrepresentation and deceitful speech --- I shoulda merely kept my big mouth shut, just as I always have in the past regarding stuff like this! And then he wonders why he has such a hard time gaining or keeping church-members!

Shell

The concluding exclamation in a conversation or argument whereby one person's fact, argument point or humiliating revelation will be proven untrue or ridiculous, rendering them in a state of embarrassment.

It can be also used as closure in an exchange of purposely misleading information solely to provoke gullibility.

The derivation comes from the phrase, having 'egg on your face' meaning to suffer embarrassment. Shell, would indicate ultimate embarrassment; having the egg AND the shell on your face, eventually being shortened to just Shell.

Also, Get your Shells, Get Your Shellings, Shellings and Shell on you.

The past tense would be Shelled or Shelled out.

This phrase is commonly used in South Manchester, UK

A - I had five pints last night.
B - No you didn't.
A - Yes I did.
B - John, how many pints did A have last night
John - Two
B (to A) - Hahaha! Shell.

A - Have you seen the moon tonight?
B - Yes, Professor, It's a Waxing Crescent
A - Hahaha! No it's not you fucking idiot. It's a Waning Gibbous. Shell!

A - There's your mum.
B - Where?
A - Over there, sucking your brother off. Shell
