American Basketball Association

A basketball league that existed from 1967 through 1976 until eventually merging with the National Basketball Association or NBA. The American Basketball Association is where the three point shot and slam dunk contest began. Dr. J, Moses Malone, Artis Gilmore, Dan Issel and other great players played in the ABA for teams such as the Denver Nuggets, Indiana Pacers, San Antonio Spurs, New York Nets, Kentucky Colonels, Virginia Squires, Utah Stars, Spirits of St. Louis, San Diego Conquistadors, Oakland Oaks and others. The afro hairstyle was very common in the ABA. The ABA used a red, white and blue ball. Teams from the ABA and NBA played several games against each other and the ABA teams usually won those games. The ABA ceased to exist when it merged with the NBA in 1976.

The American Basketball Association was cooler, and featured better basketball, than the NBA and even college basketball.

Cockblocked By Association

When you can't date, or have sex, with someone because they're the friend of someone you dated, or had sex with. Most commonly experienced when one wants to date one of an ex's friends, but they can't, because they're the friend of their ex.

"-I wanna date Jenny, but she's my ex's best friend, so I can't.
-You my friend, have been cockblocked by association."

Herpes by association

This is a stigma against an individial who hangs out with an unheigenic person. For instance your friend points out to you , ew OMG that guy you are with has herpes on his face! Then they think you will become dirty or infected if you keep hanging around them. Herpes is transmittable so you have to cut the ties! Youll get a terrible reputation hanging around with a herpes kid.

OMG, that Vitale kid has herpes. Don't associate with him or you will have herpes by association!

American Family Association

A euphemistic name conjured up by a notorious group of people climbing up their moral pedastools, insisting that gays are the cause of World War II, justifying atrocites and discrimination of those non-christian, poor or Native American, and supporting the complete dissapearance of the word 'gay'.

"Don we now our gay apparel
Fa la la, la la la, la la la"

{American Family Association} Oh dear. That doesn't look right...

"Don we now our homosexual apparel
Fa la la, la la la, la la la"

Ballin' by association

When a friend starts dealing and you enjoy the fruits of their hard labor. Pussy, drugs, parties, alcohol and other stuff all paid by your friends.

Remember how different they used to be? Shitty car and cheap 40s every night. Never any girls around, Haha.

Yeah ever since Khanvict and Niko started dealing, they've been showing up here with like super hot tens, grey goose and blunts. They let me hit that shit all the time.

I know right? Wish I could ball like that.

But you already are my friend, your ballin' by association.
