Street Smart

A term that complete idiots use to try and glorify their ignorance as being some kind of virtue. Someone who is "street smart" might be found wearing Tap-Out clothing, has a shaved head, some kind of dragon tattoo or obscure Asian lettering somewhere on their body, brags about how many bones in your body they can break, has an ego completely disproportionate to their abilities, and watches UFC ritualistically. This type of person can often be found making minimum wage on a local McDonald's construction site, or at a pre-screening of "Never Back Down".

Frank: Yo man I jus can wait to kick yo ass. I'm a fighter and I street smart.
John: Really? Because you seem to be talking a lot and not doing shit.

street smarts

a tv show that has the most stupid, idiotic, brain dead people that were ever born.

street smarts would probably ask the question "are you to stupid to live?" and "did your mother ever have any children that lived?" these are the people that could answer these questions and probably get them wrong.
