NICKLE'D

When you get criticized for 10 minutes straight you try to defend yourself and the person totally shuts you down all while in front of an audience. (Named after a Professor Nickles who is notorious for this)

Student: Actually, can I say something?

Professor: Actually you may not.

(Class: Ooooh, you just got NICKLE'd!)

Nicked Out

Derived from the word nicotine, this is a term for the nicotine rush that someone experiences from smoking cigarettes or vaping. Usually affects non-smokers or casual smokers that go long periods without consuming nicotine.

Commonly used in the 626 area of SoCal amongst boba drinkers and ABG’s.

Chris: Hey can I bum a stoge? I forgot my pack at home.

Jennifer: Yeah here you go.

*Chris smokes the cigarette and lays back in his chair*

Chris: Holy fuck I’m nicked out I literally can’t move right now.

getting nicked

When you are too poor to go out and drink so you stay home and get so drunk you puke in your own kitchen sink

My tax return didn't come in the mail so I decided on getting Nicked at home

the bull is off the nickle

evidently it's an older expression referring to something that is crazy or unbelievable. I heard it used on an old episode of the Twilight Zone recently, but had never heard the expression before.

such an outlandish story proved "the bull is off the nickle".

nickles

A drinking/campfire game in which the participant throws a 5 cent coin over the fence in order to hit a neighbouring house, shed, car, or any other object. The winner is judged by the length of time the nickel takes to hit something, as well as the loudness of the sound the coin makes. The game is best played after sundown, and bonus points are awarded when the owner of the house being hit turns on the lights to see what the noise was all about.

This game can also be played with other denominations such as quarters, but nickles are usually picked for both their relatively large size as well as their low value, providing the best bang for the buck.

"Hey, what do you chumps want to do tonight?"

"Let's get really drunk and play nickles".

Nickleback

Shorthand for any terrible, redneck, cousin-fucking band using overblown vocals, unimaginative guitar riffs, clichéd lyrics an 11-year-old could write, and generally mind-numbingly boring, predictable musical devices in the vein of Creed, another horrifically unoriginal, grating band, but with shitty Christian lyrics.

"Hey sexy, I've got tickets to see Hinder, Blue October, and Finger Eleven..."

"Eww! Nicklebacks suck!" (Maces him and lights his mullet on fire)
