Manhattan Shade

The act of lowering your own rent by charging new roommates more.

Person 1: "How can you afford all of these new toys...isn't your room like $800/month?"

Person 2: "Nah, I'm pulling the Manhattan Shade on my two new roommates...they're each paying $400 more than the guys who moved out. Suckas."

Shade but No Shade

Keeping it Real, Stating the obvious, bringing light to questionable behaviors in a “non-judgmental” or slightly comical way. At times, when necessary, can be used to be condescending. The phrase can be placed where ever the user feels most appropriate “throwing” shade… in a sentence. This phrase gives the user a “pass” for saying something that may typically be viewed as off-putting/ offensive.

Example1: I was in a meeting with Tommy “shade but no shade” his breath was making my stomach hurt…

Example 2: Why did I see Brandon out on Friday “shade but no shade” I think he was with another woman.

Example 3: Shade but no shade, those pants need to retire…

Example 4: Wait, Tammy lost 50 pd., lost her job and was seen a hott mess... is she smok'n, shade but no shade

Beater Shades

A cheap pair of non-designer sun glasses that can be tossed around, dropped, scratched, or lost. These glasses can be found at gas stations, flea markets, or events like Warped Tour. One of the most popular styles of beater shades are imitation Ray Bans made of cheap plastic with neon colored arms, usually given away as freebies at concerts.

I'm just going to bring a pair of beater shades to the beach, I always loose them anyway
