manchild

An adult male who still posesses psychological traits of a child. Traits include, but are not necessarily limited to:
- whining
- pettyness
- trying to pass the blame for their own underdeveloped judgement
- not "stepping up to the plate" when it's their role to.
- secretly still finds 3rd grade bathroom humor amusing.
- is able to connect with his children, but only as another child, not as a father.
- not to mention an overall insecurity in who he is as a man, from which similar traits sprout.

The manchild, if married, is often found married to Type A women (usually firstborn or only child in their own family) who reluctantly yet aptly take up the slack for the aforementioned manchild.

This manchild will often attempt to augment their lack and/or compete with peers with material posessions such as:
- Harley Davidson Softtail with $30 do-rag
- Hummer H2 or similar oversized fossil-fuel guzzling behemoth
- 6 seat felt poker table with matching humidor
- The very latest electronic gadgets (digital camera, GPS handheld, etc.) to impress peers with.
These examples reflect some of the psychological traits mentioned above, and some that aren't:

Midnight Munchies

The emptiness you feel in your stomach in the middle of the night, usually while watching commercials for pizza or Burger King.
Guy #1: Hey what did you do last night?

Guy #2: Ughh man, I was watching this movie on TV, and then a Burger King commercial came on for the Whopper JR. I realized I totally had the midnight munchies and I just had to get 50 of them things.

Procrastinatory Munchies

The feeling of wanting something to grub on to avoid doing something else of more importance. The feeling is compulsive and often occurs at a time when you aren't even hungry.
Bitch Ass Chemistry Teacher: Where's your homework? Me: All Sunday I was planning on working on it, but I got the Procrastinatory Munchies and ended up not doing anything. Bitch Ass Chemistry Teacher: That would most likely explain your overall surface area..... Me: Did you just call me a lardass in smart guy language?!! At least I didn't spend my weekend procrasterbating like some bitch ass chemistry teacher I know.

munchie buddy

A friend for life. Somebody who will go toe to toe against any taco and buddy up with you on any burger. You gots to be down for the bacon and be ready to go ham on the pork loin. Your Munchie Buddy doesn't have to necessarily smoke pot, we just know it always makes things better.
"Damn bro, I'm starving! I wish my munchie buddy Chad was here to take down this 10lb taco with me."

menchies

A Twitter user’s @-mentions: comments in response to their posts, or other discussion threads they have been tagged in. When a user is mentioned, they are usually notified, which can turn out bad.

When a user replies to a post, the author of the original post is “mentioned”. If the author’s post is controversial or blows up for some reason, they will get lots of repliers in their menchies. This often makes their notifications almost useless, since they’re flooded by responses to one post.

Other times, two or more repliers get into a debate in response to a different user’s original post, littering the OP’s menchies with irrelevant chatter. For obvious reasons, it sucks to get a bunch of notifications on an argument you have no interest in.
Ben just posted that “Waluigi is overrated,” RIP his menchies.

You can have your Haribo vs. Black Forest gummy bear argument, but please, not in my menchies.

Manchester by the sea

A place where every family buys there child a Jeep as soon as they turn 16.. the moms all go to book club together to drink and to gossip about their children and who’s dating who. If you don’t spin the beach in your free time then you really aren’t from manch. Summers revolve around the singing beach and people spending time on yatchs.
Manchester by the sea is where you should live if being preppy is your thing.
