Across the street

Also known as when someone(emo) cuts themselves across the wrist.
Emo kids usually do it because they want to die, but truthfully that is not a very productive way to do it.

This is where the term "Down the road, not across the street." (also variated with alley and stream/river) originated.

Cutting yourself across the street will just be painful. Chances are it won't kill you, unless you're a hemophiliac. You can still do it if you are emo enough to prove you're hardcore.

When will they learn!? Cutting across the street does nothing! Down the road, all the way!

word on the street

information or gossip derived from sources outside mainstream society, usually judged as more reliable by the criminal underclass and mafiosi/gangster-types.

Carlo Bartolucci: That phone call I got, it came from outside high walls and fancy gates; it comes from a place you know about maybe from the movies. But I come from out there, and everybody out there knows, everybody lies: cops lie, newspapers lie, parent's lyin'. The one thing you can count on - word on the street... yeah, that's solid.

cross the street

An act of precautionary racism, crossing the street is undertaken by white men or women when a larger number of young black men are walking towards them on the same side of an otherwise quiet or dark street. While it is becoming more widely recognised that most black men are non-aggressive, it's better to be safe than sorry.

I saw a black man coming towards me while I was wearing my Nikes and listening to my IPod, so thought I'd cross the street early just in case.
