pylon spotting

The unspeakably boring hobby of walking under electricity pylons with a pen and notepad and writing down the serial numbers from the pylons. Perfect hobby for those who can't get laid.

Joe: What do you like to do in your spare time?
Schmoe: I go pylon spotting.
Joe: That's so uncool. Get a life!

spotted

When you message someone via your choice of social media, and they've read your message but do absolutely nothing with their social media for an extremely long time.

Bob: Hello, Jim!
Jim: *reads the message but does not respond to Bob and supposedly does not interact in any other way on that social media*
Bob: Man, I hate getting spotted by Jim...

pylon spotter

1. One who engages in the hobby of electricity pylon number collecting, aka pylon spotting. Can be seen walking under pylons with a pen, notebook, binoculars, and wearing an anorak.

2. A very pathetic person with no life, who has nothing better to do than get into bizarre but boring hobbies

Pylon spotters are so uncool, it's not even funny. They badly need help.

spotter

A criminal-accomplice whose job is to watch out for incoming policemen while his friends commit a crime (usually drug dealing, burglaries, safeguarding supply houses, etc). Spotters are basically human alarm systems that criminals use to warn them when the cops come near. They usually stand on a corner to get a better vantage point and to give their friends plenty of time to run away, flush the drugs, etc. The warning is usually a shouted code, but can sometimes also be visual; modern criminals now use cell phones. Often times, spotters are juveniles who can't be effectively punished by law for aiding in a felony.

Hello, mama? I'm in jail. The popo arrested me for chillin' on the same block where some dealin' was going down. They say I was spottin' and they be chargin' me as an accomplice.

bro spotting

the deliberate practice of searching for those who can be classified as a "Bro."

To be specific,spotting those who wear polos, wear rainbow flip flops, listen to Dave Matthews and Jack Johnson, and play game cube in their spare time.

If a bro is spotted, you can make sure that they truly are a bro, even if they aren't dressed accordingly, by raising your hand and shouting " Sup bro." If the suspect is truly a bro, he will raise his hand or reply back.

" My buddies and I went out downtown looking for some bros."
" Oh, so you guys went bro spotting?"
