waver ˈwā-vər , ( noun ) : a late 1980's term for a skateboarder , typically a teen who wears surfer clothes and has dyed hair that is long on one side and hangs over one eye or a variation of a bowl cut . These "wavers" were very popular in the late 1980's and were seen as a nuisance on sidewalks and in strip malls causing numerous "no skating on premises" signs to be posted and even spawned a number of local ordinances to help protect property owners from liability of accidents caused by the irresponsible teenaged skateboarders .
This words origin is most likely from a popular skateboarding phrase "riding the concrete wave" .

Get the waver mug.From unnecessary scarf wearer. This is a person of western background, usually Caucasian, found in Cairo, Egypt. Not all westerners in Cairo are scarf-wearers: scarf-wearers are people who work for NGOs or similar, and are studying Arabic. The term stems from their ubiquitous habit of draping at least one scarf bought from Khan el Khalili, the old market, around themselves in an effort to appear "ethnic" and in their fervour to kowtow to what they believe are Egyptian norms. In reality, they end up dressed more modestly than the weather or the culture necessitates. Female scarf-wearers will also love long flowing skirts and dresses with no particular shape, birkenstocks or leather Jesus sandals, stringy jewellery, and will wear no makeup. Their hair will also be uncared for. Inevitably they will have a massive bag with them made of hemp or bedouin cloth. Male scarf-wearers will have ill-fitting trousers also made of hemp, scraggly t-shirts or "ethnic" shirts bought from Khan el Khalili, and the most radical practitioners may have a Palestinian kuffiya draped around their necks. They will have longish unkempt hair and beards. All of these people will have an Arabic textbook on their person.
Scarf-wearers will divide their time between "real" parts of Cairo, looking around and doing good works and buying ironic things, Dahab, where they will smoke up on cushions by the Red Sea, and going to nice bars and parties in Cairo with Egyptian guys who want to have sex with them. Whenever possible they will eat Egyptian street food, really courting disaster. After around a year spent in Egypt, they usually return to wearing the appropriate amount of scarves and real trousers and doing something with their hair.

Girl: Have you met your new American co-worker yet?
NGO chick: Yeah, she eats foul and taamiya every day. I haven't seen her arms yet even though it is August. She's a hardcore scarf-wearer.

Get the weamer mug.If you walk around Waverley at night you will be sure to get stabbed by the locals at Regent Street or Allwinton Court, which is the drug capital of Waverley. We have two scummy shops, the servo or the "top shop". People generally buy their tea at the servo. Teenagers go to the "skate park" to smoke bongs and joints at the bong shed where you will find a bong used by five year olds. Their are normally homeless people there too. DO NOT go to the "top shop" or servo alone, you will get raped, mouthed, bashed, shot or stabbed. IF you do get into a fight in Waverley, try not to get others blood on you as many have aids, Hep C, Hep B, Hep A or "the clap". Do not swim in the Waverley Lake, it may look inviting but you will get sick and die. Have a very nice day at Waverley, keep this as your survival guide.
