Tino is another name for a lame. Typically a guy who sits at home all the time eating wings, playing video games and jacking his bean stalk. Tino’s are to broke to go out on weekends. They usually live imaginary lives and say they are managers and assist famous people in life. They live in a dream world.
When your friend says he has exclusive plans and doing cool stuff too late find out he’s just a TINO

Get the Tinomug. Lie-tino / Lietino
Definition:
A coined neologistic adjective, blending the words "lie" and "Latino", used to characterize the behavior of a small subset of individuals of Latino descent—particularly those of Puerto Rican heritage —who became widely known in FBA grassroots circles for exaggerating or distorting historical facts regarding the origins and history of Hip Hop culture during online debates. Though sometimes provocative, the term is intended as a satirical descriptor, not a pejorative noun or ethnic slur.
Background:
Coined in the early 2020s during online debates about Hip Hop’s 50th anniversary, the term arose as some Nuyoricans (Puerto Ricans from the Bronx) argued their cultural centrality to Hip Hop. These debates, occurring during the COVID-19 lockdowns and beyond, prompted backlash from grassroots Foundational Black Americans (FBA), who emphasized that Hip Hop’s core elements were created nationwide and exclusively by FBA artists, particularly drawing from Southern Black musical traditions. As claims from the Nuyorican side grew more combative and exaggerated, FBA commentators coined “Lietino/Lie-tino” as a satirical nickname. YouTube content creator Great Black Shark is credited with originating the term.

That’s classic Lie-tino behavior—turning a minor Latin percussion presence into a whole cultural takeover.
