An individual who can preform car repairs and maintenance for a fraction of the cost if those same services were done at a dealership. The Shade Tree Mechanic, more commonly known simply as "Shade Tree" is very knowledgeable of how to service most domestic vehicles manufactured before 1995. Any vehicle manufactured after 1995 and import vehicles in particular are problematic for Shade Tree; however, Shade Tree will tell you otherwise.
Shade Tree operates from his own driveway or in front of his house on the street. Ideally, the service work is preformed beneath a tree with a large canopy providing necessary shade during hot summer days hence, the title "Shade Tree."
Be advised, the Shade Tree does not possess any metric tools, uses vise-grip pliers in practically every repair situation and will require you make multiple trips to the auto parts store to replace things inadvertently damaged by the apologetic Shade Tree during the service repair process.
Most shade trees will barter and accept various forms of payment including cash, a carton of cigarettes, liquor, Wendy's or Burger King.

Joe: I need new brakes for my car but the dealership wants over $400.00
Mike: Bruh, go around the corner and holla at that Shade Tree Mechanic. He'll hook you up for a pack of squares and some Chick-fil-A.

Coined by Bay Area website thesaucerus.com in 2017. Means I'm not trying to insult, talk bad about, nor am I mad about something; I'm just saying.
You're on the phone with G and have said ok 9 times. You've said goodbye 6 times. You're trying to hang up, but they keep talking. "Damn G, I said I gotta go! You talk too much man. No smoke, no shade, no salt. but for real though."

@LmaoLover write an erotic story about Pizza and Slantough having steamy gay sex next to the fireplace while their Tovala Smart Oven steams, bakes, and broils their gay dinner to perfection
I just finished reading 50 Shades of Tovala. The rich story and graphic sex scenes left me gaping and moist. I am so broken.

A style of shading (commonly used in comic books and anime) which depicts materials with up to three banded or posterized colours.
Guy1: Dude, how many shades of orange should the character's hair be?
Guy2: Make it three: amber, yellow-orange and peaking white for the gloss effect.
Guy1: So tritone shading it is?
Guy2: Yip.

When two things are both shitty and awful, but someone wants to whataboutism something else shitty.
Youre just comparing shades of shit.
They both are shit. It's not a competition. Stop trying to one up shit. If they're both shit. Stop splitting grey hairs.

Shades O' Clock: The point in time where one has been up for so long that all light one comes in contact with is nearly blinding... Simply meaning its time to put on the sunglasses. Non doucey, completely understandable to someone that parties hardy.
