Apostape

One who leaves the religion of their childhood through sheer fucking will, usually to become a Heathen. They live their life to the fullest, never missing the chance to have fun, push their personal boundaries and gain the favor of Odin. An Apostape will live in such a way as to leave the members of the forsaken religion in envy of the Apostape. Apostape is a portmanteau of the words Apostate and Ape.

As soon as Laban realized his church was really just a cult he has been going fucking Apostape. Hes getting out of that cult, man. He sold that beater civic, divorced his fat wife, and used all the extra money to buy a HARLEY-DAVIDSON 2020 FAT BOB 114 Roadster. That dude is a mother fucking Apostape.

Apostolia

A person named Apostolia is just the best you‘ll ever meet. You should be happy if you know someone called like that. This person is a leader. Just an amazing friend and she‘ll always be there for you.

„Did you heard of Apostolia?“

„You shouldn‘t mess with Apostolia…“

Bottom apostrophe

When a man pulls out after anal sex and a small, crescent-shaped piece of shit is left protruding from his partner's asshole.

You should have douched, bitch. Look at that bottom apostrophe hanging out your crack!

Keep that dirty bottom apostrophe away from my Egyptian cotton sheets you dirty skank!

What the fuck, bitch?! There's some fucking bottom apostrophe hanging off you!

apostrophe

Not a piece of urban slang at all, but an important punctuation mark in written English, which I pride myself on knowing how to use correctly.
However, in my definition for Stoke-on-Trent, I have noticed that I made an error and put one in where it didn't belong (story of my life...).
Therefore, I'm putting this in to make myself feel better.
Wow, what a waste of your time if you read all that! Sorry!

It's only correct to put an apostrophe in "it's" if it's "it is", if not, it's "its".
