ghost town

To destroy; to annihilate, to remove any trace of the thing in question. The phrase comes from Pantera's "Cowboys From Hell":

"'Cause a ghost town is found
Where your city used to be"

Often used in a culinary context (ex.1), "ghost towning" can also be applied in a threatening manner (ex.2). Sometimes used in an exclamatory sense (ex.3).
Ex.1:
"I ghost towned that chicken!"
"Ghost town is found where that chicken used to be!"
(I rapidly consumed that chicken, leaving nothing left)

Ex.2:
"I'll ghost town your SOUL!"
(I will beat you so badly that your soul will flee)

Ex.3
"Ghost towned!"
(An exlamation upon a decisive victory)

Bro Town

Bro Town is the much loved New Zealand cartoon which takes the piss out of everything New Zealanders are too sensitive too actually admit or are worried about saying because the Maori, Samoan, Tongan, or general Polynesian mix will smash them for saying. It has created many common phrases in New Zealand such as Morning Side 4 Life!, Peyow, Peyow!, and I'm going to the pub, I may be some time... It also takes the piss out of F.O.B pronounciations of English such as 'Peer' for 'Beer'
"Bro Town jus ran its las epysoyd ow"
"Fuck Morning Side 4 Life, Otara where the thugs at!"
"I'd like to Peyow, Peyow her."

ghost town

A neighborhood in West Oakland, CA in the area of Martin Luther King Jr Way bordering from W. Grand Ave. to 35th Street. The name may have originated in the times when eminent domain forced hundreds of families out of their homes making the area feel like a ghost town. Many also refer to it as ghost town because of all the killings that have taken place in the area. A big percentage of Oakland's homicides happen in this area and the neighboring streets.
Bavgate, a rapper from Oakland signed to Thizz Ent., is from Ghost Town.

"You see that nigga Bavgate from Ghost-Town out there?"
