Pronounced "see-lai".
A middle to upper age woman of usually Chinese descent, who has several/all of the following distinctions from regular people:
1. Doesn't have a job, or works in some menial position like housekeeping. Husband brings home the dough.
2. Drives a BMW 7-series, X5, or Mercedes-Benz SL, GL, or ML.
3. Drives 40 km/h down the road, even when everyone is going 60-70.
4. Wears full-length (extending up to elbow) driving gloves on both hands and a welding mask for the face, and for fear of getting skin spots.
5. Puts the driver's seat in the farthest position forward, with the seatback vertical, and still doesn't use the seatback. (ie leans forward, so face is inches from the steering wheel)
6. Hits other cars when parking, and is completely oblivious that she just ran over the hood of the lowered Civic next to her parking spot. Also parks on the lines so that neighbouring drivers cannot even get into their cars.
7. Only goes between the supermarket, home, and the homes of other C-lais to play mah jong.
8. Never smiles, as that creates wrinkles.

Get the C-lai mug.an abbreviation for the phrase "taking care of business," a motto adopted by Elvis after his wife left him and while his career was hitting a low. It appears on an emblem he created: the letters t, c, and b are arranged vertically in front of a lightning bolt. cf. Elvis's tombstone at his home in Memphis
"Now I'm T. C. B., mm-hm," the King said, looking into the mirror as he zipped up his brand new, white leather jump suit. "Mm-hm, taking care of business," he said, as he ran his fingertips along the multicolored sequins arranged like a firebird down the chest of the suit.

Get the C-Boy mug.A C-Thug is a corporate thug. A nerd who has kissed enough ass or happened to have parents or relatives that decided to start their own company. Either way they are untouchable, and cannot be fired for the mean/out of line shit they say. They spend most of their days at work talking down to people and acting like they'd fuck someone up, if it came to it, which it never does. Most of their abuse is in the form of email, similar to an E-Thug.
Damn I guess I didn't follow policy on this request. Instead of directing me to the list of procedures this bitch decided to go C-Thug on me! She sent me an email talkin shit! I saw her facebook, this bitch is a fucking square!
