Soul Mate

Its a... well it’s like a best friend but more. Its the one person who knows you better then everyone else. Its the one who makes you a better person, actually they don’t make you a better person you do that yourself, because they inspire you. Its the one person who... knew you and exsepted you. Who believed in you before anyone else did, when no one else would.

Girl #1: OMG did you see him/her today they are so inspiring!!
Girl #2: Yup he’s my soul mate!!
Girl #1: YOU ARE SO LUCKY 🍀

WTF, mate?

Originates from the End of the World flash movie, and was said by the Kangaroo before the world ended. Means literally "what the fuck, mate?" and is said in moments of confusion, surprise, or disgust. Is especially popular amoung slightly nerdy high school intellectuals who like flash movies like "Weebl and Bob" and "Homestar Runner."

Julie: Dude, we have a test in AP Chem today.
Bob: WTF, mate?

Mate

The word "Mate" is a word commonly used in Britain, New Zealand and Australia. It is also used by ethnic communities in Britain such as the East Asian community (India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka).

"Mate" is commonly spelled as "M8" in Text Language or LeetSpeak.

The word "Mate" can be used in a variety of ways, from greetings to flip-offs to sarcasm.

A week ago I was cycling home from work and this twat of a driver nearly knocked me off because he was desperately trying to get through the traffic lights. He called me a "Twat" and I shouted "Fuck off mate!" at him. This is just one example.

Here is a list of examples and situations in which "Mate" may be used:

Greeting: "Hello mate!"
Sarcasm: "Mate that was fucking orgasmic"
Endearment: "Mate you're a legend."
Flippancy: "Alright mate keep your hair on"
