thurlfabe

Coined by the Poddy Mouth podcast, hosted by Dom Sharpe and E 4our. A portmanteau of the Philly dialectal version of "thorough" (thurl) and the term in pro wrestling "kayfabe," referring to the acknowledgement of the separation between pro wrestlers and the characters they play during official fights, much like how an actor is distinguished in a movie or play. By combining "thurl:" meaning solid, dependable, cool, or real; and "kayfabe:" referring to performing or fronting, thurlfabe is faking in front of others in order to appear move comfortable than you may actually be (ie: drawlin, or posturing).

Dawg 1: Aye, jawn over there eyeing you, go crack that.
Dawg 2: Nah man I'm not trying do that right now, what if she not really bout that?
Dawg 1: Chill, just keep up thurlfabe, you got that.

Thurl

Used to describe anything that’s good, bussin, underrated, calm, slept on, or respectable.
If something is thurl, it’s solid — even if people overlook it. Could be food, a person, a song, a vibe — whatever

Personal twist on Philly slang “thurl”, with new meaning added: not just real, but lowkey fire and worthy of more respect
