Across the street 

Also known as when someone(emo) cuts themselves across the wrist.
Emo kids usually do it because they want to die, but truthfully that is not a very productive way to do it.

This is where the term "Down the road, not across the street." (also variated with alley and stream/river) originated.

Cutting yourself across the street will just be painful. Chances are it won't kill you, unless you're a hemophiliac. You can still do it if you are emo enough to prove you're hardcore.
When will they learn!? Cutting across the street does nothing! Down the road, all the way!

More from Urban Dictionary
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
