1. "Holy shit, my grandma died last night"
"Really? I got brokencyded last night"
"Oh man, I'm so sorry."
2. "Did you hear about Jerry?"
"He's in hospital, yeah? The old brokencyde again."
"It pierced his brain. He spent all day yesterday telling me how much of a musical genius Chad Kroeger is."
Brokencyde (marketed as brokeNCYDE and also known as BC13) is a 4-piece group from New Mexico that combines crunk and screamo musical styles. Many music listeners despise them, and they get almost invariably bad reviews by magazines and critics. Brokencyde still maintains a fairly large audience of mostly "scene" teenagers, who themselves are often harshly criticized. Their latest album, as of November 2009, is I'm Not A Fan..But The Kids Like It. Brokencyde has garnered intense hatred from all music circles, and is universally regarded as an example of poor music, both lyrically and musically.
Typically found on a music forum:
<Br00t4l-sc3ne88> lol i just got the new brokeNCYDE record
<FenderGuitarist59> You have terrible taste in music
<Br00t4l-sc3ne88> stfufaggot ur music sux cock
<BassMan00 (MOD)> Agree with FG, banned
Music so bad, it has become the universal standard for bad music:
The band that always wins the "what is the worst shit-ass music ever created by man" argument. Everyone thinks that they know horrible music, but upon subjugation to the "freaxx" youtube video, Brokencyde unanimously decides the debate.
It is now the gold standard to which all unbelievably shitty music is to be compared.
<SH>: Oh man, you should have heard this terrible fucking band this emofag was playing in his car. I mean worst music EVER
(creates jerking motion with hand)
<JA>: Oh yeah? Listen to this.

Nickname given to bales of marijuana thrown overboard or out of airplanes. Origin is reportedly from members of the US Coast Guard in the area of Southern Florida.
A sunburn or suntan focused on the left arm. It is caused by the left side of the body being the only half that gets exposed to sunlight while driving. Presumably, it would be located on the right side of the body in countries where they drive on the left side of the road.
I had a trucker's tan after driving for 10 straight hours on a sunny day.
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”
Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
