hard in the face 

When a person's face looks 20-30 years older than their actual age. As if they've been hit in the face repeatedly with a baseball bat. This can be genetic, but it could also happen by abusing drugs, or after several botched cosmetic surgeries.

hard in the paint 

To approach a problem, obstacle, or challenge with supreme confidence of success through a commitment to use all facilities available to one's self to achieve a goal.

The term has etymological roots in the basketball parlance that describes an attempt to score in the crowded and highly contested area directly under and immediately adjacent to the raised hoop on a basketball court, or "painted" area. Shot attempts in this area are traditionally only successful when made with a strong conviction to score, skill, overpowering strength, or a combination thereof (i.d. "going hard").

It heavily varies, depending on the concurrent circumstances.

Hard In The Paint 

In the Texas prison system, many convicts are housed in dormitory style housing blocks while awaiting transfer to their "assigned" unit for the duration of their stay, or after they've earned the right to be housed with the extra freedom of movement and in the general population. Within those dorm-style housing units are fire/emergency exit doors with 4-6 foot square outlines painted on the floor in yellow directly in front of the door, both inside and out (outer being a secured area referred to as a "sally-port"). In some of the facilities with these dorms, the exit door is actually out of sight from the closed circuit TV cameras inside the dorm constantly monitoring the inhabitants. When "called/called out" to the paint by another convict, one should go hard with survival as the utmost concern, as one never knows what the opponent is capable of doing. Successful convicts more often than not, run off instinctual survival methods (break bones, incapacitate) in order to end the confrontation as quickly as possible without getting hurt and not be observed by the correctional officers charged with their well being.
Going "Hard In The Paint", can become a natural state among those whose survival instinct has become necessary in order to evolve in a violence driven environment.

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
