"dude, i've about had enough of this stupid sh*t, that guy has got to go"
The first powerful and energetic "hoorah" was stated by Laterrian. He is black. This term is used to pump up the confidence and to give a boost to the men chanting it. Usually used by men, but some women who are found to be homosexual, will steal the catchphrase from the guys. Usually chanted from a single guy, and myriad men chant it back in a louder fashion.
