Words you can keep

need-to-know basis

Need to know basis

Good because I need to know everything immediately and anyone telling you to withhold information from me need to be brought to me for execution, immediately.
Hym "You know I'm going to murder anyone telling you that I am on a 'need to know basis' right? That is one of the 2 things I said I would murder over 1. Pretend to be me in an overt capacity and 2. Withholding information FROM me. Bring anyone telling you that to me immediately. For murder."

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!
