Nilla Wafer

AAVE slang derived from a brand of sweet snack that’s similar to a vanilla wafer. It describes a light skinned Caucasian person. Depending on usage it can be said neutrally, cheekily, or condescendingly. It can have implications similar to the slang “vanilla wafer” referring to a person who is unadventurous. In that context “nilla wafer” suggests a person has little exposure to cultural media, customs, and cuisine outside of their white racial experiences.

“I saw her on that show where she was booty shaking and trying to rap. I was like, ‘Okay, nilla wafer.’”

Damnit, we’re out of cookies. All we have is an 8-year old box of Nilla Wafers in the back of the pantry.

Nilla Wafer top hat time

It's the time you wear a hat made outta Nilla Wafers. It's the best time in the history of mankind!

One day, there was a knock at my door. A mysterious drifter was on the other side. In his hands was a box, and on his lips were the words, "Listen closely; I don't have much time." Then he reached in the box and pulled out a Nilla Wafer top hat from inside. He said, "Wear it when it's time." And I said, "What time?" And then he died. Later, I realized he was talking about Nilla Wafer top hat time.

Basically your average white chick; not remarkabley attractive, not hideous either, and a bit on the thin side; as in the Nilla Wafer cookie. Used sometimes by black folks to describe a white chick or their girlfriends.

Toe Rag

A toe rag was originally a foot wrapping used, since mediaeval times up until the mid-nineteenth century, to protect the foot from chafing by boots or shoes. As these were, quite literally, rags they weren’t usually washed, and so with use they became very smelly until they were thrown away. Because of the similarity in smell, toe rag also became the name applied to dried, salted cod or other things with a strong, unpleasant, fishy smell. It didn’t take that long before the name was applied to someone who was an obnoxious, unpleasant OIC.

1 “Socks! Those aren’t socks you smelly git, they’re toe rags!”
2 “What have you been cooking? Smells like toe rag!”
3 “I can smell ‘er fanny from ‘ere, proper toe rag.”
4 That Heale Malcolm is a right toe rag.
