Words you can keep
A poor attempt at creating a new norwegian written language based on dialects. It was supposed to be a uniting language, but ended up being based almost only on the weird and extremely unpleasant-sounding talk-like noises produced by inbred halfwits from the godforsaken valleys in the inner western part of the country.

The fact that this language is an official language in Norway costs the country millions, but still there are some inbred halfwits who wants to keep it that way.

Despite all this, it must be mentioned that the language is good for something - such as use in poems, other lyrical works and literature.
"Nynorsk i skole og stat er bortkastede penger!"
Utdrag av et dikt på nynorsk:

Og derfor til fjells
vil eg draga som døl,
og kjenningar finna
og gløyma meg sjølv.

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!
