Promposing 

Most often done around spring time, it is the act of asking someone to go to the prom with you.

It is a challenge every year to think up better and better ways to prompose.
Jack: Hey are you and Liz going to the prom next month?

Doug: Yeah man, I plan on promposing tomorrow morning on the PA.

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.

The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
