It sounds like the french word for River or Dream, but it is a name, preferably of a girl, though it can be used for a boy as well. It is not easily recognizable by most Generation X or older people. Most often it must be repeated and sometimes even spelled aloud for most to understand it. Many times, even after spelling it, the name will be guessed as Rieze. If you think saying "R-I-E-V as in Victor-E" will help, you're wrong. They will think you said Victory, and will spell the name Riev.

Then, it is often asked if it is short for anything or if it is a family name. Please do not feel obligated to respond accurately. Names you can pretend Rieve is short for include Rievalufagus, Rievington, Rieviangelo, and Rieviam. Feel free to also say that you were named after a family member, and continue to make up their story.
"Rieve has been rockin' on the guitar for 7 straight hours!" "If I have one more Rieve, you'll have to drive home."

gender reveal 

Gender reveals are to find out the gender of an unborn baby. The reveal can be through pink or blue balloons, cake, opening a box, or something similar. The gender is one of the first things you get to find out about the baby. It's a new piece of them you get to meet so it's special and exciting. When the parents learn the gender they can start planning clothes, his/her room, and even the child's name. Parents go through the effort to treat their friends to food, desserts, and a party.

Spite Monkey’s Revenge 

This is where some nasty little heale of a spite monkey usually a teenager or pre-teen has an idea for a definition for Urban Dictionary. They look it up and find your definition of ‘their’ word already in place and approved by a lot of people. True to the spite monkey mentality they immediately hit the thumbs down symbol, they then contact any like-minded losers they call friends and get them to do the same thing. They don’t bother trying to get their own definition accepted but boast about how they beat the fuck out of yours. It’s possible to hope that one day they will actually grow up, but unfortunately so many of them will remain nothing more than disagreeable little snot splatters for their entire lives.
“My latest definition on Urban Dictionary has picked up loads of dislikes, I don’t understand why.”
“It’s the spite monkey’s revenge, mate. Some little turd reckons you nicked their definition and this is a way of getting back at you.”

Drinking for revenge 

Drinking for revenge is a toast used by people known for their excessive use of alcohol. It’s the intake equivalent of whistling past a graveyard as though the rules of the tombstone don’t apply to you. The entire toast goes:

Dinking killed my mother; drinking killed my father; so I’m drinking for revenge!
Drinking for revenge is a toast used by people known for their high alcohol intake. This usually doesn’t end well!

city chicken 

A food native to Pittsburgh/Western Pennsylvania in which cubes of pork and/or veal are put on a short, wooden skewer, breaded, then baked and/or fried.

I've heard that city chicken originated during the Great Depression, when folks didn't have enough money to buy full cuts of meat, so they assembled meat scraps on a wooden skewer, creating a make-shift drumstick. Hence the name.

endwarfins

The rush of neurotransmitters and neuropeptides triggered specifically by watching the Seven Dwarfs march home singing "Heigh-Ho" — that particular high of pickaxes, whistling while you work, and communal domestic bliss in a cottage built for men half your height.
I only meant to watch the Heigh-Ho scene for the endwarfins, and then it was two hours later and I'd watched the whole movie.

Endwarfins aren't just a Snow White thing — I get the same hit off the Lollipop Guild in Oz.
