A scrim is a very light textile made from cotton, or sometimes flax. Their lightweight and translucence means it is often used for curtains. The fabric can also be used for bookbinding and upholstery.

The advantage of scrims is that with certain they can appear opaque to the audience until a quick change in stage lighting makes them almost fully transparent.

Scrim- The complete and full process of trying to engage in conversation with a female to acquire her number. Scrim is also used in the context of trying to "holler" at a girl before dating officially. For instance like unofficially going to holler at a female.
The scrimmage "scrim" is what happens before the real game (dating) actually starts.
once you receive the girls number "scrims" go from unofficial to official. After official scrims and the actual relationship status changes you are no longer "scrimming."

Its also good to add random sylabes to the end of it such as 'Scrimmeny' or 'Scrimming'. You could alse change the first two letters and say all of the words together, such as 'Scrim, brim, rim, frim, lrim, grhim, wrim'

Person 1: You got those ScrimmenyMcRawments?
