(adj) a term to describe the feeling of fun and excitement while appearing to be bored and unthrilled. This word can also be used as a noun.
Ex.1: Let's hang out at my place and play some cards; it'll be a shimmay night.
Ex.2: I saw Jerry get his shimmay on at the bar last night.

Further Examples:
Jenny is quite the shimmay; her idea of a good time includes playing golf, watching movies, and chatting with her friends.
The opposite of someone who would be considered a "shimmay" or a "shimmarian" is someone who typically likes to "party" in the old fashioned sense of the word (dancing, drinking, etc.)
Another example of someone acting shimmay would be some guy totally shredding a guitar while keeping a very straight face.

shimmay bauw 

excessive force of the 'playa' voice, invented by the great and powerful johnny, led to this statement. taking the teaching of ol' dirty bastard and referring to the lyric "shimmy shimmy yah, shimmy yam, shimmy yay" under the 'playa' voice, the word became 'shimmay' with the extra 'a.' the word 'balls' would sound like 'bauws' in the playa voice. 'bauws' was a favorite word of the PBP crew at the time. one day, the great johnny opened his mouth, and forever is was... "SHIMMAY BAUW!"
yo mang, this taco makes a playa wanna holla... SHIMMAY BAUW!!!

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
