(Adjective):
Used to describe a person who enjoys tripping on 'shrooms. Usually accompanied by stories of "how far gone" they were during a recent trip. Also usually has mushroom paraphernilia, like blacklight-sensitive posters of 'shrooms, in their home. Normally can't sit still for long and laughs too much at something that might not even be funny.
(Noteworthy point: A "shroomer" is not a person with a 'mushroom-looking haircut'. Only a fuckhead or somebody from Michigan would come up with that.)
Jack: "What the hell is Tim doing on top of the house?"
Chris: "It's ok, he's a shroomer. He's probably just getting away from the jackals on the ground or some snakes were chasing him, or maybe it just feels really nice up there, who knows."
Jack: "Fuckin' shroomers, always going apeshit. I wonder if he has any more left!? I wanna trip out too now, damn!"
Nickname given to bales of marijuana thrown overboard or out of airplanes. Origin is reportedly from members of the US Coast Guard in the area of Southern Florida.
A sunburn or suntan focused on the left arm. It is caused by the left side of the body being the only half that gets exposed to sunlight while driving. Presumably, it would be located on the right side of the body in countries where they drive on the left side of the road.
I had a trucker's tan after driving for 10 straight hours on a sunny day.
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”
Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
