spinning plates

doing many things at once, dating many people at once, being a whore, friendly; like in the variety shows of the 70s where the performer puts a plate on a tall thin stick mounted to the stage and spins it ... puts another plate on another stick and spins it ... doing more and more to see how many he can keep spinning without falling
Dude1: "Hey man, you just dating that one chick?"
Dude2: "Nah, I've got several hoes on the line, i'm spinning plates man!"

Spinning Plates

"Spinning Plates" is the art of juggling multiple people you’re attracted to, keeping each one interested while trying to hold them all in your orbit.
Guy 1: "Hey man, are you still talking to that one girl"
Guy 2: "Yeah I'm talking to her and two of her friends"
Guy 3: "My guy, you are Spinning Plates for no reason"

Plate Spinning 

The act of simultaneously masturbating three or more Chinese men.
Foreign Exchange Student 1: "Mate I can't remember anything after I ate those funny tasting prawn crackers at the welcome party last night..."

Foreign Exchange Student 2: "Dude, I just saw a video of you on the internet plate spinning..."

side plate spinnin' 

When you have a main dish (relationship) and then several other people (side plates) that you're chatting, flirting, and boning. Your main dish is like meatloaf, you're familiar with it and you feel safe with it. The side plates are like grilled brussel sprouts, you're not sure the sprouts are gonna work out but you're feeling adventurous.
Example 1: Man I'm not too full this weekend for a little side plate spinnin'.

Example 2: Hey Tony, I know you're all full with your wife but if you're a little hungry I got just the girl at work for a little side plate spinnin. So you hungry bro?

church hurt 

church hurt is where you experience a degree of distance, pain, or judgement from your church community. Essentially, you are just unable to “find your place”. This is prevalent in the Christian community, but can be extended to other religions.
Now that I am an adult I am beginning to heal from the church hurt that was inflicted on me as a child.

Huge. Surpassing normal expectations.
I was fishing with a Spinner Bait and a HONKIN pike came after it and hit it . Felt like a lawnmower running over a brick.

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
