Similar to "The Shocker", "The Shiv" is a sexual act that involves forming a W with your hand like the Westside Gang sign. The dominant partner gives the more subtle female partner pleasure by inserting the middle and ring fingers into her vagina and the pinky finger of the same hand into her anus. This leaves the index finger free to manipulate her clitoris leading to maximal stimulation. She is pleasured by the slow/fast thrusting of the hand in and out of the orifices.

A rowdy, street-smart playboy. Has anger management issues. Shivs are normally the type of people who seem a bit phony and fake at first, but once u get to know them u wanna stay with them. Beware though. A shiv will probably ditch u the moment he finds something Better.
Remember that punk at the bar?? He was totally a shiv! The way he tried to chat us up!

punishment doled out to friends and enemies alike for the crime of being a wuss or ignoramus. the stab-ee receives a stiff thumb jabbed into the ribcage while the stabber yells 'shiv!', pantomiming the act of brandishing a makeshift blade fashioned from a prisonhouse toothbrush.
you: "shiv!"
your wussy friend: "ow! my wussy ribs!"
