The Big Apple

A term only used by tourists and new people moving into NYC that think they are cool when in reality, they are not and try to use the term to show their non-existent coolness. They quickly realize that real New Yorkers don't say this term when one gives them a dirty look and that NYC consists of 5 boroughs and not just Manhattan.

Adriana: You're from NYC??
Sue: Yeah, I'm from the Big Apple! Can't you tell?
Adriana: *Spits in her face* Don't fucking lie to me.

grebo

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.

Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
