Curb Surfing 

The process of going through residential neighborhoods just before the city sanitation trucks pick up “bulk trash.” Those items that will not fit in the homeowner's regular trash container are considered “bulk trash.” The residents are instructed to place those items on the curb in front of the house and at a scheduled time the city will pick up everything and dispose of it. The goal is to beat the sanitation truck to the neighborhood so the items on the curb can be searched before the truck arrives.

Here in Dallas Texas, we have been curb surfing since the late 1990s.
Hey Pero, I’m looking for a bicycle lets go curb surfing in Gilbert's neighborhood tonight since bulk trash is picked up in the morning.

We regularly hum the Sanford & Son's theme while curb surfing for metal recyclables throughout town.

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”

An Irish phrase meaning shit, derived from ass
(Not to be confused with the literal description of one's buttocks)
"Did you hear the song Aylek$ dropped?"
"Hardly. Her music is absolute cheeks."

"My boyfriend say LaFlame is cheeks."
"Tell your boyfriend I said it's his mixtape that's cheeks."

Breadhead 

Someone who is addicted to obtaining money and building wealth. A money addict and fanatic. Breadheads often work more than one full-time job, and some even participate in illicit activities to "obtain the bread".
A breadhead is like a crackhead, but for money instead of crack.
