I sent an invitation for a date to my baby momma instead of my boo. I thought I was asking my boo about going to Applebees to get that Bourbon Street steak with the Oreo shake and then I realized it was the baby momma and immediately realized I sent the wrong text to the wrong person and wrote Ohhh Not Good (ONG) text. She knew what I did and asked for the child support money.

doorwall 

A door wall is a sliding-glass door or patio door. The term is yet another example of banal Michigan vernacular, where in the residents latch on to company names, trademark names, marketing terms and product names from local companies. The terms become embedded in the local vocabulary and eventually become accepted as actual valid words and phrases. In this case the term comes from Wallside Windows in Taylor, MI (a large window manufacturer), where 'door wall' is their created word for sliding-glass door.
