Rayban Effect 

The 'Rayban Effect' works with particularly with the males of our species. It is the instance in when a guy looks super fine while wearing a pair of rayban wayfarers, and in the act of removing them considerably lessens his appearance and 'coolness' factor.

The rayban effect is a modern problem for girls on the prowl, it is becoming increasingly harder to differentiate between true babes and guys under the rayban effect.

These men come under two categories, as seen below; with the option of mid range rayban effect as well.

High rayban effect: Hot with glasses, not without.

Low rayban effect: Hotness is simply ENHANCED with raybans, guy is still hot without.
Girl on the prowl no.1: "oh look at that babe there, high or low rayban effect??"

Girl on the prowl no.2: "Hmm..Potentially high I suggest we try get a profile view, it always helps."

Guy with rayban effect turns to side (and/or) removes sunglasses.

Girls no.1 & no.2: "ohh dear, it's a high. lets move on."

Raybanging 

Performing intercourse while donning dark sunglasses.

-Used primarily for an outdoor banging on a sunny day, Raybanging can also help give your sexual encounter a jazzy/undercover feel.

-Raybanging can be performed while in a number of sexual positions and is useful for individuals who do not particularly enjoy sex with the lights on, but still want to have it.

Raybanging is best when performed using vintage ray bans or aviators. It can be successfully performed with horned-rims, J-lo shades or clip-on shades, but doing so often compromises its authenticity and mystique.
ex.
Matt - "My girlfriend likes to do it with the lights on, but I'm tired of staring at that birth mark that looks like Jay Leno man."

Tommy - "The solution is easy bro. Just man up and raybang her."

ex. "The sun was hurting our eyes, so we slipped on some shades and enjoyed a good bit of raybanging."

Ray-Bans 

Absolutely amazing brand of sunglasses/glasses, most widely known for their aviators and wafers, but cost a hella alot of money. Like, $140. If you see someone wearing Ray-Bans, they clearly are well off since they can afford to pay that much for sunglasses. Yes, they are just delightful and everyone wants a pair, but you have to have some serious $$ for Ray-Bans.

Very straight forward way of showing off how rich you are.
That girl must be really rich... she has 4 pairs of Ray-Bans

Whenever I go to The Hamptons, everyone is walking around with Ray-Bans, even when it's cloudy out

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
