A motorcycle in which a shaft is used to transfer the power to the back wheel (as opposed to chain or belt).

The main benefit of shaft drive is low maintenance and high durability; it is thus used on many touring motorcycles. The disadvantages of shaft drive are extra weight, extra complexity, and inability to change final drive gear ratios. Thus, most sports/racing motorcycles use chain drive.

Words you can keep
A shaftie is a motorcycle that is so incredibly rubbish it is physically incapable of wheeling. Weighing more than Russel Grant on his way home from doing a big shop in an armoured car, riding a bike without a chain is like anal sex without lube. Unnecessary and quite unpleasant.

Refers to a resin compound that is refined using shitty pipe or bong residues, combining the words Shatter and After, it's defined as Shafter also because you are basically shafting the rules of comprehension, science, possibility, by recycling often rinsed/lossed cannabis material that accumulates in smoking equipment. Shafter is cristallised and isolated through a simple process, to a resin that is still very, very potent and rich in cannabinoids.

Side-shafting

During the act of fellatio, the one who is sucking will suck one of the sides of the suckee's penis up and down, thus side-shafting. Side shafting may lead to what is known as the 'Ultimatum of Pleasure' which is the pre-ejaculation stage.
During a blowjob, the female may or may not side-shaft the man depending on how experienced she is or how good she wants the blowjob to be for the male.
Side-shafting can occur during a session of getting your cock sucked well.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
