Shotgun Snap

When somebody sends a (usually generic) snapchat to multiple people at once, in the hopes it will spur popularity with them, begin convos with somebody, or keep a streak alive.
Also includes when somebody sends the same snapchat they've posted to their story to other people directly.

Derives from "shotgun texts" & "shotgun messages"

Shotgun shine 

This is an expression related to the blueing of a gun - specifically a high-end shotgun. In the South especially, a finer shotgun would have a "blueing" or a "blue" of the steel that was accomplished by way of the quality of the steel and the effort of the person who owned the gun polishing it. "Shotgun shine" is a simplification/symbolism of this concept and a way of saying that a person has a killer instinct; however attractive they may be. It's not necessarily a positive expression, and surprising that in the nearly 25 years since Alabama 3 used it, and since the Sopranos used it in this manner exactly, that no one else has put it on Urban Dictionary.
It's a shame about little Johnny Sack - he's got such potential in real estate, but also that shotgun shine.

True Canadian Shotgun 

A True Canadian Shotgun (TCS) is the best pick-me-up for any time of the day. Although this shot gun uses Tim Hortons coffee instead of beer there is still some alcohol involved. A TCS is made up of three liquids: Tims coffee in a Tims to-go cup (as mentioned before), Canadian maple syrup, and Canadian rye whisky (preferably Crown Royal).

To do a TCS you first make sure the lid to your coffee is on well, then flip the cup upside down and poke a hole into the cup, just like you would if you were shotgunning normally. Then add a shot of whisky to the coffee and shotgun away. After you have shotgunned the coffee and whisky mixture use Maple Syrup as a chaser.

A good drinking game to play is whenever you see a moose you have to do a True Canadian Shotgun. (Best played when in Newfoundland)

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
