Skinfiltrator

A term used to refer to an individual who is circumcised but claims themselves not to be. This choice may be influenced by personal beliefs, psychological factors, or a desire to establish a connection with cultural or social groups.
Daniel isn't invited to this week's foreskin tug-of-war; turns out, he's a skinfiltrator.

Not all skinfolk are kinfolk

“Not all skinfolk are kinfolk” is a proverb, mainly used in Black American communities and now spreading to Black Western communities (including the UK).

It means:
Just because someone shares your race, background, or outward identity doesn’t mean they share your values, loyalty, or have your best interests at heart. Shared appearance is not the same as shared principles.

Put plainly:
Skinfolk = people who look like you or come from the same group

Kinfolk = people who truly have your back (like family in values, actions, and loyalty)

At its core, the proverb promotes discernment, judge people by how they act, not just who they appear to be.

How it gets abused:

Silencing disagreement:

Used against anyone who steps out of line

“You disagree? Then you’re not kinfolk.”

This shuts down honest debate by questioning loyalty instead of addressing ideas.

Gatekeeping identity:

Used to decide who is “authentic enough”

“You don’t think like us, so you’re not one of us.”

This turns community into a test rather than something genuinely lived.

Enforcing groupthink:

Pressures people to conform to one viewpoint. Independent thinking gets labelled betrayal—this isn’t unity, it’s control.

Personal attacks:

Instead of addressing arguments, it targets the person. “You’re not kinfolk” becomes a way to dismiss them entirely.

Excusing bad behaviour:

Wrongdoing is overlooked if it’s from “kinfolk” but condemned in outsiders, creating double standards.
Don’t assume loyalty just because someone looks like you—, not all skinfolk are kinfolk.”

A trip to a grocery store, convenience store, or gas station for the sole purpose of buying an excessive amount of junk food and sugary drinks, usually with friends. A chud run often happens late at night and ends with everyone involved hating themselves afterwards.

flophouse 

Any house/apartment/frat house/trailer/etc. which is used for individuals to crash (sleep, chill, hang out, lurk, etc.) for a period of time. In order to "crash", one must not actually live there (e.g. have their name on the lease, own said flophouse, etc.). Flophouses are typically used by college students, drug addicts, transients, vagrants, or other unsavory characters.

A flophouse may also be the home owned by the parents of a college student, who after being away at college, wishes to live as if he/she is still at college (e.g. staying out all night, returning just to crash at mom and dad's house, then leaving again), rather than conforming to the pre-college rules.
Example #1
Dude: (Talking to someone passed out face first on the floor of his college apartment) Hey man, who the hell are you? What do you think this is, a flophouse??

Bro: Sorry dude, I must have passed out for a minute.

Example #2
Mom: Where have you BEEN for the last three days? You come home just to sleep?? What do you think this is, a flophouse??!!

Son: What's your problem? I'm an adult now!
