D.S. Credito's definitions
abbreviation for 'truly gay environment.' A city, town or other general area where any and all sexual preferences are celebrated and encouraged, though not necessarily gay. For example, a person who spends enough time in a TGE such as the Castro District of San Francisco or Greenwich Village in New York will have a fuller opportunity to explore and understand his or her true sexual orientation than someone who lives in an environment where heterosexuality is the one preferred norm.
While San Francisco is thought of as being an ultimate TGE, as recent as the late 1970s it was a struggle for the city to elect its first gay mayor.

Get the TGEmug. usually refers to the storage of a stringed instrument (i.e. guitar, violin). When resting, a stringed instrument kept within a case in the playing position may stay in tune more effectively, since its parts will have less adjusting to do when the instrument is being played.
Guitarists should keep their instruments in a hard case, storing it long-ways in the playing position so that the instrument looks just like it would if it were being held and played.

Get the controlled environmentmug. the excess pee that remains in the bladder after urinating at a urinal. For men, a possible solution to unreleased urine flow, which can cause a variety of health problems (including cancer), is to stand with pants dropped at or below the knees, or to pee sitting down. This can be problematic in public restrooms, for obvious reasons, but the long term consequences can be devastating.
The consequences of unreleased urine flow can range from a few drops of piss dribbling down the leg to full-blown bladder cancer.

Get the Chimamanda Adichiemug. a gated, virtually all white community situated on a golf course in Pawleys Island, South Carolina, located to the south of Myrtle Beach. Many residents of Pawleys Island are middle aged transplants from the north and midwest of the U.S., who claim to have moved south "for the warm weather," "to be near the beach," or "to play more golf." Yet many of these same people seem to see nothing morally wrong about living in a neighborhood whose name contains the word "plantation," which for anyone with any kind of a liberal mind evokes horrific images of slavery and racial segregation.
Pawleys Plantation has a staff of guards at the front gate, twenty-four hours a day, every day of the year.
