TOD = Time O' Day (when strangers flirt or leer at you) - "I have to wear this shirt more often, because I got all kinds of TOD from cuties on the way to work today." Here we would say the opposite, ie, I wouldn't give them the time of day, meaning; I wouldn't speak to them. .... [Edited 8/31/05 17:07pm] TOD is like something you measure - "I got about five minutes of TOD on the train this morning! I was about to ask him to take a picture, it'd last longer!" | |

fruit loop - a walk around the gay bar to see and be seen - "This music is awful. I'm bored. I'm gonna do a fruit loop, see if anyone else is here yet."
kidding on the square - (from Al Franken, but I use it quite a bit) when you say something jokingly to someone to tease them, usually a mild insult, but you're kinda serious too I can't think of anything else at the moment... |

my manor = where I come from. i.e that's my manor.
stomping ground = where you might spend a lot of time, but might not come from there. kerfuffle = which is one of my favourite words, means when something is a bit of a commotion. e.g. I went to buy a newspaper and it was a right kerfuffle. or a right "palaver," which also means it was involved or difficult. ...

I'm pretty sure that "I'm going to put my foot up your ass!" means "I admire you" because I hear that from LleeLlee a LOT and I know she admires me...

Wifey is a female or girlfriend that has qualifications to be a man's wife. It started in Jamaica. A guy who has two females would call his main chick or girlfriend "wifey" and the other woman "matey" or the other mate. Now whose flat top rules in '89? - Big Daddy Kane | |

BoOTyLiCioUs said: anyone?
When ur considered 'wifey material' u may be the type to make him leave all of his other 'clucks' (see chickenhead) alone and possibly settle down. Don't expect him to leave them all alone right away though. Don't be fooled into seeing it as affection. In pimp lingo the main bitch is similar to wifey. Out of all the hoes in the stable she is supposedly the only one he has sex with, the most beutiful one or the one makes the most money. That is, until she gets too old or comfortable. Then he looks for more wifey (main bitch) material. The thing is the wifey part never actually materializes into marriage per se, it really is just a title. Shake....shake, shake, shake. | |

Dat's feddi/fed
"I like that. I think it is nice." Dat's bootsey "I don't like that, it's stupid." Riiiiight STFU!/whatever STFU. Usually said sarcastically after someone says something stupid as a way of patronising them and changing the subject. If said in a different tone however, while looking at something nice, it could mean that they liked what they saw. For instance: "Her ass was riiiiight!" Bang ie: " we can bang right now! Its whatever! "U really upset me just now to the point of considering physical violence towards u. Could u please step outside with me?" Note: That person may also get shot. Shake....shake, shake, shake. | |
