My slang is a few years old, but still can be used.

Things that are good are: phat, slammin’, the joint, nice, off the sheezy, the shit, the ish, the shiznit, the jump off, off the hook, fresh.

Things that are bad are: wack, stupid, fucked, ghetto, bootleg, cheesy.

Intensifiers: mad, stupid, like whoa.

This list compiled with the help of my 2 phat homies who are off the hook like whoa.

Nothing, and I mean nothing, makes me laugh on The Onion as much as Herbert Kornfeld. It’s even better if you read it out loud. He’s due for another column, don’t you think?

You’re gonna regret it, but what the hell, this is the board which brought you “squick” and “feltch”.

It’s a biker rite of passage which involves performing cunnilingus on a menstruating woman.

Oh my God, biker slang! That’s the best ever. Thanks, **bdgr**. Can I use it even if I don’t own a Harley, and likely never will because I am poor, poor, poor? If I must be a sidewalk commando, so be it.

I hear the newest thing to hit the streets when you’re excited for or proud of a woman is to say  
“YOU GO GIRL!”

Also, if someone’s bugging you, tell them to “Talk to the hand 'cause the face ain’t listenin.”

They’re really fresh phrases, though, may not have caught on everywhere…

See the definition of Rat above…

When I got my first bike, it was a 1967 BSA rat bike. It had a Puch gas tank, a wards riverside front fender, and mismatched chewed up parts all over it. I was poor,poor,poor myself back then(now I’m only poor), but I found this rat in a pawn shop for 400 bucks and I put it in layaway and bought it. Not a single person(excpet for a few smartass freinds) ever gave me shit about riding a brit bike.

My first Harley I built from throwaway parts. I got an old hippiekiller frame and front end for 175 bucks at a swap meet, and a set of cases with “questionable” numbers(I didnt know any better at the time) for another 100 or so, and started building. I went to every motorcycle shop out there that sold used parts and dug through the stuff nobody else wanted. Ugly, but functional. I got to know all the shop owners in DFW really well, in fact there have been many times I have walked into a shop dead broke, and walked out with the part I need, just on my word that I will pay when I get money.

I remember one shop in Enis that every time I walked in the door, he would get say Hey badger, I found this part over here thats really fucked up, its hideous, you need it.

In the end, I had a running harley panhead chopper, for around 1500 bucks. It took time, and it was but ugly, but it was mine. I had to sell it when I lost my job…Big mistake, and I built another one as soon as I was able. It was in a more conventional configuration, and looked good. It also cost me about 5 grand before it was all done(I got in a hurry). Still cheap for a 1953 harley davidson

I miss that one too, but I had to trade it for one with shocks when my back finally went.(I need to get a picture of it someday)
