Jive: (Jiving, Jived) To jive is to joke, to talk nonsense, to say something which shouldn't be taken seriously. Can also be used in a more rough context, to be deceptive or phony.

Ex. Is that right? You ain't jiving me, are ya?

(Woah--talk about a [really] dead community, isn't there anyone else out there who wants to post some nice nostolgic phrases/words?)

The Cat's Meow - adj. - The term is a positive epithet, popular in the 30s and 40s, meaning, roughly "great, fine." yourdictionary.com
Today's synonym: Cool.

"Those new shoes are the cat's meow."

Origin: 30's and 40's slang.

This is such a retro phrase, and since our generation is all about retro, it's only natural that old slang phrases can be included in the fashion mix. Also, it refrences cats, and cats are cool!

Subject:Fartknocker

Current Music:Aphex Twin: Avril 14th
Security:
Fartknocker- n.- A person who does things without thinking them through; an idiot
Origin- Beavis and Butthead, perhaps as a play on anal sex

"OW! Cut it out, fartknocker! Heheh"

I remember people saying "Fartknocker" to each other when I was in elementary school. I thought it was the funniest thing I had ever heard, but I didn't know where it came from or why everyone was saying it so suddenly.
Anyways, I propose that it be resurrected as an everyday slang word, rather than just a relic of the 90's.

Subject:Dweeb

Time:06:02 pm
Since--so far--I am the one and only member, I am going to start off with Dweeb as the first choice of words to revive.

DWEEB - n. - A person regarded as socially inept or foolish, often on account of being overly studious.Taken from dictionary.com

"Hannah's such a dweeb, she won't skip english to go to Dunkins."

Origin Unknown.

I think "dweeb" should be on out list because it's such a silly word to say. Think about it: DWWEEEEEEEEBB. C'mon, doesn't it make you laugh??? And I know so many dweebs, I'd get to use the word like all the time!!
