This thread is about terms you have come up with that you use in your own speech, everyday. It's like urbandictionary, but for us WPers.

I have two terms to start off with:
----
Band of Brothers: 1) The name of a popular HBO miniseries about the Easy Company in WWII, 2) a man's best male friends.

Joining the Herd: 1) Becoming a fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, 2) For a man, having his woman getting married, the woman is joining his herd.

creepzoned: the act of being assigned a social status, somewhat less than being "friendzoned" and somewhat greater than being a criminal. "Dude, she pointed you out to the bouncer! You've been creepzoned!"

gynotropic: attracted to females. "I am a gynotropic male."

Stebbinating; v. : leaking badly from what ought to be an airtight enclosure

CAB; n. : Carne Asada Burrito - chopped grilled steak, rice, beans, salsa and guacamole wrapped in a flour tortilla

Cat salad; n. : Carne Asada Taco salad - same as CAB with the addition of lettuce, shredded cheese and sour cream, with the flour tortilla fried into a bowl shape

4-joke; n. : derogatory term for a 4-stroke engine used in the wrong applications where durability, DEcreased oil consumption, easy and economical maintenance and repair, longevity, higher return on fuel efficiency and horsepower per displacement, and instant power delivery are requirements. (Every living and man made thing pollutes, a 2-cycle engine gets a bad rap from people seeing the smoke but is far less harmful to the planet on a larger scale. Logic dictates!)

Blasting; v. : traveling on a surface street at a higher rate of speed than prevailing traffic, a higher rate of speed than the machine was originally engineered for, or a bitchin combination of the two

Cager (OLD biker term but I still get asked about it) : n. : automobile driver who operates with negligence, ignorance, malice and/or behaves belligerently toward others who choose alternative transportation and who have just as much right to be on the road as the subject does.

Hippo; n. : Sport Utility Vehicle or 'crossover' - cf. many of them resembling the shape of the hippos in the game Hungry Hungry Hippos.

Convict's Cadillac; n. : gasoline-powered Go-Ped with a bicycle seat attached, has a pull-start engine, inadequate brakes and no lighting. Mainly seen waiting at a crosswalk or darting into view from between 2 parked cars. Operator often carries no valid driver's license and appears to be freshly released from incarceration, hence the name. Once widely sold at Pep Boys Auto and outdoor markets. See also Parolee's Porsche and Felon's Ferrarri

Downburgle: (v.) To break into someone's home who is poorer than you are.

CPA: Chicken-Pork Adobo; a dish prepared from chicken, pork, soy sauce, white vinegar, garlic and maybe a bay leaf or two (black pepper to taste). It is served with steamed white rice, and is a staple of the Filipino diet.

morning coffee isn't kicking in...i have a whole daninary full of terms i use that are my own.....think?

freefairing- sneeking into a place that has a cover charge

i'll post more as i think of them.
i like this thread, the reason i have my own daninary is when i hear a word used and don't know it a lot of times i use context clues and fill in my own meaning, and i'm not good at it?
