I'm writing an article, and I need to use a bit of street lingo to describe some stuff...What I mostly need is words that mean the opposite of what they actually sound like. For example: wicked > good, mad > crazy good, sick > great etc... I also need words that sound good, but mean bad, if that makes any sense? Post em here if you can, thanks. |

there's always "bad" pretty simple. pretty much used the same way wicked is used. um, my minds currently blank on the slang, so, sry. ------------------ |

You might come across something like that in a hip-hop lingo site (or just a hip-hop site), although there's a lot of bling-bling bang-bang stuff to wade through! |

oh, and when something's good it's "the crap". i wonder if people understand how true that is when they're talking about the material things of this world. [This message has been edited by bennythebear (edited February 25, 2004).] |

Noone but the Northern Irish understand Northern Irish. I'll be nice and translate for you Bout ye big Mawn wots craíc? Hearos cheeky wee slabbers did yer windys in. Bout ye - How are you Big Mawn - Friend Wotsa craíc? - Whats new. Hearos - I hear those cheeky wee slabbers - kids with no respect for ppl who insult others a lot. did yer windy's in - For someone's windowso n their house being broken by stones thrown at them overall the sentence means How are you my friend, whats new? I hear those cheeky kids broke your windows with stones. |
