Did you come up with those on your own? How many people in different states do you know that use that slang? Do you feel it's especially creative slang?

Do you have any slang that you personally devised?

Here are mine..

Mad: a substitute for "very" (That was mad good)
Grindage: food (I'm gonna go get some grindage)
Served: see GameMaster's explanation
Rad: cool (That was so rad)
Righteous: when something is very cool
Holy Detonators: from the old batman! I say it from time to time.
****tard: when someone is extremely stupid

Those are my used slang along with most of my friends in the area. Of course you have the ghetto slang, but I'm against most of that crap.

****tard sure has grown. I remember using it on gamingforce 3 years ago. Some guy claimed he invented it, but we really made it famous there. Now it's branched out. Heh.

How can you say ya'll made it famous? How do you really know? I've used the word tard my whole life, since my parents and many other older people use it from time to time.

****tard just seems like a natural progression of tard; in other words, not particularly clever.

EDIT: Oh by the way, I like flawgic. I'll be using that one..

usual stuff when playing video games:

"I got my mom raped" - i got beaten badly

"this is fuc*ing some bull$#!t" - not really slang but i use it at least 20 times every halo game (it's improper to put the f word AFTER "some")

"i'm out like a fat girl playing dodgeball" - I'm leaving

"this is teh blows" - this sucks (i hate myself for talking like i do on the internet, but oh well)

I think one of the only slang words I use is Straight, which has changed to a bunch of different meanings right now. It started at a party when some dude asked me if I wanted a drink, I said I was straight (cus I'm sXe) and declined, and he took it as "nah I'm fine" and it spread. Now I use straight to say I'm ok, fine, cool, etc.

Another way that I use the word straight is kinda like "neat" or "orderly". Like my hair is straight when it's clean cut and symmetrical or when someone’s clothes are sharp and clean.
