Greek Sauce...(get it?)

I've officially been submerged into the "Greek" language, and I can barely speak my own native language.

So I've been known as the weirdo all my life with weird lingo, and certain words and sentences I piece together, I hardly know what it means. However when I did become part of a sorority and hang out more and more with greek people, I started to pick up certain things that I have honestly never heard before. Some phrases/words I actually do like and use from time to time, but there are just some words that I feel should be deleted from having that second connotation.

Ready, set, flow...

SWOOOOOOOOP!
ex: "I was gonna make out with DeAndre, but Deshawnda helllla swooooooped on me!"
Meaning someone inadvertedly cockblocked you. I actually do like this term, because it is sort of a swift movement that goes on, when someone does sweep that person from underneath your feet. Like, SWOOP THERE IT IS! Trust me, it happens a lot. So much that you need a saying that is short and sweet and straight to the point, I believe that SWOOP does that. The noun "Swooper" is even better, cause let's be honest, there are a lot out there, and sometimes I do prefer to be politically correct and say SWOOPER, instead of COCKBLOCKER in front of people. Especially children ages 3+

CROSS FADED
ex: "I can't drove home, I'm fucked up...I'm cross faded"
Okay, so technically I heard this term in highschool. However I was hoping that when I got to college that it was going to disappear because it sounds really stupid. It means that you're under the influence 2 different ways, usually high and drunk. I think it sounds more like something in MORTAL COMBAT or like TOKYO DRIFT. Like "Omg Scorpion just cross faded Sub Zero." Unfortunately that term is here to stay.

CUPCAKE
So I don't know if like Fat Joe invented this term or Rosie O' Donnell but I personally HATE this term.
ex: "Yoker is totally cupcaking with Jelissa" (yeah I tried it make it sound cholo)
WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT EVEN MEAN? Technically I guess it means to be sweet to someone. But if that were the case, why can't we use the term..."Donut?"
Like, "Dammmmmmmn Yoker is donuting with Jelissa" Same shit, different pastry.
All I know is, if someone refers to me dating someone as cupcaking, I will literally take a real cupcake and smash it in their face. Sorry, so angry. But food should never be a reference to romance...with one exception: "I love you like a fat kid loves cake". Thanks 50.

FAMS/Pseudo/Fave= Don't hate these terms, but don't love em either. What ever happened to calling people by their names, or by other terms of endearment like "booboo"?

THE PIT
okay...so this only really related to my school.
ex: "I parked at the pit, walk with me so I don't get buttraped!"
The pit refers to the area that is between 2 parking structures. I guess you could call it the middle, but the pit is more distinct. I surprisingly always park there so yes I do use the term. However only certain people call it that, and if you were to say it to anyone else, they would think you were crazy. I personally think "the pit" sounds like a ring for illegal cockfighting and drugs. "I picked up my meth at the pit" or "Yeah I got gonorrhea from the pit". Don't worry these sentences are fake, nothing like that goes on in the pit. I HOPE, OTHERWISE I HAVE TO FIND SOMEWHERE ELSE TO PARK.

So I could post up 589328502530 more words and phrases that I hear allll the time now in college, but I am on the verge of getting carpal tunnel syndrome (spelling?) or arthritis in my hands. Same shit, different term.

You get the point...

go slang!
