I think that is one of the things I really enjoy about having the Friday night young gun tech night at the shop. It keeps me in the loop with the latest in cars and the evolution of our language. Gotta bump = got to go, See ya in a b time= Later or maybe tomorrow, In a minute doesn't a minute= some time in the next few hours. example... "Gotta run to the part shack for some brake shoes, back in a minute". And the drifter terms are off the hook. Problem is I forget sometimes and start talking like them. Young guys get it and old guys my age have no clue. But I have noticed more older guys showing up on Friday night so who knows who is going to influence who? It will be an interesting brain flex (Study) to see how it works out. I will start making a list of car terms and bring everyone up to speed unless we have a few young guns here that play in both yards? Oh, and a M-ride is the motorcycle, c- ride is the car, and t-ride is the truck. "Peel and Steal" is the 1/2 price parts day at the local wrecking yard. They don't steal it, it is such a good price they compare it to stealing. Doing the peel & steel this weekend. You don't drink beer... are we doing a wash tonight? or I'm bringing the wash tonight... Go figure? Maybe it came from washing down the chips? And then we have all the surfer terms that I wont get into.
