I want to undertake a project that is like a dictionary of slang that is unique to Vancouver.

Its gonna be like urban dictionary but more Vancouver-oriented. Does anyone know a good or free platform to use??

btw does anyone want to participate in this too??

[AutozamAZ-3]

Sounds like an interesting project. I would totally support you and help you out.

How many entries do you think there would possibly be?

[SkinnyPupp]

RS will be getting a wiki soon, you can put it in there :)

[BaoXu]

quite a lot actually. I've always thought that Vancouver has a very interesting slang.

[CorneringArtist]

I'd be somewhat down for this. I've got friends here in Surrey that I never hear anywhere else if you intend to include the rest of the GVRD.

Also, I wonder who will write the AsNoobAsItGets and 14 dolla balla wiki entries.

Cool!

Vancouver is an island-city in Western Canadia that calls itself Hollywood North, also known as the city of bums, but everyone knows is just a lame excuse for a Canadian SeattleSan FranciscoPortland. Currently Vancouver is hosting the LOLympics.

[!Tigger]

what would there be? Hongcouver,, thats the only one i can think of

[LiquidTurbo]

^ 14 dollar baller, for starters.

[TRDood]

revscene already have at least a handful of classics.

[ShadowBun]

this will be interesting

[BrRsn]

man everyone should know about these c lais

[frojoe]

Can we get a list of potential entries for (my) entertainment?

[woob]

2 words I use with some regularity:

foig: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=foig
ceeb: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=ceeb

[BaoXu]

LOL... wow I have never heard of foig nor ceeb.

what's the best platform to do this in? I originally thought of wiki, but it doesn't look as friendly as urbandictionary.. I want a platform like urbandictionary where people can also define it themselves or comment on the definition or add their own.

I grew up in east van and burnaby so I kinda know the ghetto urban slang

[SkinnyPupp]

Wait for the RS wiki

okay since we are on topic.. are people from vancouver the only ones who use the term "lg"? cause apparently alot of people dont know that it stands for little girl..

[DanHibiki]

I dated a Toronto girl who has never heard the term "honger" til she got to Vancouver. None of her friends back in TO heard of it too.

I never heard that term except on RS. It seems like nothing more than a PC version of "jailbait" anyway

It's not very common in HK either. You hear more people use "Hongky" instead, which I think is stupid

[ShadowBun]

reminded me when I was using the term LG all my friends thought I was referring to the brand.

i guess lifes good for little girls

i know couple of ppl that use it. first heard it from a flip guy.

[skyxx]

Pedobear's slogan is "Life's good when you have Little girls"

You're probably going to end up with a bunch of nerd/internet slangs or RS inside jokes. No one's going to get it and it'll make Vancouver look weird.

The epitome of baller; one who makes 14 Canadian dollars every 60 minutes of performing their managerial job at Church's Chicken on 41st and Fraser. Signs and symptoms include: wearing the same clothes every day, buying fake Oakley sunglasses from Night Market, bicep push. :haha:

CP beats LG

[TOS'd]

What about BBT, is that more of a here asian thing/canadian thing? Cause I've talked to a while bunch of ppl from the states and they all are like wtf? its boba.


There seems to be 2 topics going on in this thread. One which people think it is about specific people/events (which would work great with the upcoming wiki). But OP's idea si slang words used here, not storys or famous RS people etc.

[Peturbo]

^Captain happy bubble? It's awesome.

[SkinnyPupp]

btw now would be a fine time to start thinking of a name for the wiki...

yah.. I find that too! When I'm talking to my frds in the States and say bbt, they have no idea what I'm talking about. When I tell them, then they're like ohhhhhh, you mean boba!

[Qmx323]

i first heard book it in grade 7 around 2001.

confused me why the word book was used but shit it was catchy

[skyxx]

According to Big Boards.com Stripers Online is beating us. That name is deceiving, I went to it and it's all about fishing....FUCK....

I did some more browsing and Pokemon forums is doing pretty well. HAHAHA

[SkinnyPupp]

^^^ They are going on some really outdated info because I disabled the members list on the front page. Maybe now that we're on a new server we can run it again ;)

[skyxx]

Good cause I don't want RS to get beat by Strippers online. ;)

[Vansterdam]

vansterdam would count as vancouver slang :)

[VK79]

Hongcouver, Chinada.
Twanger (cousins who live in SF use Honger/Nammer/Flip all the time but strangely not Twanger)

[Raid3n]

scenepedia

REVpedia?

[Ulic Qel-Droma]

retardepedia.

[Mr.Jay]

^ REVtardepedia

Best of both worlds

Why can't we keep it simple and call it REVscenepedia. It sounds fine. :/

Or RSwiki.

[jeff_alexander]

.

[tiger_handheld]

RiSki

its a combination of RS + Wiki

it'll also be risky for the people that get on there such as Brad Chow, 14 dolla balla
