Dreamspell

Some new-age bullshit interpretation of the Mayan calendar by a nit-wit named Jose Arguellas who thinks he's an incarnation of an ancient Mayan prophet or some shit. Basically he has a bunch of ignorant hippies thinking that the Mayans were cosmic alien galactic travelers and that the end of the world is coming in 2012. *sigh* When will people learn?

Hippie #1) What is your Dreamspell galactic signature?
Hippie #2) Blue Magnetic Eagle
Skeptic #1) Hey you air heads - you realize the Mayans never used that new age mumbo-jumbo terminology right?

ras clot

One of several variations of Jamaican / Rasta vulgarities derived from bloodclot It is used as a catch-all swear word, often in the place of bullshit, fuck or shit and definitely has a negative connotation. All derivations come from the Jamaican view of women's menstrual blood as taboo and unsavory. See also bumbaclot

Come straight with me and don't give me any of that ras clot.

chinger

A chinger is a telephone fraud device that mimics the frequency made by a pay telephone when money was dropped into it. Putting money in the coin slot caused a DTMF or Dual Tone Multi Frequency signal to be sent out to the central switching box which registered it and when enough money had been inserted into the phone would connect the call. The chinger could mimic that sound and thus produce the equivalent effect of dropping a quarter into the pay phone.

So basically, a chinger allowed the user to make unlimited free calls from certain pay phones. They could be made using a simple pocket electronic address book sold at Radio Shack, and replacing the chip inside to alter the output sound.

They were also known as "red boxes" but the name chinger probably referred to the chiming sound it made when mimicing a quarter drop.

Most modern pay phones no longer use the DTMF tones, rendering the chinger obsolete... but it was fun while it lasted!

Hey gimme that chinger I need to make a phone call.

Leab

Chad told them they weren't worth his time anymore and that he was going to leab the group.
