#greaser

A working-class youth with slicked-back hair, leather jacket, and a love of cars and rock-n-roll.

To lose your cool, freak out, or get wildly excited.

A car stripped down and souped up for speed, the centerpiece of greaser culture.

Set for life, guaranteed to succeed, with nothing left to worry about.

A great-looking body — a compliment paid to an attractive person, especially a girl.

In mint, like-new, perfectly maintained condition — said especially of a car.

To excite or impress someone — that really thrills me.

Mature content — open to view.

A dull, boring, depressing situation or place — a total drag.

Mature content — open to view.

A punch in the mouth, served up as a threat.

Something hilarious or a really good joke — a big laugh.

A small child or annoying little kid underfoot.

To accelerate hard, spinning the tires — or to leave somewhere fast.

A great situation of comfort, prosperity, and good fortune.

A short, flat-out car race from a standing start — or something boring.

Asking for trouble — headed straight toward a beating or serious consequences.

Your home, apartment, or place to hang out.
