I love how we went from innocent slang to millions of rude words. I just read "douche canoe" on Facebook. New favourite Watching "Family Guy" I heard Stewie talking "douchebag" too many times

Nobody talks like that. I'm just keeping it alive. Shame. Every city is a world in miniature. Full of all cultures nowadays.

"Riding shotgun" - sitting in the front passenger seat.
"i call shotgun"- you get the front passenger seat instead of sitting in the backseat.
