I referred to food as "Ah-bin" as a toddler, not even sure what the hell it was supposed to mean...
"Thank you Ahk-um" was also my way of saying Thank You and You're Welcome at the same time.
Between me and my father, a Doomer usually refers to any small object or tool. Doomer.
I now refer to garbage picking as playing "The Freebie Game" after watching the italian gialo My Dear Killer the other week.
I played the freebie game a few weeks ago and found boxes full of 1/4 jacks, RCA jacks, XLR to 1/4 adapters and other badass things. Its a game a really love to play.

Watch those GI Joe PSA remakes. That pretty much sums it all up for me and my friends.

I used to have a bunch of these, but never really use them anymore:
the damns=anything of my personal liking, "That record is the damns!"
..well that's the only one I can remember off the top of my head. Sorry.
Oh. And I have a cousin who when he was young used to see the Chicago skyline & proclaim, "The news!" My only guess is that after watching the late local news for his entire childhood & seeing the omnipresent newsroom studio backdrop with the skyline on it, he associated the skyline with the news. He wouldn't just say it in reference to pictures, but would exclaim even whilst downtown!

My youngest brother would call water towers "E.T's spaceship."

Something that is very good (Ex: Goat by The Jesus Lizard) would be referred to as "king".
Something that is very bad (Ex: Album by Public Image Ltd.) would be referred to as "dog".
Here, in the American Southwest, the Mexican border is referred to as "the frontier". This comes from translating the Spanish word for border "la frontera". I guess that's more of a regional slang but I think it's interesting.

Bibble (n.)--The small, brown, stick-like thing that is at the end of the last bite of a banana.
Budget (adj.)--Anything that is not so good. Man, Santana plays that PRS and it still sounds budget.

I had so much pride for the word "slag" I made up. I went on Urban Dictionary and found it was already an entry with a similar definition of "slut." Those bastards.
