Do you know the slang meaning of solar panel? Suburban Dictionary is a fun-loving user's guide to Suburbanese, and a guide to the quirky behavior found in the burbs. The snarky and the cheeky make many appearances, with generous helpings of sarcasm. Euphemisms, a hallmark of suburbanese, get special treatment. We give a nod to cul-de-sac personalities, such as the neighborhood eccentric and the Goth kids. The recluse a few doors down makes a (rare) appearance. You Should Read this Book If: * You enjoy snarky language; but also enjoy amusing and charming expressions. * You like a good zinger or comeback. * You can't say ''suburban'' without saying Bourbon. * You wonder about the slang meaning of solar panel, ''dual equipment, and bird bath. You wonder what wet leaves means in Japanese slang. There was a need for a book that talks about things that can get you into trouble - sex and drugs - but does so with expressions that hopefully won't get you into trouble, should you repeat them. Suburban Dictionary rises to the occasion. Compiled during years of research, Suburban Dictionary was written by Timothy Fay. A writer with over 15 years of experience, Tim is a former reporter at the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. A friendly warning: collecting slang and sarcastic expressions is addictive. Please leave a review. Thanks, Hanks.
