canon35 Posted November 21, 2015 Posted November 21, 2015 Basically a thread to come up with slang for our characters to use in the year 2457. I'll probably be updating it as it goes on. -Smeggo, an insult that is used to call someone gay/weak, considered homophobic. -Guzzoline, blanket term for fuel. -dakka, firepower. -unit, term to refer to male friends, unette is female version. -null, means bored. -bonesprocket, killjoy.

Frances Posted November 21, 2015 Posted November 21, 2015 Hotdog: term used to refer to the ERT shuttle, as it is hotdog-shaped. Quote
Jboy2000000 Posted November 21, 2015 Posted November 21, 2015 Bosh'tet: Derogative term for Tajarans. Urdnot: Unathi compliment meaning strong and wise. Horns-For-Brains: Racist term for Unathi. Sun Salts: Tajaran drug. Pretty much Moon Sugar from ES. Quote
Guest Menown Posted November 21, 2015 Posted November 21, 2015 Catbeasts - Tajara Catbeasts - Unathi Catbeasts - Skrell Catbeasts - Diona Catbeasts - Humans Quote
Killerhurtz Posted November 21, 2015 Posted November 21, 2015 Bosh'tet: Derogative term for Tajarans.Urdnot: Unathi compliment meaning strong and wise. Â Oh you salarian you. BUT YES - if we want to go there, Firefly has a nice collection right here. My favorites: Bughouse: Mental Hospital Fuzzie-wuzzies: Someone who's easy to manipulate Mite: Small amount. Can also be used sarcastically (as in: "We've got a mite amount of damage" when 50% of the place is breached) Moonbrained: Dumb or crazy. Sly: Another piece of slang to imply homosexuality The Black: Space Doxy: Prostitute OTHERWISE there's also a few Mass Effect classics as above (translated to an Aurora context): Cloaca: Human insult to Unathi, equivalent to 'lizard dickhead' Boomstick: Hot-headed member of either Security or ERT Sparks: Derogatory term that refers to engineers. A few more that I mostly came up with: (To)Tin, Tinning, Tinned: Terms referring to cyborgification and the people who go through with it. Squiggly, Squiggles: Derogatory term that refers to Skrell Brambles: A generic term that specifically refers to Diona security members Wallflower: A generic term that specifically refers to Diona scientists Boiled Egg: Derogatory term that refers to scientists - implies they aren't doing anything. Stems from the old insult 'egghead'. Fedive[Noun], (To)fedive[verb], fedivic [adjective]: Human slang for synthetics (90% of the time, IPCs) with who they disagree with. Examples: "Synthetics aren't superior, you fedive!", "You're suggesting we DON'T evacuate the station? You're fediving." "Yeah I don't know why that IPC's allowed in command, they tend to be... fedivic.". Refers to the Pentium FDIV bug, suggesting they're processing things wrong. Crayfish: Refers to a malfunctioning synthetic (AI, IPC, borgs). Refers the (by then) antiquated CRAY computers. Will come up with more later Quote
Conservatron Posted November 21, 2015 Posted November 21, 2015 this is engineering specific, but i tend to just make up things on the spot instead of actually saying the right thing Particle Accelerator - Musicmaker (because it makes the 'Sing') Sparkler - a shocked door uh, i cant think of any other 'future' slang I use, most of it is just current stuff Quote
