Dirty in the Ditchisms

We decided that Dirty in the Ditch needs its own dictionary.

1. Dirty in the Ditch-a great excuse to put your lawn furniture in the ditch to sit and drink while watching traffic.

2. Traditionalist-individuals that pass by and remember you from the previous years.

3. Untraditionalist-individuals that pass by with a look of confusion, have never seen or participated in the festivities.

4. Baffled-untraditionalist who think they are missing a Mardi Gras parade.

5. Tinging-throwing beer caps in the street to hear a faint sound of alumni being blow down the street.

6. Travisty-when a drunk driver rolls over your mailbox.

7. Mitchification-process of breaking lawn furniture under extreme weight.

8. Stilts-people who are so short that when they get out of a vehicle you think they fell out of the vehicle.

9. Fashionistas-traditionalist that are confident enough to wear a crazy hat to the festivities.

10. Carnies-fair workers that walk down the street. You should fear these people and warn others about them. A typical warning is to chant "The Carnies are coming!
The Carnies are coming!"

We could only come up with a few. I know there are some traditionalist out there who may have their own ditchisms, so let me know if you can think of any.

Ok, I'm totally laughing. There has to be something about Baby Jesus, though.
