What new bit of language are you hearing at the moment? We want to hear words and phrases, with definitions and where it's being used. We're interested in marketing speak, stuff from kids in playgrounds etc.

clused
derivative of "closed" pronounced "cloozed" and usually said really fast, sometimes in conjunction with "nu!" (no).
some uses -
"nu nu nu nu nu clused" = no, absolutely not, end of discussion.
in response to a proposition to drink more = "no, i'm drunk enough" or "no, i'm about ready to go to bed"
can also refer to the state of being cut off from the bar, whether voluntarily or no, eg.
"he was overly rowdy last night, so he's clused for a week" or "nah, i'm not feeling well so i'm clused tonight. tomorrow i'll give 'er though."
that reminds me, give 'er (or just giv'r)! if you haven't seen "fubar" go rent it. again, several meanings...
1) drink a lot, as in "whoa, you look like hell this morning." "yeah, i really gave 'er last night."
2) something like "okay, i'm ready" or "go ahead"
3) common thing to say before doing shots somewhat like a toast
4) work really hard
woo for alcoholic kid's camp staff...
