reminisco wrote:okay, here's a thread devoted to clearing up any slang expressions that might not be immediately recognized.

if i say "good lookin", as in the below:

thanks man. good lookin.

this is short for "good looking out". it's an expression that is rather common in Philadelphia and NYC, but maybe not in Britain or Australia or even in other parts of the USA or Canada.

"good looking out" means "thanks for handling that situation" or "good work/job" -- that's the gist of it.

it is not a compliment on someone's looks. feel free to post other slang expressions and their meanings in this thread.


When I say "good lookin" I am invariably singing the song:

Heeeey good lookin! Whatcha gotta cookin? How 'bout cookin something up for meeeee?
