slugs


A word used after another person has farted. If used before the farter says "vince", it allows the speaker to visit violence upon the farter: "Slugs!" "Ow!!" Compare vince, badger. Also, slug six.

Contributor's comments: Back in the eighties in Queensland, we used "Six" and "Safe" for similar fart related violence. (Six punches to the upper arm if you were too slow on the "Safe").

Contributor's comments: [Sydney informant] We always used to call this "slug six" at school, in that if someone yelled out slug six before you said safe, they had the right to slug you six times.

Contributor's comments: Hadn't heard of this one, but used slugs and vince as a kid at school age.
