"Sick"
Researcher 225203 Started conversation Apr 19, 2003
"Sick" is used among skateboarders, rollerbladers, and BMX bikers, to mean something that is really good. If someone completes a complicated trick or stunt, others would say, "That's sick!" It is used in the same place as "cool" or "sweet." I thought this would make an interesting entry.
