Question Ok I need a dictionary for TOV slang

Talk Host could we have a forum that just has posting slang definitions on it so easy to find. Everytime I run across one I don't know I search and can't find a definition or it used in a context that tells me what it is.

IE: FROG

Thanks
Trudy

Some words/slang/etc. are actually much more fun to tell someone what it means than have it written for them. To me, "frog" is in that category. I always crack up when people find out what a frog is -- so much more fun to be able to tell someone (and be told the first time around) than just reading it. Just my opinion,.

Good one! Actually, I jumped in probably seconds after you did, without even knowing you asked. Great minds think alike.
