Verb, to plead the fifth In a United States court case, to cite one's own Constitutional right in the Fifth Amendment to "remain silent" as a defendant, or to not be forced to testify against one's self.

V. To decline to give self-incriminating information. Refers to the fifth amendment of the US Constitution, which states that no citizen "shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself..." Urban Dictionary

This is a concept I invented similar to pleading the 5th in a court of law where, if you find yourself in a situation, inebriated, whether high, drunk or otherwise and completely at a loss for what your expected to say or do next You can declare: "I plead the 6th" and you are magically off the hook, as this simultaneously informs others that you have blanked out and have no idea what you were just talking about 2 seconds ago, while also relieving you of any responsibility for whatever word or deed would have come next if you had not forgotten in the first place. So, similar to how the witness in court gets to avoid answering a question by pleading the 5th, the stoned/ drunk/twacked out goofball who forgets what they are talking about midsentence during an important conversation or epic explanation is freed of the weight carried by that awkward moment that exists in the seconds that follow the total forgetting of some vital fact. Urban Dictionary

A refusal to answer a question because the response could hold self incriminating evidence. Urban Dictionary

Name of the mental mechanism that allows people to make exceptions to an otherwise self-accepted statement without being hounded by guilt. Urban Dictionary

Similar to plead the fifth (remain silent), except this refers to the Second Amendment (right to bear arms). In layman's terms, it means to whip out a gat. Urban Dictionary

To plead guilty in the hope of getting a reduced sentence or some other consideration. Urban Dictionary
