Slang term for GHB, an illegal drug. Urban Dictionary

Derogatory equivalent of "chink" for Western eyes from Eastern perspective. The eyes are so deeply indented that that area looks scooped out using an ice cream scoop perhaps as God made Man with clay. What's that saying in church..... God made Blacks because He fell asleep during cooking and accidentally overcooked them in the oven. Hence so much turmoil and tribulation throughout Black history as if God abandoned them. God made Whites because He got impatient and undercooked them. That's why Whites have stereotypical superiority complex - a way to overcompensate for inadequacies i.e. being undercooked. God made Asians because He cooked them just right - was attentive during cooking. That's why they're stereotypically wise beyond their years - fully developed. When a kid comes from loving parents/God, there's no need to strive to impress others or to push yourself; you're happy and content where you are. Turtling becomes your nature. Instead of conquering the world like British Empire to overcompensate for being undercooked, you focus on leisure activities such as fireworks and printing press because you already have everything in your Middle Kingdom. Scoop: like Scooby Doo's big nose - stereotypical Western nose. Also, synonym for "spook" since Whites are so pale that they look dead like walking corpses or ghosts. What Whites call Blacks in America are what Chinese call Whites in China: spooks/ghosts, monkeys etc. Monkeys in China have yellow fur or blond hair. Urban Dictionary

V. To concede a game. A losing player is said to 'scoop' up all of his pieces. Urban Dictionary

To pick up; as in pick up from a place and go with. Urban Dictionary
