Tire Turds

Those delightful little piles of crusty snow and ice that fall out of your wheel wells and mark your parking spot like a territorial winter animal. They're the automotive equivalent of breadcrumbs, except they tell the story of your commute through slushy hell. Consider them your car's way of shedding its winter coat, one gross clump at a time.

93-90s

Boston slang for suburbanites who drive in from outside the city via Routes 93 and 90, making them the Massachusetts equivalent of New York's "bridge and tunnel" crowd. These highway warriors brave terrible Boston traffic to enjoy city nightlife, much to the chagrin of actual city residents. They're identifiable by their confusion about the T and their willingness to pay $40 for parking.
