Subwoofing - sitting in your car playing your stereo with your mates in a parking lot but not driving. You just sit there and act cool with the windows rolled down. You want everyone to know how awesome your sound system is. Hey guys, did you see Mike and Nathan subwoofing in the parking lot? They have a mad sound system.

Are they for real? Where did you get your definitions from?? I especially love 'geeking' - in fact I believe i am geeking about the fact i just discovered it.
Hi Deb, yeah they are for real. I came across geeking in an article I was reading somewhere and searched for a meaning online. Urbandictionary.com was first site I found with meaning; not a site I would recommended though, some objectionable content. www.merriam-webster.com/info/new_words.htm is a great site for new words though. Catch you.
