Supplemental InfoSubculture slang turns out to be much more extensive than I would have guessed when I began this project, and consequently some of the material I developed for the book had to be cut to make the book fit. As it was, I was very grateful when Michelle Ehrhard, my editor, petitioned for and got more space for the book to allow it to reach its present, chunky size of 400 pages.As time permits, I'll post some of the additional material we were unable to fit into the book here, including extended introductions and additional terms. For now, I've posted the single largest thing we had to cut out: drug name synonyms. You might be surprised--I certainly was--at the incredible number of slang synonyms there turn out to be for each individual controlled substance. |
