College slang

I was just going thru some of the posts by vindy and i found an very interesting post on IIT slang.Just wanted to refurbish the college slang which we used to use during our times at CIT.the list is as follows.

Soorai - Means awesome
mandai - fundoo guy
peter - english peseravan
nancy - female counterpart of peter
pazham/fruit - innocent studious chap
weightaa?? - is it so great
soora kadi - unbearable joke
freeya vidu - leave it free
CUP - arrears in semesters and midsems
soora galeej - yuck
padama?? - another corollary to weightaa
kadalai - flirting

i guess this is all i can recall.any other slang u TN collegeguyz can remember plz do post them in the comments section(non IIT and BITS).i sure know all the iIT and BITS slang coz i hear them everyday. courtesy: maama ponnu and paiyyan.

Hi!
Nice blog there!
There is this slang whose origin i am trying to find out! (I mean I ve spent some non-trivial time analysing it...)
"Thanniya Kudi.." is used to shut a guy's mouth and say he has talked (futile talk; can also mean long gibberish or any futile act) enuf/too much and he has to go and drink some water to cool himself off.

Note, Vivek telling that to his dad in the movie "Run".. This has been my personal favourite for quite some time now..
