bootleg
adj.— «The whole joke is the yin-yang twins and the fact that they’re 100% bootleg. For those of you who don’t know, bootleg is the new word that the cool kids use to describe some that is ghetto in a bad way. For example, a 1986 ford tempo with three rims and a homemade spoiler is bootleg.» —“Yup, I’m still Lazy” by Grady Grady Rocks Sept. 20, 2004. (source: Double-Tongued Dictionary)
