smoking
n.— «Getting “smoked,” or “a smoking” as it is also referred to, is a slang term in the military used to describe a tough and usually relatively quick work out normally used as a punishment. Everyone in Civilian World would call it “drop and give me 20.” It’s not correct as it’s not a long enough workout, but you get the idea. A phrase that can be used to mean the same thing is “scuffed up.” Smokings can be conducted individually or en masse.» —“Beat your face!” by dreadcow Fun With Hand Grenades Apr. 19, 2005.
