jay

jaywalk

To walk across a street outside of a marked crosswalk or without regard for traffic rules. (A "jay" is a dated term for a foolish or naïve person.) Come on, the crosswalk is right here—there's no excuse for jaywalking. A: "Can you believe that cop just wrote me up for jaywalking? Unbelievable!" B: "Of course he ticketed you—you stepped right out in front of traffic!"

vajayjay

slang A vagina. The term was popularized after being used on a 2006 episode of the TV show Grey's Anatomy, whose writers chose it due to censors' objection to multiple instances of the word "vagina."
