whitey

RFV-sense: "(UK, slang) The state of sickness." tagged but apparently never listed. - -sche (discuss) 23:10, 5 February 2015 (UTC)

I've cited it. Seems to be mostly drug slang. Smurrayinchester (talk) 10:24, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

The citations look good. I've revised the definition a bit; defined as "the state" I would have thought to look for it with the definite article, whereas the citations of "a whitey" suggest it means something more like "a period (bout) of sickness". - -sche (discuss) 05:29, 9 February 2015 (UTC)

Whitey

I've heard people use the term "whitey" to refer to a negative marijuana experience in the States. if it's crossed the pond, does it make sense to qualify the entry as "british"? Quasinanopraeverbium (talk) 18:44, 13 December 2015 (UTC) Quasinanopraeverbium (talk) 18:44, 13 December 2015 (UTC)
