2008; Year of the Turbo































2008 is upon us and while I sat gripping the toilet bowl, vomiting the contents of the previous night's shindigs, I pondered on what the new year might bring. I know everyone at this time of the year are making resolutions, resolutions that will be forgotten by the time April swings around. Personally I don't bother, I have my own set of goals that I'm constantly working towards and I'll continue to do so in 2008. However, I will amend these goals, have a good look at them and consider which ones need crossing off or modifying. The only main resolution me and my wing have come up with is to move out by summer. This year, I will become 100% fully independent and in doing so become more of a 'man' so to speak.

I would also like to use this post to clarify the term 'Turbo Girl'. I originally heard the term from Jeffy, on RSDwiki they state;

A Turbo Girl is just a total Hottie, who frequents Clubs and Bars.

She is characterised by being extremely pretty and hot, often wearing skimpy or scantily clad clothing, while at the same time having a limited attention span. This is where the 'Turbo' aspect comes from.

She is sought after by all the guys in the club, and is the trophy to take home for a One Night Stand. Turbo Girls are the epitomy of Night Game.

Turbo Girls are the evolution of Glitter Girls.

Make from that what you wish, but keep in mind RSDwiki is editable by the public. On the other hand, me and my wing kind of made up our own definition of a Turbo Girl. We still don't always agree when one of us spies one, that is the problem when you start rating and labelling women, but that is another topic of discussion. Generally, 8 out of 10 times we do agree....

When we say Turbo Girl we are referring to the type of girl who looks like a WAG or wannabe. Liverpool is like Turbo City, that place is the capital of turbo's. They usually are pretty stylish and know how to make the best of what they have. Most of the time they are pretty hot, at least in my opinion, however, some of them are great at giving off the perception of being hot. But, when you actually see them up close they are pretty much average looking. Fake tan and designers labels are common as are extensions and false nails. Although the ability to make oneself more attractive through the use of style is the trademark of the turbo.

Bare in mind, I don't put these girls on a pedestal and turbo does not automatically make them hot. In fact most of the girls I've seen who match my 'perfect girl' so to speak weren't even turbo's. However, being out with guys I've noticed most kind of omit turbo girls when approaching. Even when discussing with the guys from Liverpool they commented on how bitchy the turbo's are, in reality I never found that to be the case. It seems guys just seem to be afraid of them because of the turboness they emit.

Anyway random turbo specific openers we've used in the past... 'the turbo opener'

"Hi Turbos" while waving re tardily

"Are you a turbo?" They usually give you a bamboozled look, before they can respond, 'shift sands'

In tune to the backstreet boys 'that way'

"You are..... a tur-bo
turbo..... yes you are"

Anyway, I hope this helps you to understand what I mean when I say 'Turbo Girl.
