that’s a rip


a rip (not to be confused with rip-off) is a slang term which can refer to anything comical, hypocritical, or embarr-ssing in nature. the term grew popular in northern california in the early 2000s and eventually became common norcal schoolyard slang along with h-lla, hecka, and the term norcal itself. its usage is commonly accompanied with a rough “stripping” motion on the back of one’s neck, as if removing the tag on his/her shirt. its usage continues to grow around the region’s schools.
kel: “i know the names of everybody in the room.”
joe: “well then, what is his name?”
kel: “i don’t know.”
joe: “that’s a rip.” -strips the back of kel’s neck-
a rip is when someone says or does something that turns out to be wrong. when they do, you can say “that’s a rip.”

depending on how it works in your area, you can also inflict pain to the people who got ripped.
joe: john’s in the steakhouse, i swear!
-john walks out of a supermarket-
david: …that’s a rip.
