[ "subtract the "O"" ]
1: - Commonly used at social events to take action in escaping the aoe of a certain individual (more than often a snoody, stuck up cunt).
Explained: To subtract the "o" from snood would make the word snod (an adjective for smooth, sleek). So by leaving the "O", one's current position is relieved of the snood, and life goes on.
* e.g., ... Guy 1: "I can't stand this, my bitchometer just went off.. I'm gonna have to subtract the "O"
Guy 2: "Feelings mutual brother, it's a shame she's practically shielding the jungle juice from the whole damn party..."
