      IH Forum - VOCABULARY

      So it occurred to me recently that there are a lot of terms that are only used here. There are also words and expressions from around the globe that everyone from different regions brings/ shares with the IH Forum and general community.  Some specific words have been adapted here and taken on new meaning in our little community. Such words as "fekkin'", "Bosh", etc.  are all used to explain different emotions or actions. I would like this to become a Iron Heart Dictionary in time. Maybe we can all help each other understand OUR global language a bit easier. Please follow my lead with the formatting as it will make it easier for us all in the long run to flip through the pages.

      Cop – To acquire a desired item using canny consumer targeting and/or research

      Extant – A regular production item. If we are not showing your size, drop us an email, it should only be a short while until restock.

      Endangered – A one-off production run that is severely limited.

      Extinct – Sold out and no more will be made.

      Heavy - In an IH context, heavy is a positive modifier, indicating the typical attribute of IH gear (N.B.: Relates closely to: Stubborn)

            Bosh??

            Bosh - The act of virtually buying. A item that is a instant purchase. Saying Bosh in a thread before the product actually comes out means you have intentions of buying it. Or if you already own it you can simply type "Bosh" into a thread meaning you have it or have just picked it up.

                    I literally had no idea what bosh meant.  Now I don't feel like such an ejit when I'm lurking the forum to cop extinct heavy shwag.
