The term "boom box" is not lower class "street" lingo; it's been part of
the lexicon for nearly twenty years.

"Wife beater tee shirt" is a newer term, but I'm surprised that a "real
man" like you doesn't know what one is. It's a tee shirt that has the
arms removed so you can show off your big manly muscles.
