85
Saying that someone or something is "85" is a colloquial way of implying paranoia. The phrase originated in Detroit, where gang members would tag houses to be burgled with the number 80, the jersey number of famed football hall-of-famer Jack Butler, a nod to the Steelers cornerback's ability to break through any defense. Over time, the phrase was generalized to refer to anything that was going to be hit: a snitch, a rival gang, or a deserting member of the crew. Around the same time, the phrase "five by five" became a common way of expressing well-being. Some started using that phrase sardonically, and referring to oneself as "five by five" was eventually understood to mean that the person wasn't doing well. In the 90s, the idea of being "an 80" and the sarcastic "five by five" merged; people began referring to people who were afraid of being targeted by gang violence as "85."

Urban Dictionary. Mixes truth with lies. Keeps a record. Thanks for the truthful parts, bro. 🙏💪✝️
I wish I had this mug I SOOOO wish I had this mug! I never find anything that has my name on it unless I have it custom made. I'm actually quite surprised that 'Lani' is on the Urban Dictionary... And the definition is pretty accurate ;)

I LOVE GETTING THE FUCKING MUG
The wife absolutely loved it for her birthday
it was the best and it was so worth the 10000000000 dollars
Can we really send one to Trump? That's where mine is going. Anyone who gets it will see it as a compliment, I'm sure. Love my mug and love that new "urban dictionary" term: Celebritrash. It'll be in the mainstream dictionaries next week.
My friend saw the message on the cup ordered at a mutual friends house. We think it’s hilarious so had to put it on a coffee cup. Funny, great Christmas present. If she can’t use in public she can always use at home for pens and pencils on her desk!
Bought the "Bump Down" mug for my boyfriend, he thought it was the greatest and couldn't believe I'd actually found something with the phrase on it!
Great mug but i can't manage to get it out of my asshole again
