• "Old-School" - A continually used term by all ages, to describe older tradition methods, used by everyone including the younger, hypocritical, gen Yhine gen, who reluctantly uses it because they are too busy whining about many other things, for them to come up with a new and unnecessary replacement term, -which had it been created, should have hopefully set them apart as the next new "cool" generation. Just as many terms/concepts are timeless, such as mini-skirts are always ever fashionable, or term "cool", the current, soon to be replaced gen, is still trying to find a meaningful contribution before hitting middle age.

noun

• acronym for 'Oriental Male', 'Oriental Man', 'Orientalid Male' or 'Orientaloid Male'. This denotes a Brunet male from the Orient (including the Greater Middle East, Far East and Slavic East). In contrast to the NM or Blonde Nordic Male from the Nordic West and the BM or Black Male from the Dravidian Peninsula and Sub-Saharan Africa.
  
  It is considered far more scientific than the kindred but inaccurate abbreviation 'AM' which stands for 'Asian Male' or 'Asiatic Male', as 'OM' includes the non-Asian yet Orientalid Maghrebis.

  Hasheeda: Why are you going out with Rashid? I thought you only liked NMs and BMs?
  
  Sayyida: I am thinking of settling down with a nice OM now.
