  • n. Literally meaning 'J'-Category

    -->California prison slang

    A commonly used phrase in California prisons indicating a mentally unstable person, or someone whom is intentionally or unintentionally acting mentally unstable. Most commonly refers to a person who has been involuntarily admitted to mental health services, but also may be used as a derogatory adjective.

    Derived from inmate mental health codes found in Article 9 and inmate classification administrative determinants found in Article 10 of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation's Title 15, Rules and Regulations: ->"Article 9, section 3364.2 (j) The judicial hearing for an order authorizing the involuntary administration of psychiatric medication to an inmate shall be conducted by an ALJ"

    Note: the 2020 Title 15, Article 10, section 3375.2 (17) has been revised to remove the 'J' designation and replaced with a 'PSY' three-letter code.

    Alternate spellings:

    Jay-Cat

    jaycat

    Examples: "Hey man, you see that guy over there? Yeah just don't interact with him, he's a j-cat for sure."

    "Oh yeah, that guy Ronny just came back from Classification Committee and he's now a confirmed j-cat."

    "I was grocery shopping yesterday and some j-cat came up to me and just started incoherently blabbering."

    "Yo, Billy just acts like a j-cat so he can get free psych meds."

Zoot Suit

noun

  • Cab Calloway, who, in his Hepster's Dictionary, called the zoot suit "the ultimate in clothes. The only totally and truly American civilian suit."

    Style-conscious Harlem dancers began wearing loose-fitting clothes that accentuated their movements. Men donned baggy trousers with cuffs carefully tapered to prevent tripping; long jackets with heavily padded shoulders and wide lapels; long, glittering watch chains and hats ranging from porkpies and fedoras to broad-brimmed sombreros.

    During the 1930s, dance halls were popular venues for socializing, swing dancing and easing the economic stress of the Great Depression. Nowhere was this more true than in the uptown Manhattan neighborhood of Harlem, home of the famed Harlem Renaissance.

    The image of these so-called "zoot suits" spread quickly and was popularized by performers.
    I'm going to go dance tomorrow in Harlem, but I need to go shop for a new zoot suit.
