bogart

verb

to steal, monopolize, or hog.
Don't bogart my cookies!
Submitted by Emily Marcroft, UC Berkeley, Berkeley, CA, USA, Jan 13 1998. Additions by Dan Day, MA, USA, Mar 12 1998.

notes

Origin: possibly during the 1960s as a drug reference. The band Fraternity of Man has a song called "Don't Bogart Me," circa the late 1960s. Lyrics include: "Don't bogart that joint, my friend, pass it over to me." It has been theorized that the term is an allusion to Humphry Bogart, an American actor who always had a cigarette hanging from his lips. To "bogart" a joint, then, would be letting it hang from one's lips without passing it on.
