Speaking of chemistry, Boron, Iodine, Technetium, Hydrogen: BITcH
I've seen it used with WeirdNet's definition.
As in, "Omg, this Chemistry assignment is a bitch!"
I have also been guilty of using bitchin' to describe things that are good as well as things that are bad.
"It was June 10th, six-thirty in the evening, plenty of light left in the sky. Summer, that beautiful green bitch, had ridden into Maine again."
- 'The Dark Half', Stephen King.
It is the "bitch seat", "riding bitch" is short for "riding in the bitch seat".
Isn't "riding bitch" a verb? Like, "I had to ride bitch in Jack's Miata"?
seanahan, I once saw a very small car park and 7 college guys get out. One who had emerged from the back seat was rubbing his neck and mumbled, "dude, shotgun" the way you'd utter dying words. Hilarious. I guess he was the "riding bitch" of which you speak.
Well said, samoritan!
The same as in "Life's a bitch". I also like riding the usage, "riding bitch", describing being the one stuck in the middle backseat of a car.
I like WeirdNet's definition of it, too.
This is the word I love to hate. It has gone from meaning a female dog to a vulgar reference to a angry woman to a mainstream reference for an upwardly-moble woman. Lately I heard it used as a non-gender reference for someone who does general tasks ("He is the office bitch.") Altho I personally wouldn't use it, "Bitch" is a truly amazing example of the organic ability of language to change in context over time.
