Tear Grants

I feel as though I should be following the elections more closely, but at the same time, I know so little about the candidates, that any contribution on my part would be irresponsible and ill-informed.

However, I have discovered something of relative interest. It appears that many languages have developed their own figurative terms and phrases. Simply put: "slang".

Unfortunately, some of their meanings still escape me.

Could anyone possibly explain a "chica", "buzz hype", or a "homeslice"...?
