Six english questions

  1. We got into a big blowout over the remote control (What is "blowout"?)
  1. Once again, the local custom bones the foreign guy. (Never knew "bone" could be used as a verb. What does it mean?)

  2. American custom be damned. (Does It mean the same as "American custom my ass."?)

  3. Give me a drag. (What does it mean? Is this an idiom?)

  4. A: So what are you doing over here?

B:: Snuck out.

(Shouldn't what B said be "sneeking out"? Since the question was what are you do"ING"?)

  1. My body is on a schedule. (What does this mean? It doesn't make sense to me)

  2. In this case blowout seems to mean get into a fight / argument.

  3. Bone is a slang word similar to fuck, but not quite as intense. In other words, customs made this foreign guy mad through their actions.

  4. Similar but not the same. It's like saying "to hell with customs"

  5. It means someone wants to borrow your lit cigarette for a puff.

  6. Not necessarily. The asker is wondering why / how the other guy is there. The other guy explains he is there because he snuck out.
