chasing teddies

Definition

Australian slang for huffing paint thinner to get high, because apparently Down Under they prefer their recreational activities to sound adorable while being absolutely terrible for you. It's the linguistic equivalent of wrapping dangerous behavior in a cute little bow. Definitely not as wholesome as it sounds.

Example Usage

The youth worker recognized the telltale signs that some kids in the area had been chasing teddies based on the empty paint cans behind the skate park.
