What the hell does HMLL stand for?

Language is fluid. Words come into use (blogging) while others just fade away (washateria, a term for Laundromats used in the southeastern US during the 30’s and 40’s). Here is my entry for the next great word.


HMLL stands for High Maintenance Lot Ladies. This is a term of endearment. I used to joke that Christine was high maintenance (which she is not). She’s always Can you light this, Can you hold this, Can you take a picture, Can you open this? We went to Phish Friday Camden 2010 and needed to get 9 tickets for our friends. Well, they did it and Christine uttered the immortal phrase, “we’re High Maintenance Lot Ladies”. I loved it and started using the abbreviation HMLL. I got them shirts for Christmas. I have started to spread the word and would love for it to become as common as 420, a tribute to all the hippie chicks that make the shows so much fun. But Christine, Switzer, DeLorean, and Courtney are HMLL OG.
