Well, like I had said, if something's used out of context it's not really slang. Just not proper English. Curse words are used out of context a lot but I don't consider that slang. Just because people use thing out of context a lot doesn't make something slang. But then again, some people consider certian types of jargon slang.
To me, slang words are words that can't be defined. Like when someone makes up a word for something, it's slang. |

What about "word" and "ghetto"? They're part of urban hip-hop slang.
