Indian burn

An Indian burn is the act of one person grasping another by the forearm, with both hands positioned next to one another, and proceeding to twist the skin of the forearm in opposite directions. It can be painful, and is usually performed by rambunctious children at play. The name Indian burn alludes to the notion that Native Americans are 'red men,' and comes from the fact that the procedure renders the victim's skin red.

Noogie

Also known as 'Dutch rub' (even though it isn't Dutch). A noogie is the act of rubbing one's knuckles on another person's head. It can be very painful if much pressure is applied, but is often also a playful gesture of affection when done lightly. The origin of the word is unknown, but it may have been derived from the Yiddish word nudyen, a verb meaning to pester. Alternatively it could have been derived from the English word nudge, which means to push or poke gently. "Noogie" can also refer to the act of punching a person in the upper arm with the knuckle of the middle finger set slightly before those of the other fingers. Those who consider "noogie" to mean this generally call the action described above a "dutch rub". Some consider "noogie" to mean the act of sexual intercourse, as an alternate version of "nookie".

Swirly

The act of children putting other children's heads on a toilet and flushing it

Wedgie

A wedgie, also called a Melvin, is the slang term for when underwear bunches up and becomes wedged betwixt the buttocks, or for a prank involving pulling up a victim's undershorts to artificially induce this condition, causing anal pain. Supposedly, an Atomic Wedgie is the prank form in which the waist band of the underwear is pulled above the head, but this is impossible, and the term is used merely as a joke, or to describe a "really bad" wedgie. Used, among others, in the Dilbert comic.

Wet Willy

A finger is placed into the mouth to create a very wet finger, and then inserted into one of the ears belonging to the one caught off guard.

Purple Nurple

Flat Tire

The act of stamping on a person's heel while walking behind him.
