That's an american word, recently used all the time on 'Sin City Motors'.

Fist bumps, and 'safe' is the combined greeting I am met with around school. Needless to say my reply is usually a look and 'I always wear a cycle helmet to keep just so' leaving the greeter perplexed. But 'sick' is an usual adjective for a positive.
