We’re always up-to-date on the latest trends; but we’re not talking fashion, darling. In fact, the latest trend suggests millennials are less fussed about the runway, and more into runaways.
‘Dick & Dash’ is a term that originates from ‘dine and dash’, when customers would order and eat a meal, before fleeing the restaurant, (only this time they’re stuffing themselves with dick, not duck confit).

According to Urban Dictionary, D&D is “the process of being in a relationship just for sex then dumping them in a short amount of time. (Time varies from 24 hours to only a week).” Do people really have to fake feelings to get sex? We thought that’s all anybody wanted these days anyway.
