the backwater town of California, and the only city that has a UC and can still boast that citizens can go anywhere in town and know at least ten people there. Filled with baby boomers whose own parents are from the hick parts of the east coast, the schools may be filled to the brim, but do not be fooled: if there ever was a cliche "country" town in california, this is it.

To destroy someone absolutely without killing them with the skills of a fully trained mercenary. (Effortlessly)

1. n. the arm-pit of the Central Valley of central California. Turlock is the geographic center of the state and is 20 miles north of Merced, therefore anyone claiming to be a Northerner (norteño) south of Turlock needs to learn their geography, however, most, if not all, gangbangers are confuckulated because they spend their days spun ducky woo woo. If I was mexican (see border brother, spic, greaser), I would not try to kill my brethren - To quote Rodney King, "Can't we all just get along?"

I know from living here,born and raised.I moved away in 2003.I came to the East Coast near New York city.Okay,Merced is ok if your just a so-called "normal" person.But if your different,like i was,and just unique and Flamboyant.This town is full of Homophobes.it's very closed-minded,Extremely Anti-Gay and full of stupid Bigots.I used to hate being hurrassed,and not feeling like i didn't belong.It was a hard place to live and be yourself.Being Openly-Gay in Merced County has been Hell.This is an OK town for some,But for me i had to leave what i left behind.and that was my Dear Family and "Some" Friends.The other stuff was pure History.I admit,Merced is a cool town,theres some nice people,but theres also a lot of Anti-Gay people as well.

In the world of multi-player gaming, merced is used in much the same way that "pwned" is. It is typically used to denote domination or (at the very least) a kill of another player. The word originates from the root word mercenary.

It is also a term that is tossed around quite haphazardly among gamers for feats that are not really all that impressive. A minor kill streak or a narrow victory over an opposing team does not really rise to the level of merced, but that does not stop noobs from using it anyway. (see definition of Noob for details)

a tall, very good-looking guy who can be very sweet and respectful, but can also be mean and mysterious. He is extremely smart, very weird in a really cool way, and very sexual.

To get run over by a Mercedes.

The origin is from the noun, mercenary. A mercenary is someone who will carry out combat missions but aren't part of an official organization, like the military, or CIA and are usually not motivated by justice or an allegiance. (They are usually motivated by profit) Activities associated with these "rogue agents" or "guns for hire" usually involve violence, and often killing.

So the slang verb "merc" generally means to perpetrate violence, usually killing, but can just mean to beat someone up (usually to teach them a lesson/send a message). Or it can be used figuratively, as in, "that mc just got straight merc'd in that rap battle". Similar figurative expressions could be, "Man, he just got smoked!", "Dude, you totally slaughtered that guy", "Yo, she schooled that chick", "When my boy rocks the mic, he be killin' any sucka mc that steps to him".

Like many slang terms, there is an original way to spell it and variations on spelling that can become widely accepted (it is slang after all, so normal grammar rules do not necessarily apply). Merc is the origin spelling, whereas murc, murk, merk, etc are alternates. Like some people write murda instead of murder, dood instead of dude, or dat instead of that.

To fuck a person up real bad or kill them in a ruthless manner
