when pain is inflicted by means of insult, blackmail, or general embarassment. originated from when salt is sprinkled into a wound, causing further stinging and pain. later, gestures were added for effect, often consisting of rubbing fingers together over the victim's head to suggest gingerly applying a layer of salt for extra emphasis on "being served."
Example: -your momma's so fat that when her beeper goes off, everyone thinks she's backin up
-salted!!
When someone says something funny, we say LOL which stands for Laugh out Loud. However, we are not really laughing, we smile a little then we stop, right? So SALTS = smile a little, then stop
