Scoop
In Hyde Park, to kiss. In other neighborhoods, to engage in rather more intimate behavior: "Guess who I scooped on last night?!?"
This was used in more places than just in Hyde Park. Try Roslindale, Dedham, West Roxbury and Norwood. Anyone who went to the Dedham Movie Theater knew this term. "I scooped on that girl last week. I got her numbah but nevah called.". In Dorchester, Quincy and Braintree no one used scooped.
