1. It's being used as an adjective here, not a verb.
Actually, I meant to say adjective. I'll fix that.

Also, I know it "has been used" as an adjective in slang, but it's improper grammar to do so. Not to say we have to adhere to proper grammar all the time, so much as that something not adhering to it is at least worth taking into consideration. At least when combined with the other things I mentioned.

The adjective is more commonly "pimpin'", but "pimp" is used also, e.g. "Pimp ride." = "Nice car." It is unusual grammar but not incorrect, unless all slang is improper grammar, in which case this sidetrack is pointless.

Gotta say, I'm not a fan of the "secondary color" one, but it does appear to be the runaway favorite here, at a 5:1 ratio...

Yeah, and since a caption's not nearly as important as the actual pic, I think we can safely call this one.

EDIT: It's added; locking up.
