Inner Tube Edit Meaning

1.

An archaiccar part that has been made mostly obsoleteby tubeless tires. These days an inner tube is much more useful for floating on water, or for sleddingon snow. It's a lot more fun that way too.

It's soft, inflated, donut-shaped, usually black, and frequently has patches glued to it where it had leaked.

Smaller versions may still be found in many bicycle tires.

I was shockedwhen I took that tireoff the rim, and found an inner tube inside it.

Watch out for the stemof that inner tube. If you break that part, there's no patching it, and it can leave a nastyscratch on your skin too.

2.

A roll of fat, usually on a girl, that flops over a tight waistband and completely encircles the midsection, giving the effect of hiding an inner tube under the shirt. Particularly bad cases have been seen in which the inner tube is present even when there is no tight waistband for it to flop over.

Wow, check out the inner tube on Melody! I hope she's headed to the beach.
