You want the scientific term, not so scientific term, layman term or ricer term?

Drag queens are performers - often gay men or transgendered people - who dress in "drag," clothing associated with the female gender (see drag king for women who perform in male clothing), often exaggerating certain characteristics for comic, dramatic or satirical effect . The term "drag queen" usually refers to people who dress in drag for the purpose of performing, whether singing or lip-syncing, dancing, participating in events such as gay pride parades or pageants, or at venues such as cabarets and discotheques.
Types of drag are generally divided into three categories: parasitic drag, lift-induced drag and wave drag. Parasitic drag includes form drag, skin friction and interference drag. Lift-induced drag is only relevant when wings or a lifting body are present, and is therefore usually discussed only in the aviation perspective of drag. Beyond these two kinds of drag there is a third kind of drag, called wave drag, that occurs when the solid object is moving through the fluid at or near the speed of sound in that fluid. The overall drag of an object is characterized by a dimensionless number called the drag coefficient, and is calculated using the drag equation. Assuming a constant drag coefficient, drag will vary as the square of velocity. Thus, the resultant power needed to overcome this drag will vary as the cube of velocity. The standard equation for drag is one half the coefficient of drag multiplied by the fluid density, the cross sectional area of your specified item, and the square of the velocity
Wind resistance is a layman's term used to describe drag. Its use is often vague, and is usually used in a relative sense (e.g. A badminton shuttlecock has more wind resistance than a squash ball).
Drag in its broadest sense means a costume or outfit that carries symbolic significance, but usually refers to the clothing associated with one gender role when worn by a person of the other gender. The term originated either in gay or theater slang in the 1870s, where the official long-established theater term for "cross-dressing" on-stage was travesti (French, "cross-dressed," giving rise to "travesty" which took on further connotations as a genre of critical vocabulary). The term "drag" may have been given a wider circulation in Polari, a gay street argot in England in the early part of the last century. Unlike "threads," "drag" never simply meant "clothes." -

wt.....i think it went quite off topic....

drag: act of pulling an object over any surface.
eg1: she drag the glass across the table.
eg2: he drag the screaming child out of the toy store.

Drag is sumtink about the aerodynamic resistance experienced as a car travels forwards.
what is aerodynamics?
Aerodynamics is sumtink about the study of airflow over and around an object and an intrinsic part of a car design.
what is downforce?
Downforce is sumtink about the aerodynamic force that is applied in a downwards direction as a car travels forwards. This is harnessed to improve a car's traction and its handling through corners. -

Drag = HIGH RPM at LOW speed..
one example: at traffic light.. when u wanna move off u press acc hard but nv change gear..
speeed increase at the expense of RPM..
bro, that is DRAG... waste fuel lah -
come come sunboy, i'm sure u can come up with crappier versions!Originally posted by sunboy77:Wahloa. -
drag: being in the state of experiencing unwelcomed/boring/laborious situations.Originally posted by tailslide:come come sunboy, i'm sure u can come up with crappier versions!
e.g.: Listening to tailslide's definition of 'drag' - what a drag! -
