Pp: Pirate Bath

Here's the 1st definition by Kyle Mead:
1. pirate bath
The process of washing just the arm pit area and the private area with a wash cloth or handful of water. People will ask you to define a pirate bath, the easy definition is "pits and privates"
Kyle was in a helluva hurry and didn't have time to take a full shower. He instead took a pirate bath and he was on his way.
