Shine: A street term for jewelry, makeup, flashy clothing, or anything else where form outweighs function. As one might guess from the name, the expense of the item is far less important to most than its flashiness, its 'shine', but it also acts as a visible display of wealth for some.
Look! Characters we haven't seen in a while! Kudos to wright1 for correctly identifying Ellen from the vote incentive and her single, long-ago appearance in the comic. Dude. I can't even remember where I put my car keys.
