Turn of phrase?

One of my fourth period students told another student that he had a "fresh dougie". I have never heard this phrase before. So I asked her. Answer? A nice haircut. What?! I thought it sounded more like something you said if you had to take a poop.

'Excuse me, I'm going to go take a fresh dougie.'

I told my class this and they agree.

Follow up: The next day one of my stronger students told me that he using the phrase the way I thought it should be used. This made my day. Is that sad??
