When you take a good look at something.
Mikey: Hey man, did you see the new poster?
Bob: I had a quick look.
Mikey: What? I need your OK on it by Wednesday!
Bob: Alright, alright I'll take a look at it.
Mikey: By When?
Bob: By Wednesday Morning.
Mikey: Promise?
Bob: Yea, man.
Mikey: Ok.
Later that day...
Mikey: Hey Bob, have you had a look yet?
Bob: No not yet.
Mikey: Come on, man!
Bob: You're really becoming annoying.
Mikey: Dude, I just need you to look at the poster.
Bob: Ok, I'll take a proper gander at it right now, and get back to you.
Mikey: You'll what? Propaganda?
Bob: No, I said I'd take a PROPER... GANDER... at it and get back to you.
Mikey: WTF does that mean?
Bob: It means I'll take a good look at it.
Mikey: Why didn't you just say that?
Bob: Cause we were making an example for Urban Dictionary, and we had to use the word in it.
Mikey: Makes sense.
