A word that indicates lameness, in one of two ways.
1 - Use - Gee, thats swell. Using slang from parent's generation, and suggeting ignorance of life.
2 - Use - Let's get jiggy with it, Gee. Using slang to appear cool when slang was never very cool in the first place. Poser.
Also the way to say the letter, g.

Gee (?), v. i. [imp. & p. p. Geed (?); p. pr. & vb. n. Geeing.]

1.

To agree; to harmonize.

[Colloq. or Prov. Eng.]

Forby.

2. [Cf. G. ju, interj., used in calling to a horse, It. gi�x95;, F. dia, used to turn a horse to the left.]

To turn to the off side, or from the driver (i.e., in the United States, to the right side); -- said of cattle, or a team; used most frequently in the imperative, often with off, by drivers of oxen, in directing their teams, and opposed to haw, or hoi.

[Written also jee.]

In England, the teamster walks on the right-hand side of the cattle; in the United States, on the left-hand side. In all cases, however, gee means to turn from the driver, and haw to turn toward him.

Gee ho, ∨ Gee whoa. Same as Gee.

Gee, v. t. [See Gee to turn.]
