tea-bags

Infusion packets, perforated

Tea-bags is the third-person singular verb form of tea-bag, a vulgar slang term for lowering one's scrotum onto another person's face or into their mouth—the motion resembling dipping a tea bag.

The act may be sexual or, in gaming culture, a taunt performed over a defeated opponent's avatar: He tea-bags everyone he kills in the game.
