Just tossing out a comment to get you thinking:

One aspect of slang (and jargon) is the ingrouping and outgrouping
function it performs.

Looking at another facet, in "A Clockwork Orange" do you see any
examples of reverse meaning? That is, expressions like "bad" (which
means "good") or "dope" (meaning a "smart idea"). How would such
examples tie in with your question?
