"You" is an interesting word, seeing that it can function as a third-person plural. Furthermore, "cack" is not in my slang dictionary, either. The closest match is:

cack-broad n. =cackle-broad. 1942: "I knocks de pad with them cack-broads up on Sugar Hill." Z. Hurston, 89. Cf. kack.1

So it's not slang. It's a typo in the title. Ergo, open-season.

Or am I misunderstanding you? Did you mean to use a verb as a noun?
