If you want more fancy things: 

\define\mytype
  {\bgroup**\processinlineverbatim{**\egroup}}

\mytype {test \par \rubish{}}

Now, what you really want is:

\setupcolors[state=start]

\definetype[rubish][color=red]

\rubish{some tex \xxtext{} met $math$}

\definetype[morerubish][color=green,style=\ttsl]

\morerubish{some tex \xxtext{} met $math$}

see attachment [these kind of extensions fall in the category trivial]
