A Brigadoon: a place or idea that is hard to find or is fleeting, much like the Scottish town of Brigadoon that only appears from out of the mists of the Scottish Highlands for one day every 100 years then disappears. Only love can bring it back sooner.

A Fat Elvis Weekend: a weekend in which you feel so pathetic and awful that you confine yourself to your room, sometimes with a bunch of movies, and you have yourself a nice long cry.

A Lost Weekend: a weekend in which you stumble from party to party or gathering to gathering, usually drunk (but not necessarily). It is not a social kind of experience, however. In this weekend you are a drifter.


to Hulk out: to suddenly burst from your clothing, à la The Incredible Hulk. Unlike the Hulk, this can be intentional or unintentional.

a random spot that smells of fart that is contained. Meaning, you can pass through a fart pocket and you can clearly differentiate where it begins and ends, unlike with a real fart. Fart Pockets are native to Evanston and the greater Chicagoland area.
