Calvin and Hobbes

Kickass monster fixated, transmorgifier time travel machine, boy and imaginary tuna-loving tiger adventures with most excellent art from Bill Waterson's brain.
"You know, Hobbes, some days even my lucky rocketship underpants don't help."

Tourist

A person who obviously doesn't fit in with a scene. In clubbing, directly addresses people who rarely go to that kind of venue or don't know their etiquette.
It's considered polite to ignore tourists or point them in the right direction.

If you feel like a tourist, you're not making an effort to fit in.

Dagenham Dogs

Polite term for English built Fords, especially the XR series of Baby Killers and joy rider chariots.
Check out The Geezer in his XR3, flipping everyone the finger and trying to race everything from M3's to old women.

Pixies

One of Nirvana's quoted influences, having a similar self destructive, downbeat feel that personifed the Grunge movement in the early 90s. The Pixies were a little more colorful and violent sounding than Nirvana and had a good female vocalist on some tracks.

The Pixies are Surfer Rock, but their style is from Psychedelic to Punk to New Wave
The song "Where is My Mind" at the end of Fightclub re-kindled some interest in their style.

IBM

1. International Business Machines
2. Big Blue

The creators of the BIOS system most computers are based around. Unfortunately arrogant enough to publish their BIOS code in a context akin to saying, "Look, this is how it's done. If you do it in a similar way we'll know where you got it from."

Phoenix Technologies where the first to successfully cheat the challenge; one team of scientists simply worked directly on the IBM BIOS and made an exhaustive table of commands and responses, another team who had no knowledge of IBMs existing code were given the table to write a new BIOS.

This is how IBM lost their monopoly on PC design, how the first buyers of Phoenix BIOS, Compaq placed themselves on the market, and generally a nice example of David and Goliath.
The IBM BIOS standard becoming ripped off has both advanced compatibility and held back the market at once, but at least it's basically open-source.
