strauss

Technically, either Johann Strauss the Waltz King or Richard Strauss, the more serious composer who wrote tone poems and operas. Among real musicians, though, 'Strauss' almost invariably refers to Richard Strauss. You are a total noob if you think music festivals and professional orchestras program silly waltzes all the time when you see Strauss in their repertoire.

"Hey, wanna come to my concert tonight? The conductor's amazing, and we're playing Strauss."

"Uhh...I don't know if I care to hear Emperor Waltz or the Blue Danube again."

"Aww come on- we're talking 'Death and Transfiguration' here!"

wheelset

n. Slang among bicyclists for both wheels, often along with their tires and inner tubes.

I'm going 10 mph faster after finally getting a real road wheelset. The slick tires and lightweight wheels make a world of difference.

fuck this shit

Expression that shows you have no vocabulary and marks you as uneducated. It shows complete laziness and stupidity to use f*** and s*** to express 90% of all statements. Learn some other words.

Fuck this shit, man! No, I'm serious, this $h!t over here is like, f***ed! This part is...."

"Dude-your engine failed because the timing belt wore out. Can't you just say that?"

junkitarian

Someone who is technically a vegetarian in that they abstain from meat, but who negates all the potential health benefits by eating mostly junk food. Many teenagers fall into this category. It makes being a "vegetarian" really easy, since you still get to eat crap all the time, and still get the cool hippie status that comes with vegetarianism.

"Hey, I've become a vegetarian, and I LOVE IT! I never thought it would be so easy!"

"Wow, I could never live on whole wheat bread, cabbage soup and beans."

"No, it's easy-potato chips and twinkies have no meat in them!"

"Dude, you're just another junkitarian."

was like

In very casual slang, "was like," basically substitutes for "said."

I was like, "I need to define this term", but my brother was, like, "no, everyone knows it already," but I was, like, "hey, I have nothing better to do."

shitfuck

A pathetic attempt by people with no language skills to say something using only the words they know. Used by morons who don't know any words other than f*** and s***. There are many synonyms which are much more creative, interesting and precise in meaning:

shitfuck (noun)= retard, idiot, jerk, imbecile, punk, moron, cro-magnon, etc...

Reporter interviewing random person on the street: "So, what do you think about the economy these days?"

"Fuck this shit, shitfuck!"

Reporter: "Can you tell me where someone smarter is?"
