flashback humour

Indirect breach of the fourth wall at the end of the movie "Fight Club". When the plot comes around to the opening scene again after two hours of flashback, the Narrator (Edward Norton) states he "still hasn't anything to say", and Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt) refers to this as "flashback humour".

Any other definitions for flashback humour?

sloe gin

Alcoholic beverage made by flavouring gin with the juices of sloes, the fruit of the blackthorn bush. The berries are picked traditionally in October to November, although global warming is edging this back into September. The best stuff is a deep shadowy red and tastes like a mixture of woodsmoke, sugar, fire, and something more sublime again. If you want the genuine article, make it yourself.

Good homemade sloe gin is the nectar of the gods.

silicon carne

Cyberporn. Pun on (hot-flavoured) chili con carne (chili with meat) and the silicon in the chips in your computer.

I surfed the web for the sites my friends from school had set up two or three years before and found myself looking at more and more silicon carne instead.

Sean Connery

The only actor so far to show there is life after 007. One of the truly great sons of Scotland.

The name's Connery. Sean Connery. I was the first Bond. Whenever anyone wants to do a Bond voice, they impersonate me. Since then I've voiced Draco in Dragonheart and played Marko Ramius in Red October. I was in The Untouchables, Zardoz, Outland, and indeed countlessblockbusters, many of them quite good. I've also been an influential voice in the Scottish secession movement. Beat that, Roger!
