They're all in the link. Wink
By the way, I move that Man Cave should be replaced with Hot Chicks Room. Tongue
I seem to recall that being part of a Kids In The Hall sketch.
Correction, it's from the short lived Upright Citizen's Brigade.

Upright Citizens Brigade: Hot Chicks Room

The Hot Chicks Room contains assorted hot chicks who party near 24 hours a day.

But why didn't you include underrated?

It is kind of like the Batcave.  Batman has no super powers but he has gadgets.

I know he doesn't. But he is regarded as a superhero nevertheless.

Since 1991 there is an elecrtion for "Unwort des Jahres" (worst word of the year) each year in Germany. in 2010 it was "alternativlos" ("without alternative"). I love the choice for 2008: "notleidende Banken" ("suffering banks"), This year's Unwort will be published soon.

Hmmm I donīt use or encounter any of these on a regular basis, but one phrase that annoys me a bit, is when someone starts out their review with: What can I say about this album that hasnīt already been saidDead
Itīs usually about Foxtrot, Close to the Edge, Thick as a Brick and the likes, and even though I know there are tons upon tons written about these albums, I still think it is mind bogglingly lame and unimaginative. Talk about when you played it whilst eating oysters and you had to change your baby at the same time, and suddenly the keyboard solo seemed weirdly appropriate with your mouth full of salty sea snot and hands liquidy brown. Anything is better and more entertaining to me, than throwing in the towel before youīve climbed over the starting line....

Man cave? Is that slang for a Turkish sauna?
“The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.”
