1. Like James Hetfield, a dude too manly for you. He dwells in the deep dark suburbia of Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, but occassionaly goes on expiditions to the wilderness of Upstate to kill bears with his bare hands. Pun intended. He is also known for making sweet, sweet rock, and drives a chariot. He is descended from the Greek Gods, but also has a streak of Odin somewhere in his blood since Vikings are so metal. His real name is too cool for you, and therefore he is known by his diminutive to the non-exclusive community: Mutsy.
A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.
In use:
Shackteâu - We thought it was an abandoned shed until the realtor called it a rare alpine Shackteâu with unobstructed views and listed it for $2 million.
