Manigas

A comical, somewhat discrete and "polite" way to say my niggahs.
The pronunciation of manigas is easy to pronounce. Instead of saying My Ni-ggahs, one says Ma-neegas spoken faster than usual to achieve that pronunciation (sound) of a military general saying "Manigas! Get me the President of the United States!
Often used to call one of your close friends without meaning any harm.
It is typically used as a replacement word for actual names/subjects/items/etc. Originated in the University of California, Irvine when a group of undergrad students in the fields of biology and engineering became extremely high.

Power Couple

A relationship between two people who are equally as cool as each other. They are as individually awesome and fun to be around as they are when they are together.

Neither one depends on the other for their feelings of self worth- they know in their heart that they are just as valuable to the world as the other. Good looking, optimistic, and sparks a light in the world that people recognize that goes beyond a normal relationship.

In a power couple, if one person is flawed, the other person makes up for their weaknesses in strength. Together they are the epitome of what anyone would desire in a relationship. They encourage goodness in the world and make it a better place by being together.

I'm a fan of those two, they are such a power couple, the epitome of what anyone would want in a relationship.

I am envious of them because they are a power couple.

Shackteâu

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.
