mapcrunch 

MapCrunch is a website that leads you to a random place on Google Street view, anywhere in the world.

The existence of this site lead to the invention of the online MapCrunch Game (also known as "airport game" or "MapCrunch Airport Quest"). To participate in the game, you just go to the site (mapcrunch.com), click "hide location" and press "go", then you start looking for the nearest airport (with as less help as possible), so you can go back home.

The game was invented by the community of Tumblr and caused the website serious server troubles on Feb 19th 2012 because the site hits went up by almost 1500% within 24 hrs.
I spent my whole night on MapCrunch. Apparently Canada doesn't have any airports at all.

Mapcrunch 

A website that is essentially Google streetview, but you can hide your location and randomize it.

On February 19th, 2012, a post on tumblr introduced the airport game. Hiding your location, the game begins with randomizing your location, then finding an airport to "get back home". Led to the majority of tumblr wandering far corners of the Earth for hours, following random trucks. Screenshots were abound on tumblr of random locations combined with the player's declaration of misery. Occasionally someone managed to find the airport. Such people were revered as gods.
Person 1: What's with all of these airport posts on tumblr?
Tumblr user: WHO PUT THESE MOUNTAINS HERE?
Person 1: What.
Person 2: Mapcrunch.
Person 1: Still what.
Tumblr user: THE TRUCKS LIE.

ManCrunch 

An activity two or more guys do that could be construed as homosexual without too much speculation, adjective
I don't like to go to dinner with just one other guy, it's a little too ManCrunch for me.

Calling my best guy friend "baby" is way too ManCrunch.

John doesn't mind sharing his bed with other dudes, barring any ManCrunch implications.

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.
