Metagenetics

The study of how traits, behaviors, and weird family habits skip generations, mutate, and recombine in ways that classical genetics cannot explain. It's the field that asks: why do you have your great-grandmother's nose, your father's temper, and your uncle's inexplicable ability to parallel park anything on the first try? Metagenetics suggests that DNA is just the hardware; the software includes ancestral trauma, family legends, and that one cousin's questionable life choices that somehow echo through the generations. It's genetics for people who suspect their family is weirder than Mendel's peas.
Example: "He blamed his fear of commitment on metagenetics—his grandfather had cheated on his grandmother, his father had done the same, and now here he was, running from anything serious. His therapist suggested that maybe it wasn't genetic, maybe it was just learned behavior. He said the distinction was academic and he was still single."

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.
