situational obliviousness

The opposite of situational awareness. Having no clue what's going on around you. Straight-line thinking - aware of your world and its goings ons only.

Sheila almost ran over a biker because of her situational obliviousness.

Mike called the boss a stuck up turd when he was right behind him. That situational obliviousness has him working the weekend.

selective obliviousness

Having the mental capacity to understand something that's painfully obvious to anybody else and/or has overwhelming and undeniable evidence, but deliberately ignoring it for any number of reasons. Compare willful ignorance.

Jean was presented with mountains of evidence that her husband was cheating on her, and more-or-less covered her ears and went "LALALALALA." I swear, she's engaging in selective obliviousness.

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.
