Blue stocking
Nerdy girl who doesn't bother with fashion or hair styling and make up, sometimes to the point of childish lack of dress sense.
Originates in the 18th century where the 'blue' wool stockings were casual, laid back options as opposed to expensive silk ones in ever-changing fashions. The 'blue stockings' were scholarly women who were too busy engaged in improving their minds to worry about constantly updating their wardrobes.
Like 'nerd' and 'boffin' this term is a social stereotype for what is actually a trait of Asperger's Syndrome/autism: the lack of awareness of social cues and trends such as fashion, the desire for comfortable dress and just finding studying more interesting than expensive dress.

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.

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.
