Thin-Skinned 

Quick to take offense. Other words used to define the phrase are sensitive and defensive. The phrase "thin-skinned" is derived from the idea that such people are easy to attack as their skin is too thin to offer protection from assault.
The media exercised great caution when editorializing the words of the thin-skinned president to avoid acts of retribution from the IRS.

Thin-Skinned Muslim

A Thin-Skinned Muslim is one that gets quite upset and violent over any perceived slight against Islam. His counterparts around the world include, but are not limited to, the Thin-Skinned Christian and the Thin-Skinned Jew. None is a credit to his chosen faith.

The Thin-Skinned person is afraid of himself and is afraid for his place in the world. He suffers perversely from a lack of faith. That leads him to grotesque behaviour as a means of attempting to deal with life. In the process, he misses the true beauty and peace that Allah God Yahweh has granted in the miracle of life on Earth. True believers weather any issues with perspective knowing that their solid faith will provide a strong pillar of support. Life after all, does go on.

In a more modern, less fearful community, that fear-based reaction would fade away over time as the reality of dealing in the modern, post-medieval world sank in.

Some may say that the Thin-Skinned person isn't only fearful, but somewhat retarded. How else does one explain objectively the lack of rational thought, or the lack of ability to discern logical arguments or demagoguery, whenever those might present themselves? Perhaps that is too harsh a view, as the retardation may be merely a manifestation of ignorance, in-breeding or lack of education and exposure to the world. Perhaps it is fundamentally a lack of personal responsibility to lead an adult life.

He may be the analog of an English football hooligan or an American football fanatic, or an Israeli ultra-orthodox, each of which attempts repeatedly to lose himself in the greater perceived drama of a misunderstood belief that is elevated to mythic proportion as he attempts to fit into life.

Fortunately, the first and third types of Thin-Skinned person have the good sense not to compound problems with alcohol.

More confident and worldly people have greater faith in Allah's, God's or Yahweh's faith in and for them, and do not fear the Infidel, non-saved one, Goyim (a slur, anyway) or other people.

The world is big enough for those brave persons with strong faith, as they are not threatened by people that hold different beliefs.

Peace be upon the world.
He was a Thin-Skinned Muslim. He misinterpreted most statements and observations about Islam, and his disruptive and aberrant behaviour eventually led his neighbors to ask him to leave his mosque.

We used to have a Thin-Skinned Christian in our midst. He wanted to subjugate people that didn't belive as he did.

The Thin-Skinned Jew said "Did you call me a Jew? You must be an anti-Semite". (As if they were the only Semites in the world...)

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.
