trick box 

A difficult situation. Specifically, circumstances that require a great deal of finesse to come out of unscathed. Physically, this term references the inherent difficulty of solving Oriental puzzle boxes, but this instance the phrase is used in reference to uncomfortable social situations.
My brother's been crashing at my house for the last four months. He's really been wrecking the place, no matter how many times I talk to him about it. If it was anybody else, I wouldn't hesitate on telling him to get out, but he's family and I don't want to be a dick. I'm really stuck in a trick box.

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.
