His mother starts screaming at him:

mother: is this f-sag you twit? what are you doing, you'll create sparks and burn the damn house down. Pigs don't fly. Go to your room now. She then takes a broom and starts chasing him around the house.

flash-bang 

an adventure, escapade, vacation or other opportunity involving an unexpected sexual encounter whether its during a casual, on going, hook-up, on sleeping terms, or within an actual romantic relationship.
son: what is considered rape nowadays?

father: a non consensual, illegal, immoral, amoral, and one sided (in the guy's favor) flash-bang. I don't give a rat's ass whether it's the correct legal definition, that's for the State to decide, but there you go, that's my definition of rape.

trains-creep

This concept was imported to us from Holland and is used to define

1) A silver-fox age (usualy 45-60) male with RSCS on a train or bus who systematically and purposefully tries to sit in the vicinity of an often young (age somewhere between 18-25) woman and then to enter into a conversation with her

2) a silver fox age male pedophile who, instead of prowling the Internet, Facebook and other social networking sites to find his young female (often teenage) victims, he uses intercity trains and public city buses to do so.
