07079's definitions
Medium sized German island on the North Sea coast of Jutland. Ellenbogenspitze on it's north side is the most northerly point in Germany. Sylt is a very trendy and popular vacation spot for wealthy Germans but is almost unknown to anyone outside of Germany, Denmark or the low countries. It is an island of quiet farms, sheep pastures, picturesque thatched cottages and long stretches of protected sand dunes. In the summer, Sylt's beaches and spas team with vactioners and windsurfers during the day while at night Everyone goes out to bars and lounges in Westerland and Kampen. When winter settles in the island is a desolate, wind-scoured sand bar populated by a hardy crew of locals. Sometimes Sylters are thought of as being snobby to outsiders, but this usually directed toward the tourists and obnoxious summer crowd who clog up the roads and establishments and looking to score with any girl they can.
To an American, Sylt can be thought of as being is similar to the Hamptons in NY or Cape Cod in MA.

Get the Prole Driftmug. The act of prepurchasing a Harry Potter book, or buying it at the midnight sale, Quickly skimming through the book to the end and then slowly driving through the parking lot where hundreds of other Potter fans are waiting to by the book and Shouting out the ending and key plot revelations at the crowd, thus ruining the book for everyone.
The guys who do the Harry Potter driveby are real douchebags, but those Youtube clips sure are funny.

Get the Harry Potter drivebymug. One who demonstrates smugness at conforming to conservative ideals. Often deriding elements of modernity and change simply because it is outside of the absolutist parameters by which the prig views his surroundings. The prig elevates the artificial constructs of established rules to the point where deviation from these fabrications will be judged as "good" or "bad." Even on superficial matters.
A prig will be the guy in your neighborhood who tries to change town ordinances to prevent his neighbors from building a modern house on the same street as his precious center-hall colonial. Because in his mind, modern design is "bad", and traditional cookie-cutter homes are "good" by virtue of their normality.

Get the Prigmug. Another term for the Appalachian Trail: the 2200 mile hiking path from Georgia to Maine. It is called the green tunnel because much of it lies in the low altitude deciduous forests of the east coast and the constant view looking down the trail is like looking through a "green tunnel."
