Manus

Manus is the name of a pedophile, and has subsequently been used as an insult in New Zealand, including on a TV commercial discouraging drunk driving. Hence, calling someone a Manus is like calling them a pedophile.

Oi, you Manus!
Nah, you're a Manus!

duck tape

Duck tape is NOT a mispronounciation of duct tape. Duck tape is the original name of the tape from when it was first invented and used by the military. Only, when people started using duck tape to repair ducts, it got the name duct tape.

Duck tape sucks for repairing ducts because it falls off after a while. The officially recommended tape for repairing ducts is foil tape.

Duck tape is used in movies extremely often. A few examples:
- Panic Room
- American Pie: The Wedding
- Frailty

The comic boot error has a healthy obsession with duck tape!

spark up a monkey

A bizarre way for geeks to describe opening a terminal program on a computer, particularly on a Unix based computer where terminal programs are very common.
