straw poll

An extremely unorganized form of voting, usually used by self-appointed leaders when they don't have the desire to actually consider what the group wants but need to make it look like it was a majority decision.

Intramural captain: "Okay dudes, who can make it Monday to practice? Quick straw poll!" (two people out of thirty raise their hands)
Captain: "Monday it is!"
Guy #1: "90% didn't vote."
(Captain shoots Guy #1 in the face.)

meta fog

when something is so self-referential (i.e., meta), that it looses all meaning because it is too confusing to follow. A good example is the movie Inception.

"Dude, so how about I am making a movie about how I am producing a film about how went to the theater to watch a movie about a group of people making a movie about the film industry?"

"I'm lost in a meta fog, bro. I think you need to simplify."

Balaton

prop. n.; a lake in Hungary. Usually referred to as "the crown jewel of Europe". Tourists from around the world flock to the shores of the Balaton in order to enjoy fine wine, fine eats, and fine women. The single most relaxing location in the visible universe.

Guido took his family to the French Riviera, only to regret it terribly and wish he had gone to the Balaton instead.
