flip-flopping

In American politics, something Republicans accuse Democrats of doing when they're too dizzy from doing it themselves.
My fellow Americans, you know you can trust me more than that flip-flopping Democrat Clinton when I tell you this was in Iraq was about freedom, no, hold on a moment, it was about weapons of mass destruction, no, hold on, it was for democracy, no, it was about the Kurds, yeah, that was it, it was about the Kurds. Not about oil or God or any of that stuff. Excuse me, I'm off to bed now.

all-singing, all-dancing

All-singing, all-dancing: state of the art, perhaps a little conceited, best new thing. Popularised by the movie Fight Club (1999), starring Brad Pitt, David Norton, Meatloaf and Helena Bonham-Carter, directed by David Fincher and based on the novel by Chuck Palahniuk.
We are the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world.

four headed grass accident

Something spectacularly silly and sublimely expressive of the comical futility of human existence. Like a four headed baby conceived between a couple who couldn't even recognise one another because the grass was too tall (or they had smoked too much of it). An utter disaster.
Little Downs-Syndrome Pepita here is Marcia's little four headed grass accident.

His thirtieth birthday party was a four headed grass accident.

Llanfairpwllgwyngychgogerychwyrn - drobwllllantisiliogogogoch

Village in North Wales, close to a railway line that runs from Holyhead to Crewe. Rumoured to contain the only railway station in Europe where the name plate is longer than the platform. No, don't ask me how to pronounce it. It's not supposed to have a hyphen either, but Urban Dictonary insisted on it.
No, I haven't been to Llanfairpwllgwyngychgogerychwyrn - drobwllllantisiliogogogoch.

landlord's contract

A written contract that is supposed to make a transaction look above board and official, and to suggest that the buyer has a degree of comeback, but which the party offering the document can ignore at will. As they say, it's not worth the paper it's printed on.
Dickie O'Kelly presented his tenants with the landlord's contract in connection with the quality of their accommodation, and then disappeared to South Africa with their money.

Elliott Carver

Played by Jonathan Pryce in Tomorrow Never Dies (1997). Newspaper magnate who likes to make his own stories. Had his wife murdered for colluding with 007 (and thoughtfully put her in his news bulletin). Prepared to risk WW3 in order to secure his market in China. Made the film. The only truly frightening Bond villain in the franchise's history.
Elliott Carver (on Bond's mobile in Hamburg): You have two things belonging to me, Mr. Bond. Now I've found one of them, I've a fair idea where the other one is.

(He is referring to his satellite decoder and his wife. Bond floors the accelerator back to the hotel ...,)
