A problem whose solution is very obvious to everyone else, but which for some reason they refuse to divulge to someone who needs to find these things out. From the movie Demolition Man, starring Wesley Snipes and Sylvester Stallone, where in a future world of perfect primness no-one has the nerve to explain to Stallone's defrosted cop the purpose of the three seashell-shaped markings in every toilet.

Some new-fangled type of arms that "President" George Bush II tends to worry about a lot, or so he says.
Mah fellow Americans, there is plenny of evidence that Ee-rak, Afghanistan and perhaps Venezuela all have New Killer Weapons.

Fictitious mask company in the third instalment in the Hallowe'en franchise, "Season of the Witch" (the one without Mr. Myers). The masks are the colours of the Irish national flag (orange Jack-O-Lantern, white skull, green witch), and are made by a company in a weird all-Oirish town on the coast of California. On activation by a signal on the big night, the masks transform their (numerous) wearers' heads into so many divers creepy-crawlies. The Silver Shamrock company wins the booby prize for the most irritating television jingle ever inflicted on the world in fact or fiction; a countdown to the tune of "London Bridge is Falling Down", starting "(x) days to Hallowe'en, Hallowe'en, Hallowe'en". I had it in my head for WEEKS. The head of the company is played by an actor from Wexford, Ireland, and incidentally as far as I can tell is the only figure in the history of American horror films to pronounce Samhain correctly.
Four days left to Hallowe'en,
Hallowe'en, Hallowe'en,
Four more days to Hallowe'en,
Silver Shamrock!
Hallowe'en, Hallowe'en,
Four more days to Hallowe'en,
Silver Shamrock!

Venetian blinds; window covering consisting of an array of narrow rigid slats that can be rendered effectively translucent or opaque by using threads slotted through them to tilt them. One of the most essential inventions ever.

Cyberporn. Pun on (hot-flavoured) chili con carne (chili with meat) and the silicon in the chips in your computer.
I surfed the web for the sites my friends from school had set up two or three years before and found myself looking at more and more silicon carne instead.
