A house that has obviously been bought, renovated, and is now being flipped. The obvious sign of a flip house is the myriad architectural elements that have been tacked on to give it character. An example: A 1950's brick ranch house. It will have a non-matching addition added onto the back. It will be painted "buff" or other neutral color to appeal to yuppies. They will tack on some cedar-shake siding so it has a Cape Cod look, and then some copper flashing so it has some Loire Valley feel, then some river-stone stonework around the foundation for that New England country feel, a couple of bogus columns that supposedly support the front stoop for that Old South look, and for the finale, a redwood pergola placed on the front of the house for that Pacific Northwest feel. Very, very tacky...and soooo very obvious.
Muffy: Oh Skip, what a charming neighborhood. All this old-time charm. I just love this cute, authentic mill village. How artsy!
Skip: Oh Muffy, you're so right! These quaint old neighborhoods are so rare nowadays. I love it!
Muffy: Oh no, Skip. What is that God-awful monstrosity??? Did it fall to earth from some other planet? It's twice the size of these other houses and it's taking up the whole damn yard. Gross. It's ruining the neighborhood.
Skip: Yeah...it's totally flippery. Let's go buy a condo instead.

A hard-on so big and intense that it pulls the skin tight on the rest of the body, making your face look like it's in a centrifuge.

When someone works incredibly hard, but since they lack even the most basic skills, the product of their many hours of hard work is still crap. (I made up this word April 8, 2008)
Dingus: "I saw you had a bunch of illegal immigrants reroofing your house. Man, I hear those guys work their asses off."
Cleetus: "Yep, they worked their asses off, but they forgot to put tar-paper down, and the edges of the shingles aren't level. Now I have to hire someone that knows what they're doing. Damn illegals".
Lurleen: "Sounds like they put forth the MEXIMUM effort though...you have to hand it to them."
Also when a pro-immigration person says "Those immigrants, they work their asses off" and then I say "Yeah, but you could put a scalpel in my hand and I'd work my ass off in the operating room, but it'd still be a bloody mess and the patient would die". I put forth the MEXIMUM effort, but the finished product was crap.

I would be putting forth the Meximum effort though.

Myers Park is one of the most expensive areas in Charlotte, N.C. and is arguably the most prestigious neighborhood in Charlotte. Residents are known as Myers Parkers. A "Myers Pauper" is someone, usually a vacuous blonde (and mate), that spends all their income just so they can live in Myers Park for the prestige, yet have no extra money.
Ophelia Snoblingfield Deucchebagg and Pender Parker Richlingsworth III just bought a house in Myers Park, but have to eat at Taco Bell and send their kids to public school. They're Myers Paupers.

Sherry already lost her new job because she was late to work, smelled like alcohol, filed all the papers in the wrong places, and spilled coffee all over the boss. She has the Fecas Touch.
