spooky

Cool but in a non-mainstream way. For example Abercrombie may be cool among a certain set, but it will never be spooky.

Poss. derivation from Fox Mulder's nickname on the X-Files because Mulder embodied an outsider ideal of sorts being cute and smart and totally committed to his world view even when it was constantly under attack by all the "normal" people.

A: "Did you see her new Global Frequency tattoo?"

J: "Yeah, it's spooky."

macgyver

verb, to cobble together a working piece of machinery or electronics from spare parts and duct tape using only your wits, folksy engineering knowledge (garnered from the scouts or your grandpa), and your swiss army knife

I dropped by cd player on the concrete and it broke, so I had to macgyver it. It ain't pretty but it works.
