red tide

A proliferation of a marine plankton toxic and often fatal to fish, perhaps stimulated by the addition of nutrients. A tide can be red, green, or brown, depending on the coloration of the plankton.
A proliferation or bloom of a certain type of plankton with red to orange coloration, that often causes massive fish kills. Though they are a natural phenomenon, blooms are believed to be stimulated by phosphorus and other nutrients discharged into waterways by man.
Sea water which is covered or discoloured by the sudden growth of algal bloom or by a great increase in single-celled organisms, dinoflagellates. Red tides are often fatal to many forms of marine life and, in some cases, can result in human deaths because the dinoflagellates are eaten by clams and mussels which concentrate the paralysing toxins which they produce.
Swimming and close contact with the shore line is not advised during a red tide alert.

asshat

A word derived from a social climate and political era that is an epitome.

An epitome (Greek epitemnein—to cut short) is a summary or miniature form, also used as a synonym for embodiment. Many lost documents from the Ancient Greek and Roman worlds survive now only "in epitome" referring to the practice of some later authors (epitomators) who wrote distilled versions of larger works now lost. Reference:The Lorax is arguably Seuss' most controversial work, having been banned in some schools and libraries for its anti-forestry industry content. Word derived: asshat
Lidsville is the epitome of American Politics, where as, asshat characters are potrayed.
Used in sentence: "Those asshat's in the county seat let the ONCELER cut down all the trees," yelled the LORAX.

"jumping the shark"

(revival)
The scene was so preposterous that many believed it to be an ill-advised attempt at reviving the declining ratings of the flagging show... since then, it has become a metaphor that has been used by U.S. TV critics and fans to denote the point at which the characters or plot of a TV series veer into a ridiculous, out-of-the-ordinary storyline.

The term Jumping the shark alludes to a scene in the TV series Happy Days when the popular character Arthur "Fonzie" Fonzarelli, on water skis, literally jumps over a shark.

A phase in a relationship to rekindle romance after a betrayal or tort action.
