St. Valentine's Day Massucker

(refers to the mob shooting in 1929 - the St. Valentine's Day Massacre and the St. Valentine's Day itself; comes from "massacre" and "sucker") a total destruction of hopes and dreams of people who sent Valentine cards to their dream-boyfriends/-girlfriends, where they usually finally have the courage to show their feelings, hoping that this would allow them to start a beautiful relationship - the hopes and dreams end up with a failure (because of being rejected by the "beloved one"), often involving being made fun of and laughted at in front of the whole class or school and eventually called a loser and a sucker;

Alan fell in love with Jen the very moment he saw here, but she was out of his league. He was always somewhere around her, waiting for the right moment to tell here about his feelings. And so there was St. Valentine's Day. He sent her a beautiful, hand-made card, where he described his affection. Not only did she rejected him, but also showed the card to all the worst possible people she could have shown it to, so they all made fun of Alan for like a month. He felt like a total loser and a sucker. It was his St. Valentine's Day Massucker.

passer-drive

a person you work with and who could give you a lift to work or home as he/she drives there by car, but does not do it as he/she focuses so much on driving and the road that he/she does not see you standing on the sidewalk and waiting for a bus;

in fact he/she would not see you even if there was nothing around except for the bus stop and you;

sometimes it is done on purpose because the person simply does not give a damn about you standing there and waiting

Morgan: Hey man! What took you so long? The boss asked about you.
Jake: Damn buses and damn Jackson!
Morgan: What?
Jake: Yup, the bus broke down and the other one was to come in 20 minutes. I saw Jackson in his Taurus, I waved, but of course he pretended that he didn't see me. Sorry-ass passer-drive!

celebro

a person who hangs out only with celebrities to get profits from the acquaintance;

Jim won't come with us, he doesn't hang out with people like you and me. He won't even look at you unless you were on the cover of a fashion magazine or something. He's a total jerk and a celebro.

mystifixation

an obsessive desire to present even obvious things as mysterious ones and thus making them unclear and hard to understand just to gain attention of the listeners (from mystification + fixation)

I asked Jeremy about his plans for summer holidays, but I got lost after a couple of seconds he started talking, because he made it so confidential and difficult to understand. It's his mystifixation - a desire to make everything, even simple things, look and sound mysterious.

no-comments-but-crisis policy

a policy and a way of dealing with one's company that has been widely in use since the media/banks/governments reported a financial crisis; it is a justification for various actions: staff reductions, cancelled payrise, lowered wages though none of these are necessary (because the company is doing well and needs no changes); it is a perfect explanation for everything if your general manager plans to fire some employees/cut wages and needs a good reason;

George: Crap, we're going to have staff reductions!
Will: What?
George: Yup, there were rumors, so we asked our boss about it, and despite good results of our company, half of us is going to be fired. We asked why and we heard that it was due to the financial crisis. End of story. Another example of no-comments-but-crisis policy.
