aspirational hotel

A hotel or vacation resort which is oh-so-expensive (room rent is, say over US$400 a night,) out-of-reach of all but multi-millionaires & billionaires. Therefore it's a big deal when a middle-class or kind-of-rich person can use a free-hotel award to stay there!

I got 2 free nights to stay at any Hyatt aspirational hotel in the world for getting the Hyatt Visa card, so I used them at the Hyatt Paris Vendome to stay in a room costing 700 euros a night!

volleysnob

A person who is so conceited/ stuck-up about their volleyball skills that they judge others' coolness, friendworthiness, or social status by how well those others can play volleyball.

When I complained to the leader of that volleyball club that the other players would not talk to me in the bar after the match, he told me where to take volleyball lessons! So he admitted that they're a bunch of volleysnobs.

backhandedly macho

When a man or boy does or wears something "feminine," which shows that he has guts/ balls.

Check out that football player (UK: rugby bloke) wearing a purple skirt! He obviously ain't a drag queen. He's got the muscles where nobody would dare mess with him!

I wish I were so backhandedly macho!
