Frasierverse

The universe of characters centered around the fictional Dr. Frasier Crane. This character appeared on "Cheers," "Wings," and the eponymous sictom "Frasier." Any characters from these shows, and therefore any additional shows in which those characters appeared or were referenced in, are within this fictional reality.
"I know Lowell Mather (Thomas Haden Church) never actually met Sam Malone (Ted Danson), but they could have; all existed for years within the Frasierverse."

Mack: Dude, I cannot BELIEVE I moved this far north. Yesterday it was 30 degrees outside.

Sun Belt

A region of the United States covering the geographic southern United States, or roughly the area south of the 37th or 38th parallels, north latitude.

Not to be confused with the Bible Belt, the Sun Belt extends beyond the states traditionally associated with the deep south (Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Kentucky, Tennessee, and the Carolinas), and extends west through the warmer climes of the continental U.S. (Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, California, Florida, Colorado, Utah, Oklahoma, Nevada, extending as far north as Virginia).

The Sun Belt has seen substantial population growth in recent decades, fueled by milder winters, coupled with the availability and affordability of air conditioning. In addition, the latter half of the 20th century has seen a surge in retiring baby boomers migrating domestically, as well as the influx of immigrants, both legal and illegal, into this region.

One of the most densely populated areas for professional sports in the U.S., the college powerhouse SEC has existed there for over 75 years, with the population boom also adding to the creation of the eponymous Sun Belt Conference (est. 1976) and the currently higher profile Conference USA (est. 1995). All three conferences exist entirely within this region.
Tony: Man, it's too crowded out here in New York, I don't even have room to think.

Andrea: I know it ain't for everyone, but my cousins moved down to the Sun Belt and they couldn't be happier.

Tony: Sun Belt? Is that like the Bible Belt?

Andrea: Naw, the Bible Belt is mostly conservative country folk. The urban population is exploding down there with new liberal voters, and Obama even carried Houston in 2008, not to mention all of New Mexico.

cybertronaphobia

The irrational, slightly hilarious, and apparently very real fear of a car or other machine transforming into a giant robot. On par with coulrophobia and triskaidekaphobia.
I met this chick last week who said that the movie 'Transformers' freaked her out. That crazy broad's got cybertronaphobia.

tourerist

Amalgamation of "tourist" and "terrorist," a tourerist is a person or group of persons who exhibit reprehensible behavior while visiting a foreign country.
a) I watched in horror as a fat, unwashed American wearing a confederate-flag t-shirt shouted, "Look honey, it's the moaner-lisa!" and shoved past thirty people to gaze upon the famous painting. I thought, 'what a tourerist.'

b) Bob's cousin Heinrich was visiting from Germany, and could talk about nothing but how America is repressed, and greedy, and fat, and lazy. I told Bob his cousin was a damn tourerist.

c) When you're a guest in a foreign country or culture, you should learn the customs and some of the language, just as the locals should gently correct the guests if they commit any faux pas. If the locals do not do this, the they're letting the tourerists win.
