A hyperbolic superlative. Often used to express an otherwise unquantifiable difference between two or more subjects or concepts. "This coffee is epic, its so strong it could melt a tank."
Movie trailers should stop using so many hyperlatives, nothing is the greatest anything of all time.

A subset of the Noir genre of film and literature. Heavy Noir is any of a burgeoning set of neo-noir works featuring hard choice, gritty settings, flawed characters, and a fatalistic view of virtue set in a modern setting. Examples include films such as Brick and Chrysalis and novels such as Crooked Little Vein.
Even when you win you lose, this day is so Heavy Noir.
