Clown Hooker

1 — A term used for females who wear excessive make-up which results in them looking either whorish or like a circus clown or BOTH, but nevertheless extremely ridiculous, gross and tacky.
2 — Also used to describe a particular style of make-up which if often darkly outlining facial features such as eyes, lips and cheeks for glamour purposes. It could focus on all three or a combination of them. This style of make-up is intended to look that way and is usually done in a manner that does NOT look completely taste-less (not really 'day make-up', though).
1 — "Did you see that teacher? How can she wear so much make-up when she's coming to work to teach Maths? She looks like a fucken clown hooker."
2 — "My daughter, Sabrina, was in a magazine photoshoot for this Winter themed article. They put really heavy 'glamour' make-up on her. The photographic director told the make-up artist to create "a cold clown hooker feel", whatever that means."

Strawberrygasm

The pleasantly surprising feeling when you eat something delicious that is made with a lot of fruit. Doesn't necessarily have to be primarily or solely strawberries. Any berries, any fruit.

Sylvia: That good huh?
Karen: Yes! Every bite was like a strawberrygasm.

Books

Portable sanctuaries.
Books can provide such wonderful escapes. They are like your own little sanctuary and you have a wide choice to lose yourself in. :)

Not be be confused with Wolfstar, the slash ship of Remus/Sirus in the Harry Potter fandom.
Barbara: Hey, can you recommend any good Rose/Doctor fanfics?
Hayley: Wolf Storm? That's my favourite ship. There is actually a 10/Rose fic called Wolf Storm on Fanfiction.Net. You should check it out. It has some 9/Rose elements too.
Barbara: Thanks. I will look it up.

IKEA Daleks

IKEA Daleks is a fan-given term to the "improved" designs of the Dalek villains from the long-running British sci-fi TV show Doctor Who. Daleks are the arch-nemesis of The Doctor and his alien Time Lord race. In S5E3 the IKEA Daleks were introduced. They looked the same as the original Daleks but with colourful Dalekanium (alien metal).

They look like the result of Daleks procreating with Power Rangers.
David: You know, Chris, whenever I see one of those new colourful Daleks I imagine M&Ms shooting out of their appendages.
Chris: Haha, you mean those IKEA Daleks? They look like toys, don't they?
David: Yeah! They look like they're made from plastic instead of Dalekanium.
