Shitrock Monument

Any public place that is frequently littered with excrement. Especially one where you know at one point or another your body left you with no choice but to make your own contribution. Such areas tend to be where you find yourself accidentally stepping in something or feeling disgusted every time you remember the time you did.

Beware of Walker Street. It’s a shitrock monument of epic proportions.

Rabbi Rhodes

Alternatively known as Reverend Rhodes, Alchemist Rhodes, and other titles. None of these titles are usually applicable to the person in question. Used to describe someone you either thought poorly of at first, or held in suspicion due to their bad reputation, when suddenly you realize they are actually a very worthwhile and genuine person.

At first I thought he was a bit of a jerk, but actually he's Rabbi Rhodes! You know totally cool once you get to know him?
