four to the floor 

Especially common in techno, an unaccented 4/4 time pattern in which each beat is marked with a heavy kick drum. This is desperately boring at normal volume but at club levels takes over your entire body. Usually sourced from a Roland 909.

"Driving round town in his Corsa, playing four to the floor German house."

spot the stiff 

When watching a war or disaster movie with a large ensemble cast, to use one's knowledge of the genre and its cliches in order to predict which characters will die before the end.

Fu Manchu 

1. Chinese crimelord created by Sax Rohmer. Once as popular and widely-used as Dracula, and the template for Ming the Merciless, comics villain the Mandarin and countless others. Now considered highly politically incorrect.

2. Style of facial hair. Long, thin, drooping moustache sometimes accompanied by a wanky little goatee. Looks distinguished on older Oriental gentlemen, elsewhere is a crime against decency.

"That's the thing about the fu manchu. On Fu Manchu is looks cool. On you... less so."
