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."

all that

Superior. Admired. A cut above. Possessed of the qualities envied by one's peers. Most often encountered when one guest on Jerry Springer feels another to have too high an opinion of themselves.

"She thinks she's all that, but she ain't."

hulk out

To become enraged; to lose one's temper, clothing and power of coherent speech before embarking on a spree of violence and wanton destruction. After the comicbook character who turned from an unregarded geek into a thundering green mass of unstoppable fury.

"It all happened so fast... the Broncos ran in their fifth touchdown and he just Hulked out. I hope he's going to pay for a new TV. And window."

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. Good picks include Spitfire pilots talking moist-eyed of their upcoming marriage, hysterical mothers and either half of a couple celebrating their fiftieth wedding anniversary.

krak-a-thoom

The noise made by a thunderbolt or when Thor strikes an object with his hammer. Used by comicbook geeks to illustrate a description of a dramatic event, especially an outburst of parental rage.

"Dude, Julie's mom just found her stash. It was, like, krak-a-thoom."

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."
