eggshelling 

Shortened word for "walking on eggshells".
New neighbors moved in upstairs a month ago. I could hear rapid and heavy footsteps (footstomps?), loud chatter, and laughter. Each night, between 2am and 4:30am, loud voracious sex every day upstairs. They did not know how thin the floor is between me and them, so they did not hold back. One day, I put my Ninja coffee maker on the "Clean" cycle. Storm clouds roll in halfway through my clean cycle as my upstairs neighbor says "Of fuck" x 20 "Oh yeah" x 20. As I'm pulling food out of the fridge, I involuntarily hear her have the most quaking orgasm I've ever heard--like Barbarianna's call to Thor from Kung Fury (Kung Fury 2's coming out btw). I may or may not set the food down and pulled my phone out to recordit.

Two minutes later, while I'm holding my phone with the Voice Recorder app up to the ceiling, my Ninja coffee maker gives me the beep to end all beeps, literally as loud as a smoke detector, telling me how very clean my coffee maker is. If you live in an apartment complex, you've probably heard smoke detectors in other people's apartments. I mouth "Oh shit", and I run to the coffee maker and shut it off. (I probably skipped the "Flush cycle" doing this)

Now, I think they know I'm down here, and we have been eggshelling ever since. The footsteps are infrequent. I don't hear them have sex anymore. I did hear her giggle quietly while writing this though. That made me feel better, knowing they're still happy.

Shackteâu

A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.
In use:
Shackteâu - We thought it was an abandoned shed until the realtor called it a rare alpine Shackteâu with unobstructed views and listed it for $2 million.
