Scotlanding 

Used in reference to continuous sporting disappointment. To snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory. To throw away a winning position normally completely of your own making. To provide false hope to a nation that you might just reach a modest sporting achievement only to crash everyone back down to earth with a full on double dose of reality.
We were 5-0 with a minute of the game left but then ended up totally Scotlanding it.

We’re winning but I have a horrible feeling we’re going to end up Scotlanding it.

I Honestly thought we were going to do it today, but then I remembered we always end up Scotlanding it!

I thought Timmy was going to win the egg and spoon race, but he tripped over his laces at the finish line and smashed his egg, totally Scotlanding it!

Power Couple 

A relationship between two people who are equally as cool as each other. They are as individually awesome and fun to be around as they are when they are together.

Neither one depends on the other for their feelings of self worth- they know in their heart that they are just as valuable to the world as the other. Good looking, optimistic, and sparks a light in the world that people recognize that goes beyond a normal relationship.

In a power couple, if one person is flawed, the other person makes up for their weaknesses in strength. Together they are the epitome of what anyone would desire in a relationship. They encourage goodness in the world and make it a better place by being together.
I'm a fan of those two, they are such a power couple, the epitome of what anyone would want in a relationship.

I am envious of them because they are a power couple.

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.
