contra mundum 

Literally translated from Latin, it means "against the world". It has been used to describe maverick, 'lone-ranger' individuals who lack interest in culture and relative comparisons made by people that the individual deems 'ignorant' (which doesn't make them wrong, necessarily).
The character Tyler Durden from the movie Fight Club is 'contra mundum'.

Contra-dickhead 

Someone who stupidly contradicts themselves, usually in a complete state of idiotic behaviour.
When I fell asleep on the couch, my wife said "Wake up! Time to go to sleep." I called her a contra-dickhead. I then had to sleep on the couch anyway.

Contra Alto Clarinet 

Contra alto clarinets are tall deep e flat clarinets. They are by far the best clarinet because they are rich and deep and make an awesome bass section. They're way better than baritone saxophones because, they just are.

Crazy clarinet players that play a bunch of instruments love to play the contra alto clarinet and when their teacher gives them some music for it, they get VERY excited.

Contra alto clarinets are reed instruments. A reed is a piece of plastic or bamboo that vibrates when air goes over it and it creates sound. A reed is kind of like one of those sticks doctors put on your tongue.

Since the instrument is so tall, you have to sit on two chairs or even a stool sometimes. It makes you feel powerful like a king or queen. You dominate the whole band.
Wow, what instrument is she playing? Oh thats a contra alto clarinet.

Contra mundum 

As mentioned in Brideshead Revisited (movie 2008), when Charles says he has no family and Sebastian replies "you have me, Sebastian and Charles, contra mundum".
"you have me, Sebastian and Charles, contra mundum".

Contra-Ception 

The sexual act of talking about the video game Contra, so that the woman that you are having intercourse with will get bored and will remove your penis from her vagina before ejaculation to avoid pregnancy when you are unable to remove your penis yourself.
Bill was having sex with his girlfriend, and was about to cum. Lucky he was able to use Contra-Ception to have her pull him out because his hands were stuck.

Or

Tom had his hands handcuffed to the bed, so he Contra-Ceived his girlfriend so that he would not cause a pregnancy.
