LAN party smell
The way your computer usually smells after a LAN party.
Although this also goes for massive LAN parties, it's especially appliable for private LAN parties.
When you are playing with friends at private LAN parties, they are most of the time held in relatively small rooms with bad air ventilation (like garages or living rooms). Sitting with at least eight people in a small room breathing the same air with running computers for a whole night long gives the air a nasty smell. When you are in it yourself you don't really notice it (ever been in a bar?). When there are smokers there (this is in 99% of the cases true) it makes it a lot worse.
Computers circulate air trough the case with fans to cool the components inside. If your computer runs all night in an enviroment like that, it has circulated a lot of that air trough it. So, the next day when you come home and turn your computer on for the first time, you'll get a blast of nasty air out of the back of the case. Usually it takes at least 2 days of full running time before it disappears.

LAN Cave
A spin on the phrase Man Cave with LAN Cave. A LAN Cave is a place where LANs or LAN Parties are held. The LAN (Local Area Network) is a network of computers and specifically a LAN Party is a network of computers where gatherings of PC gamers play games against each other. LAN Parties were once and are still very popular in the gaming community. LANs are typically held in the garages or basements of serial gamers hence the phrase LAN Cave.

I always look forward to the LAN Holiday season. It's the only time of year that I get to gather with my nerd friends in my parents' cold basement for Starcraft and get pissed off to no end because no one can seem to set up the network. We never learn from the year before.
