Holden Caulfield 

The most real literary character I've read from the novel The Catcher in the Rye. JD Salinger, the author of Catcher himself, often referred to Holden as a real person, saying things like, "No, Holden wouldn't like that."

Depressed throughout the novel, he takes jabs at the injustices around him, calling many people and things "phony," and while usually true, stating this only made him more depressed.

People he liked included his dead brother Allie, his kid sister Phoebe, and Mr. Antolini, a teacher at a former school of his who cleaned up the dead body of Kevin Castle after he killed himself by jumping from a dorm window.
Some quotes of Holden Caulfield:
"Goddam money. It always ends up making you blue as hell."

"High school's full of phonies, and all you do is study so that you can learn enough to be smart enough to be able to buy a goddam Cadillac some day, and you have to keep making believe you give a damn if the football team loses, and all you do is talk about girls and liquor and sex all day, and everybody sticks together in these dirty little goddam cliques."

"Sex is something I just don't understand. I swear to God I don't."

Holden Caulfield 

to 'pull a Holden Caulfield' is to go on a trip with no real aim in mind; a day trip (or night trip) that is completely reliant on one's stream of consciousness; based on Holden Caulfield's random journey through New York from J. D. Salinger's novel, "The Catcher in the Rye."
We had no idea what we wanted to do or where we wanted to go, so we pulled a Holden Caulfield and rambled around for a while.

Holden moment 

A “Holden Moment” is when a person says something specifically to offend, trigger, or insult someone. Another example is when someone says something sexist or racist in front of/towards a person that the offensive term would apply to.
“Did you hear what joe said?”
“Yeah, that was a Holden moment.”

Holden Commodore 

Commodore have been given a bad name due to the fact the drivers of them are the worst you could ever see on the road.Also to the fact that they are built out of rice paper. They do the following:
1- Weave in and out of traffic even during peak hour.
2- Will try to race you despite any Commodore they own. Ie If they own a VT and you own an Aurion they will still try and race you even though they have no chance.
3-If you are on the highway, and doing 10km/h above the speed limit, they will still be going faster than you
4-Tailgate anywhere anytime
5-Sit on the right lane of the highway and never ever move as they tend to think they own the road
6- Commodore owners thinking they have Ferraris
7- Foglights on during the day to give you the impression that they look cool and that you should get out of their way.
8- Putting later model commodore bodykits on earlier model commodores to make them appear cool. Body kits often do not appear to fit properly
9-Typical australian male with your base model Commodore and hubcaps and by adding a spoiler they are all of a sudden thinking they have a BMW or Merc and they are king
All of these things add up to Commodore drivers being the worst on Australias roads.
"Wow im doing 130km/h and that Holden Commodore is passing me like im standing still"

"Hey mate, see that car coming with the fog lights on? I bet you $100 that the car is a Commodore"

"Bloody Commodore tailgaiting me!"

"Oh look at the accident on the news, another Commodore driver lost control of his car"
