Adirondack lantern

Noun - A water vessel (e.g. kayak) where the semi-translucent hull is illuminated from within at night; like a Floating Chinese lantern.
We put headlamps in the bow and stern of a rotomolded kayak to make it glow and paddled across Upper Saranac Lake.

I popped some really bright glow sticks in my Hobie Cat hulls for night sailing, and it looked like the Star Trek Next Generation Enterprise nacelles at the beginning of the show intro.

A group of kayakers went on an Adirondack Lantern paddle last night.

Awkward Lantern

Someone who transcends awkwardness in social situations, and even can control it and use it to their own advantage. An Awkward Lantern is somebody who can talk to anybody, and redirect any awkwardness in a conversation unto the other parties, by refusing to acknowledge it. Named after the superhero Green Lantern, because whereas a Green Lantern has control over the color green, an Awkward Lantern has control over awkwardness. Although they are rare, awkward lanterns are usually very adaptable and quick-thinking individuals. A true one can be dangerous if not a friend, because they have allies in the most unexpected places.
"I can't believe he got invited to that party!"
"Of course he did. He's an Awkward Lantern."

Wanker Lanterns

The row of LEDs under the main headlights on any new Audi. They always seem to be lit, no matter how bright the sun is on any particular day. They serve no purpose other than to alert other road users to the fact that the driver of the Audi owns an Audi, and that their Audi goes faster than your car. Unless you own a Porsche.
"Oh look, an Audi driver has driven right up behind me with his Wanker Lanterns on."

Late Registration

Kanye West's follow-up to The College Dropout includes tracks such as "Diamonds (From the Sierra Leone)" as well as "Gold Digger" Feat. Jamie Foxx and many other great tracks. This album is surprisingly largely produced by Jon Brion. Late Registration released on August 30th 2005 is an instant classic like the last Kanye album.
