Frankenstein

An extremely overrated, overly wordy and hard-to-read book by Mary Shelley. Could be described as boring considering that pages and pages are spent talking about nothing.
"Everyone said this movie was amazing but it's terrible! I can barely stand to watch it!"

"Yeah, it's such a Frankenstein!"

Frankenstein

To take better quality components from outside a piece of media (album jacket/records, dust cover/books) and match with better condition media (record, book, etc). to create an upgraded final version worth keeping.
The cover on that Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon is in great condition. I'll frankenstein the good vinyl of my other copy to make a keeper copy for my collection.

Frankenstein bike

A bike made from hella different kind of components. You can see a Giant frame, with a set of god knows what kind of shifter and derailleur, maybe the front has a hydraulic brake or maybe it has a mechanical brake. What ever parts were used were probably taken from another beat up bike.

When all is said and done you have a frankenstein bike.
Dang check out that whip, what kinda bike is that?

No, idea it’s considered a Frankenstein bike. Made up of so many different components/brands. All I know is that it rides sick, brahhhh.

Frankenstein

To find a solution to a problem that uses very convoluted methods.
The Wi-Fi was bad in our basement, so I set up a high power receiver down there, attached it to a router, then connected my work computer to ethernet through a 100 foot cable. Bit of a Frankenstein, but it works!
