Epithet/curse, originally said in Mandarin Chinese, as part of a Firefly episode. Basically, an expression of admiration or horror, depending on context . In Chinese 神聖的睾丸, roughly said "Shun-SHENG duh gao-WAHN"
Upon walking into a room full of vintage arts and crafts:
Steve: Are these all yours?
Joan: Yep. Collection started with my grandmother, we just kept adding to it
Steve: Holy Testicle Tuesday!
Joan: Thanks!

Holy Wood was a concept album released by Marilyn Manson on 2000 after the Columbine High School massacre and serves as their rebuttal at the accusations leveled at them. Their frontman has described it as "a declaration of war".
The record made numerous allegories to pop culture history to show how everyone had a participating role in Columbine: From Abraham Zapruder to the JFK Assassination, from the Beatles' White Album to the Charles Manson murders and from the Crucifixion to the Dead Rock Star celebrity worship phenomenon, Manson left no stone unturned to give america a righteous ass-kicking.
Notable themes:
1.Guns, God and Government - rightwing America's main obsession that, arguably, fucked Klebold and Harris up more than any 'rock' or 'metal' album.
2.Celebritarianism - a word coined by Manson to describe a devotion to celebrity and celebrity culture. In the album it is a religion that canonizes dead celebrities into saints in the same way the crucifixion canonized Jesus Christ into a superstar messiah and celebrity. In effect, the crucifixion is the root cause of shit like reality TV, Jersey Shore, TMZ and Harris and Klebold's desire to become famous by murdering people.
Holy Wood was never a commercial success and received mixed reviews from music journalists who said the band's artistic pretensions overshadowed the powerful lyrical indictment contained in it. Despite this, many people view it as the band's finest hour.

Kerrang Magazine: ...There has still not been as eloquent and savage a musical attack on the media and mainstream culture as Manson achieved with Holy Wood (In the Shadow of the Valley of Death).
Me:If you thought what Manson said about Columbine in Michael Moore's documentary was incisive, you should see how Holy Wood throws his detractors hypocrisies right back into their faces.

When you are witnessing a couple with many chidren who are trying to wrangle them in, trying to turn chaos into what appears to be order.
When a girl walks in to TGIFridays and notices the large family of young children trying to have dinner all at once, she walks by and looks to her friends to say " Holy Jon & Kate Plus 8!"
