Shelf Esteem

When a person fills their book shelf with trendy novels, reference books, and/or classic literature to make themselves feel better about their base level of knowledge. Also refers to someone talking about a book they just read in a way which seems as if they had read it years before to make themselves sound well-read.
"That guy had the complete works of Shakespeare, 10 or 15 New York Times best sellers, and the Encyclopedia Brittanica 2009 Edition on his shelf. That guy has some serious shelf esteem problems."

"I was about to join one of those book of the month clubs you always see on TV, but then I grew some shelf esteem."

You: "Like that scene in the Da Vinci code...."

Someone Else: "Dude, buy yourself a 12th grade education level and get yourself some decent shelf esteem."

Sheffield, MA

Located in the lovely area known as the Berkshires, Sheffield is an amazing land. Known for it's many (way to many) antique shops. We also have a big elm tree somewhere that apperently is the towns livelyhood, but no one really knows where the fuck it is. With a population of 3,335, about 3,000 of that is made up of annoying weekend New Yorkers that steal our toilet paper and take pictures of our leaves. The locals drink alot of beer and shoot alot of things, and we sure are proud of it. Sheffield also has a variety of strangely named roads, which makes our town very proud. With names such as "Bow Wow" "Ranapo" and "Polikoff", theres no denying you're in Sheffield!
woaaah you're from Sheffield, MA the place with the big elm tree? Mint!

Polikoff? What the fuck is a polikoff? We must be in Sheffield!

Shelf Jelly

The byproduct of a masturbation session where your ejaculate flies from your penis with such force and ferocity that it lands on a distant shelf. The accumulated ejaculate can be compounded over time to form something similar to a Sploogy (an Emmy made of pure cum) or an Oskeet (an Oscar make of oxidized spunk).
Girlfriend: "Aww, that's cute. What's that award on that shelf!"
Guy :"Baby, that ain't no trophy. That's just shelf jelly."

Shelf ass

Noun: a butt characterised by the sharp right angle from one's back, to the top of their ass. The thighs blend straight into the booty, but somehow it is very distinct from the back. It looks like they sat down for so long that their ass flattened out. The sharp angle makes it look and act much like a shelf.
"My teacher has a shelf ass so big that you can stack books on it."

Shelf Bellie

Shelf Bellie (SB) was a Post Nuclear Punk Band influenced by artists such as Cake, Rancid, GnR, NIN and Johnny Cash.
They have been compared to the likes of Infectious Grooves, "Tenacious D (on drugs)" and Smashing Pumpkins.
SB started jamming in the garage in the early 2000's and was playing shows all over Portland OR by the time their debut album was release in the summer of 2006. The group disbanded shortly after their album release do to personal conflicts.

Quotes about SB:
"You might not remember it, but you don't want to miss it" - J. Littlejohn
"This might be the cheapest show you'll ever like." -J. Hodgin
Shelf Bellie is putting the fun back into Rock 'n' Roll.
