vocal minority

The small group of individuals that frequently and strongly voice their opinions, constrasting with the silent majority that makes up most of the population base, but rarely give their opinions.

Mostly used to refer to forums of a particular service or product, such as a video game.
Vocal Forum Poster : Oh my God, I totally hate all the changes that have been made to this game! You all suck!

Game Developer : Noted. But we're not going to undo the changes, because only the people that don't like them would take the time to come complain, the vocal minority of players. Most people are happy with the changes, and wouldn't stop playing the game to come post on these forums.

F minor

The saddest of all musical keys, the harrowing and melancholy key of death and depression. Used in plenty of acerbic Soviet waltzes and funeral songs.

This key is made out of 4 flats, namely Bb, Eb, Ab, and Db. The relative key is the key of A flat major, another depressing key, even though it is a major key

This key can describe what life feels like when your pet dog, or best friend passes away. Same feeling applies when you know your life is heading nowhere, and you walk down a street, pondering about your time left.
Schubart: "F minor - Deep depression, funereal lament, groans of misery and longing for the grave."

My life feels so empty and distressful, a piece in f minor would describe my mood well.

Мы проиграли войну , и мы никогда не увидим наших жен снова. Мы будем иметь болезненный конец . Это чувствует, как F minor

English: The war is lost and we will never get to see our wives again. We shall meet our painful end. This feels just like f minor.

Minstrel Cycle

n. The recurring cycle of changes in the behavioral patterns of certain individuals that is repeated roughly once every 28 days; marked by a strange attraction to wear European Renaissance style clothing, play the lute or lyre, and the desire to serenade rich people.

PMS, or Preminstrel Syndrome relates to the physical and psychological symptoms, including reciting poetry, talking in Shakespearean language, strong attraction to flamboyant clothing and stringed instruments, and occasional outbursts of heralding, that occur from 2 to 7 days before the onset of minstrelization.
"Why is Dave standing on the balcony performing such a ridiculous musical number in that awful green tunic?"
"Oh, he's just on his minstrel cycle, nothing to worry about."

Minstrel's Bane

"The Minstrel's Bane" is an addendum to the Palma Sutra, the ancient vedic discourse on self-pleasure. "The Minstrel's Bane" is when you slip your flute into the case of the novice piper and allow him to practice his scales.
Apernam, though displeased with Shakti's falling prey to the Minstrel's Bane, forgave him, for he too was once fooled by the False Celery.
