Sham house

A sham house is a house or home that is built to look like it has an abundance of square footage from the outside, but is actually quite small on the inside, like when the garage is attached and the garage door is not visible from the street, making the garage appear to be living space from the outside when it actually is just the garage.

"Wow, did you see Chuck's new house? I drove by it today and man, is it impressive! He must have like 5 bedrooms, 2 living rooms and a game room in that thing!"

"Yeah, he invited me over when he first bought it, and its smaller than it looks. It's just a sham house. He calls it his palace, but I was like; "Yeah right, more like BuckingSHAM Palace.""

phone-house

To end a phone call by slamming it violently on the ground. The motion resembles how an NFL player spikes the football on the ground after scoring a touchdown. This action usually destroys the phone completely which is why it is such a rare and exciting event. Most likely derived from the football slang term pick-house.

"I knew Steve was completely wasted when he took his phone-house in the middle of the bar."

"I was so pissed when I found out she slept with Jake, that I took my phone-house."

Fall House

Fall House is an event common to many fraternities. For one weekend during Fall, a fraternity will rent a house in the mountains with room enough to seep all undergraduate brothers and their respective dates. The fraternity brothers will split he cost of the house evenly. Each of the brothers' respective dates purchases and decorates a cooler to give to him and fills it with his alcohol of choice. Everyone parties the whole weekend. For many a brother, this is the best weekend that he will never remember.

Doug was so schwasted at fall house last year that he woke up in another state.

hippie house

An exceedingly dirty dwelling inhabited by at least four dirty people who never clean up after themselves. Often accompanied by trailers, vans, buses, a yurt, or any other thing they can attempt living in to, and using the main house for the bathroom or kitchen. It's an unclean hell and you don't want to live there.

Jane will be living in the bus, but for now she's sleeping in the living room of the hippie house.
