Bully special is a type of cocktail that became a favourite of UK gamblers in the late 90's to either celebrate winning - or drown sorrows when losing. It consists of 3 parts scotch, 3 parts Absynth, 2 parts pineapple juice and 1 part rum. It is quite vile in taste, expensive and very bad for the consumers health. They are sometimes served lit on fire for dramatic affect.
Ian went to the bar and asked Dave what he fancied, Dave said come on then, get me a Bully Special. They both ended up in the local jail later that night!

A mechanic's special is usually a vehicle listed far below its blue book value, with a few minor issues outlined that any competent backyard mechanic can easily diagnose and fix. This problems are usually referred to only in the vaguest of terms, such as a "clunking sound coming from the transmission" or "hissing sound from the radiator."
Of course, these problems turn out to be much more severe - such as a blown headgasket, thrashed transmission, detonated cylinder, and the like. The odometer reading is often conspicuously absent from the reading. The owner will often feign ignorance about vehicles in hopes of getting rid of it at a good price, but actually are often competent car people themselves.
The only valid use for a mechanic's special is as a parts vehicle, and only then once the owner has been talked down to a reasonable price.

Get the Seth Richey Special mug.A special event that occurs when three or more hobos enter an abandoned Winnebago, wrap their faces in plastic wrap coated in hemmeroid cream with cocaine, and begin sticking some D’s in some A’s to Lynyrd Skynyrd’s rendition of the Star Spangled Banner. If the event is well planned snakes, rats and sometimes even squirrels, if nearby, are wrapped up in tortillas with lime juice and even their A’s get some sweet Hobo D’s. At the end of the night everybody has a finger in either a Hobo, Squirrel or rat’s pooper.
“This is what I’m saying...you, your friend, and us hobos in that old Winne there...a plastic wrap special...some D’s in some squirrel A’s, Bobby’s hemmeroid cream...and lots of plastic wrap. Very nice evening...oh yeah. Relaxing.”
