Jersey lightning

applejack, a brandy made by distilling hard apple cider (from the fact that the distilleries that produce it are in New Jersey)
a shot of Jersey lightning, let alone plain old brandy, is enough to make me sick.

Jewish Lightning

Intentional arson to one's own business or home in hopes of receiving insurance money for the damage. Usually done to a home or business that you are having no success selling and are just really desperate to retrieve home equity from. The practice can be prosecuted under numerous felonies, but rarely is, because it's very hard to prove you intentionally set fire to a building. Often times, some idiots pour gasoline all over their building in hopes of it burning faster, but that's the most common way people get caught for it. As soon as the cops and the fire department smell gasoline and see it everywhere, you're getting arrested for arson and attempted insurance fraud, and you won't get a penny from insurance.

The term is in reference to the fact that, prior to WW2, most Jewish businesses in Europe were boycotted, so they went out of business. Because they were out of business, and no one wanted to buy a Jewish business, the businesses and buildings were essentially worthless because no one would buy them. But because, on paper, the business and its building still had value, Jews would often intentionally set fire to their own businesses in hopes of getting insurance money from it, because that was the only practical way they could take back the equity value of their business.
Bob's convenience store went out of business, and then coincidentally burned down after he failed to sell it. He got a million dollars of insurance money.

Bob also wanted to move after this, but since his home wouldn't sell, he set fire to it to get insurance money. This time, however, Bob was impatient, so he poured gasoline all over his house. This was a bad decision, because as soon as the fire department and the cops got there, the smelled the Gasoline and knew it was Jewish lightning. He got arrested and convicted of arson and attempted insurance fraud and got sentenced to 5 years in prison. He also got no insurance money.

Unexplained lightning powers

Example 1: A fictional character with unreasonable amounts of power, ability, or skill. As stated by the name, they are usually unexplained, yet on the off-chance may be. If they are explained, the explanation is lacking or downright retarded.

Example 2: A sudden burst in might, whether literal, political, or otherwise.

Derived from a Metal Gear Solid flash that joked about Volgin at times, poking fun at his control over lightning.
Well here comes Mr. Gary Sue and his fuckin' unexplained lightning powers. Say bye to your characters, guys.

Those were some unexplained lightning powers Hitler whipped out of his ass.
