apartment

A confined living space. A gerbil cage for humans. That is, a shower, microwave, food, bed, and toilet, all contained within a few hundred square feet. An apartment dweller typically knows the sex habits of the dweller above and the favorite music of the dweller next door, but would not recognize the face or name of either.
Apartment construction materials include: cream colored linoleum, cream colored latex paint, cream colored carpet (extensively spotted), cream colored pre-formed shower, cream colored counters and dark brown hollow-core doors.
I just leased a new apartment. It's a nice unit; I don't have to wait long for the community clothes washer and it only costs 75 cents a load.

Dude 1: "Dude, I just downloaded an app that organizes app-organizing apps according to the compass direction that points from my position to the GPS coordinates of ISP used by the developer of the app."

Dude 2: "Dude, You have officially joined the apparati."

Hot Apartment Syndrome

A term used to describe an apartment that, despite being located in a temperate climate and is equipped with air conditioning, is africa-hot 24/7. Like most sexually transmitted diseases, one is not aware of this disease while viewing the apartment, but rather experience it after sleeping in it one time.

Typically even when you find the source of the heat, there's no way to shut it off and the superintendent, who's a dickbag, laughs as he apologizes at the same time and says sorry. Good thing you signed that 2 year lease last week.
I don't get it! I've been running the AC for 3 days straight at full blast and im still sitting in ball-soup. Its like this place has Hot Apartment Syndrome or some crap.

I don't want to stay at your place tonight, your place has Hot Apartment Syndrome. It's like fucking Zimbabwe in there.
