stand-alone complex

A situation in which the observers can assume the conclusion that multiple subjects are acting as a system for a common goal (a complex); but truly, all subjects had zero involvement with each other and it was merely coincidence that they seemed to have a common goal (stand alone).
Police are looking for suspects for 2 murders and a robbery. at the seen of the murders and the robbery a picture with Justin Beiber with a gunshot to the head is found. The police take this as being the signiture of the suspect/s method of operation. At the end of the cases a suspect was found for each case but all of them had no connection to each other and the Justin Beiber picture was dropped by one suspect, another was already at the scene before it had happend, and the other was dropped after the suspect left. The police had just witnessed a stand-alone complex

stand up surprise

Noun. A person who appears to be of average weight and size based on their face and upper body but who has an ENORMOUS lower half. The term comes from meeting someone at a table and speaking with them for a while thinking that they are a slender person (based on the face and upper body) but then getting a surprise when they stand up from the table and you see their large lower half for the first time - hence... "stand up surprise". The top/bottom differential must be extreme to count as a stand up surprise.
"I was flirting with this girl all night long and I thought she was such a skinny babe, but when she stood up from the table I saw that she had a HUGE ass. She was such a stand up surprise."
