In chat, like IRC, means like "What the person above me said".
DrOlRaw: iTunes froze up
@Vineman: iTunes sucks
%Smokey: ^^^

A smiley used in certain IMs for a shark emoticon. Used by some obsessives in places where it won't translate automatically into a picture.

X^ and ^X or ^^^ 

X refers to the sentence/context of the message you're replying to. (^) the direction of this symbol, will determend the direction of the message you're replying to. X^ means one message up to the right (usually your own message). ^^^^^X means 5 messages up to the left. This symbol can be displayed on it's own, usually this means that the person just wants you to look at this message, but it depends on the context of course.

X can be used in capital or not, you often don't even use X on It's own, but it can be used for directions if you don't have a/any sentence/context.
X^ and ^X or ^^^ are mostly used in chats for practical reasons:

I'm fine
Are you fine?

x^

(This conversation points to that you have all ready said that you're fine and you don't want to waste time on writing it again).

The sacred combination of boredom to be found by you, INSERT NAME HERE. If you found this, you started at the top row, held shift, and typed each key at the top In order from left to right 3 times each.
You: Try every combination! Find the unused combination!
Other man: I’ve found it! It is ~~~!!!@@@###$$$%%%^^^&&&***((()))___+++
You: No, because the person who wrote it found it first. You have to see the *NO DEFINITIONS*.

flophouse 

Any house/apartment/frat house/trailer/etc. which is used for individuals to crash (sleep, chill, hang out, lurk, etc.) for a period of time. In order to "crash", one must not actually live there (e.g. have their name on the lease, own said flophouse, etc.). Flophouses are typically used by college students, drug addicts, transients, vagrants, or other unsavory characters.

A flophouse may also be the home owned by the parents of a college student, who after being away at college, wishes to live as if he/she is still at college (e.g. staying out all night, returning just to crash at mom and dad's house, then leaving again), rather than conforming to the pre-college rules.
Example #1
Dude: (Talking to someone passed out face first on the floor of his college apartment) Hey man, who the hell are you? What do you think this is, a flophouse??

Bro: Sorry dude, I must have passed out for a minute.

Example #2
Mom: Where have you BEEN for the last three days? You come home just to sleep?? What do you think this is, a flophouse??!!

Son: What's your problem? I'm an adult now!
