alpha centauri 

I'm guessing you're curious about why so many movies, tv shows, and games reference this aren't you?

Alpha Centauri is probably one of the most important star systems in the galaxy to us because it's the closest, only a mere 4.3 light years away.(yeah real close! lol) Another thing that makes this star system so important is it sports a G2 star which is basicly a sun just like our own except the one in the Alpha Centauri system is bigger. People refer to this star as Alpha Centauri A, she has a little brother named Alpha Centauri B which is a K1 type star and they have one other sibling named Proxima Centauri which is just a red dwarf many say. It's because of this systems G2 type star many believe there may be planets that have oceans and other life producing elements. It's because of this that alot of scifi writers will always want to reference this star system so their work will have a small basis of truth and possibility to it.
"Damn, where the hell do you think these little big-headed grey dudes keep coming from?"

"It's obvious they are coming from somewhere close, probably Alpha Centauri."

Alpha Centauri to the nines

To be better, striving for advancement. Change from an advanced being in the distant yet close galaxy.

To bypass all religious, agnostic, athiest beliefs and/or non beliefs and what could also be called "reaching across the isle".

Alpha Centauri Star System is also the nearest planetary system to our solar system. The idea is any sentient being with the capability to reach Earth, must be enlightened beyond Earthly beings.

To the nines means to " Strive for perfection".
C'mon man, try not to social lump, just because one earthling stole doesn't mean we're all thieves, Alpha Centauri to the nines.

A trip to a grocery store, convenience store, or gas station for the sole purpose of buying an excessive amount of junk food and sugary drinks, usually with friends. A chud run often happens late at night and ends with everyone involved hating themselves afterwards.

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!

Hate Sink 

A person you hate intensely not because they deserve such hatred but because they serve as a focus for your general hatred. A healthy way to dispense with excess animosity.
Jake's not really that big an asshole. He just serves as my hate sink.
