Alpha Nerd 

A person who has the traits of a nerd (meaning knowing lots of nerdy things and acting nerdy about nerdy topics) but seemingly lacks the social rejection stereo-typically associated with nerds and is able to somewhat positively interact with and become involved in non-nerd beings and culture.
Since he was an alpha nerd, Thomas was able to transition from a Pokemon conversation with Liam to casually discussing the previous night's homework with Chloe.

Alpha Nerd 

Contrary to popular belief, the Alpha Nerd is, as in software development, the lowest of the nerd hierarchy. The Alpha Nerd is not necessarily the least intelligent of a given pack of nerds, but instead is the most likely to come to erroneous conclusions based on information. The Omega Nerd is the highest of the nerd hierarchy.
Err is to Human as Error is to Alpha Nerd.

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.
"Hey bro you tryna go on a chud run with me??"

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.
