Asian Parent Syndrome

Asian Parent syndrome, often abbreviated as APS, is a genetic disorder prevalent in young Asians. It is characterized by a high level of expectation and discipline. Often, it can result in social disabilities. Also, common symptoms include excessive studying, fear of the letter "B," and high stress levels. Males are especially prone to this disease.
Hey, can Cho-Chang come to the party?
Nah, her APS is acting up again. It's forcing her to study.
Aw, dude, that sucks. I can't imagine living with that

I think Zhang's Asian Parent Syndrome is acting up again. He's hissing whenever he sees the letter "B."

Asian parent syndrome

A deeply integrated thought process in the minds of parents.

This is when an older family member attempts to constrict your identity and choice to fit their ideals.

Expressed through the need to constrict WIFI, the ability to lock doors and the negative emotion that’s expressed when your grade drops by 1 % or the amount of effort you put into things is 1% less than Harvard graduates.
“Hey how are ya doing”
“Ug, my parents wacked me again for getting only a 94 instead of a 95 on my test
“Ah, so Asian parent syndrome”

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.
