Batman Complex  

This occurs when you do good/nice things for people and nobody cares or acknowledges what you've done for them much like the relationship between Batman and the City of Gotham.
Tom: So I watched over Joe's house while he was on Va-Ca and when he came back he didn't say thanks then he was pissed because i misplaced his frying pan. what a dick!

Pete: Yeah you've got a real Batman Complex on your hands.

Batman complex 

When you do alot of good in the world, but you know that it will gain you many enemies so you shun much of public life. You gove up relationships, have an uneasy relationship with family, and you build up your body and your mind every day for the fight every knight
So why doesn't John ask Stephanie out?
Oh he cares too much about her. With his Batman complex, he knows that she will never be safe

Batman Complex 

The tendency the general population has to follow and praise those who are slightly above average, instead of those who have achieved much greater things.
Average dude: "Hey, look at this athlete I'm following on instagram, he can bench 100kg!"
Well-read dude: "That's cool. I'm following this chick who can bench 110kg. She's a middle-weight powerlifter. You can follow her too."
Average dude: "I don't know about that..."
Well-read dude: "Maybe you have a Batman Complex then?"
Average dude: "Maybe.. Bye"

Batman Complex 

someone who takes it upon them self to take on a perceived danger no mater how ridiculous (even if it is only a one percent chance)
Look at Bill going off to put in those outlet protectors to protect his kids.
Aren't they 10 year olds?
Yeah he has a serious batman complex going on

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.
