The horn in an automobile. Used in conversation to describe the idiotic act of continuously honking the car horn for several seconds instead of doing what is safe and prudent while traveling at an unsafe speed... applying the brakes.
So named for the unfortunate driving practices of Mexican cab drivers.
Also known as the Egyptian brake pedal.
Yo Vashon! Don't slow down at that intersection. We are going to be late for our drug deal! Give 'em the Mexican brake pedal... those pedestrians will get the Hell out of our way!
If your vehicle develops a brake line leak, the act of merely adding additional brake fluid after the pedal starts to go soft, instead of making proper repairs.
We were so wasted in Cabo that I didn't realize we needed to give the car a Mexican brake job before starting the drive home -- I nearly rear-ended several cars!
A relationship between two people who are equally as cool as each other. They are as individually awesome and fun to be around as they are when they are together.
Neither one depends on the other for their feelings of self worth- they know in their heart that they are just as valuable to the world as the other. Good looking, optimistic, and sparks a light in the world that people recognize that goes beyond a normal relationship.
In a powercouple, if one person is flawed, the other person makes up for their weaknesses in strength. Together they are the epitome of what anyone would desire in a relationship. They encourage goodness in the world and make it a better place by being together.
I'm a fan of those two, they are such a power couple, the epitome of what anyone would want in a relationship.
I am envious of them because they are a power couple.
A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.
In use:
Shackteâu - We thought it was an abandoned shed until the realtor called it a rare alpine Shackteâu with unobstructed views and listed it for $2 million.
