Capital: A Critique of Political Economy
A book written by Karl Marx and published in 1867 that deals with the development of capitalism and its problems. It is generally highly admired for its foresight of how capitalism would eventually develop over time.
Note that Capital: A Critique of Political Economy is purely criticizing the status quo, predicting its development and pinpointing its problems, while the Manifesto of the Communist Party (or simply Communist Manifesto) offers possible solutions to these problems.

For full effect, when saying this about someone, be sure to exercise the proper body language. I.e. raise one eyebrow, give a 'knowing' look, and slightly nod your head. Afterwards, follow up by saying, "You know what I'm saying?" and continue nodding to gain agreement from your audience.

fache-couture
French slang, which translated, means "bull's fashion" but basically equates to "hyper trendy" or overly trendy. Used when a person wishes to express distaste at the latest fashion trend/fad, because it seems that everyone has a certain item of clothing or is wearing it. This term is most frequently heard in Paris but is slowly spreading to other parts of France.
