Chester Bennington Effect
Public grief, memorial, and fondness to a person (usually a celebrity) for their good past memories, immediately after hearing recent news about the person's death—despite the same group of people having forgotten, hated, or otherwise disregarded the person immediately during the last period when he/she was still alive.
Billy: *Sad* Joe! Chester Bennington (singer of Linkin Park) and the Dad from Home Alone (John Heard) died just today. They were my childhood!
Joe: *Squinting with a smirk* Yeah, well, you never talked about John Heard before. I bet you never even knew his name until you saw that social media link. And just two days ago you said you hate Linkin Park's newest albums, and that the band sucks!
Billy: *Denying it* I never said that! What I really meant was...
Joe: Nevermind. It's the Chester Bennington Effect . Two days ago, everyone except for LP fans stopped talking about him or instead hated him. Only after he died was when people grieved about the loss of the singer of their previously-unspoken-about childhoods.

grebo
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
