Get the Gangkus mug.Gang Busters was a famous radio program that was first heard in 1936 and aired until 1957. The sound effects of police sirens, tommyguns, and screeching tires that opened the show were dramatic and exciting -- this inspired the expression 'coming on like gangbusters'.
Usage has opened up to describe things that are not just exciting, but successful, intense, and many other adjectives, and many drop the 'coming on like' prefix. I think we should be more careful about how we use it, and keep it true to its origin -- something that starts with much excitement and drama is 'coming on like gangbusters'.

Get the Gangus mug.This word is used to describe an un-cool person (Usually a guy) who becomes even more un-cool when seen standing next to, in the car with, or eating dinner with an incredibly hot chick. A gankus usually knows the girl because of family relationship or because she is a co-worker. He does not deserve her, nor should he be in her presence. He has no chance with any chick, except for a gankus girl.
