"Helrode" is the original name of a village belonging to the town Eschweiler in Germany/Rheinland. The village today is "Hehlrath" (Look at wikipedia!). It was founded by Gerardus de Helrode, a "Ritter" and "Schöffe" in Aachen, who lives at his Castle in Helrode, which perhaps was the Haus Cambach, today the Bauernhof Kugel at the Oberstraße or the Bauernhof Schleip near by the church.
The name of Hehlrath in the dialect today is a shortform of Helrode: Hähle.

(Noun) - The Greek God of being wrong. Actually the Latin and Greek spelling of the name Herod a common name before Herod the Great, Herodes Magnamus, tried to kill baby Jesus. He kinda screwed up the future of that name.
"I prayed to the Greek god Herodes yesterday and nothing happened because he doesn't f***ing exist."

"My dad told me I wasn't going to amount to anything in life, so I prayed to Herodes to make him be wrong it didn't work."

"Remember when Herodes tried to kill Jesus?" "Yeah, that was a dick move."

Power Couple 

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 power couple, 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.

Shackteâu

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.
