comonopoly 

(com•mon•op•o•ly) n.

When an independently owned, and hence lesser known brand is bought by a larger company that easily appeals to the mass market. A comonopolous takeover results in the original street cred of the lesser known brand to be completely annihilated.

However, what it loses in independent kitsch, the new parent company find the deal extremely lucrative as they can now produce a cheaper product in bulk and market it to throngs of generic people everywhere.
Nike knew they would have a comonopoly when they bought Converse.

Kraft preformed a comonopolous takeover of Cadbury.

flophouse 

Any house/apartment/frat house/trailer/etc. which is used for individuals to crash (sleep, chill, hang out, lurk, etc.) for a period of time. In order to "crash", one must not actually live there (e.g. have their name on the lease, own said flophouse, etc.). Flophouses are typically used by college students, drug addicts, transients, vagrants, or other unsavory characters.

A flophouse may also be the home owned by the parents of a college student, who after being away at college, wishes to live as if he/she is still at college (e.g. staying out all night, returning just to crash at mom and dad's house, then leaving again), rather than conforming to the pre-college rules.
Example #1
Dude: (Talking to someone passed out face first on the floor of his college apartment) Hey man, who the hell are you? What do you think this is, a flophouse??

Bro: Sorry dude, I must have passed out for a minute.

Example #2
Mom: Where have you BEEN for the last three days? You come home just to sleep?? What do you think this is, a flophouse??!!

Son: What's your problem? I'm an adult now!
