Monster Claws

-Noun

Also known as "Monster Paws."

1.) A term coined by singer Lady GaGa after the release of her song, "Bad Romance," in which she demonstrates a Michael Jackson a la "Thriller" hand motion. It is formed by spacing the fingers apart and contorting them, as if mocking the claw of an animal, or - more fittingly - a monster.

2.) A hand sign often displayed at Lady GaGa concerts by fans in which they mirror the aforementioned action.
1.) GaGa flashes her Monster Claws when she hangs up on Beyonce in the music video for "Telephone."

2.) When she was live in Chicago, GaGa yelled at the crowd to "get those claws up, monsters! I wanna see your monster claws!"

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!
