A name granted only to those who are kings among men. Known for their stunning good looks, unparalleled intelligence, and wielding the strength of 10 men - recognizing a Nuhman is almost as easy as picking out Michael Moore among a tribe of starving Eithiopians.

These powerful beings are burdened with the task of using their power for good, benefiting all of human kind with what has been given so freely to them.

Yet, these magnificent beings have one weakness... an unsatisfied belief in trust. Luckily, their associate do not allow them to fall for people not trustworthy or surely destruction would rain down upon the land. Still, this want for friendship and trust often prevents the Nuhman from achieving his full potential - instead opting to satiate their intense social givings... inevitably pushing their task of creating a Utopia for mankind further and further into the future.

If confronted by Nuhman, he is easily giving and forgiving and easy to take advantage of. Often the shock of witnessing their raw image can be blinding and in extreme cases, cause unconsiousness or even death.

Can be used to describe anything fantastical or mindboggling in nature.

n. "You cant trust anyone but Nuhman will always be there."

adj. "It's breathtaking, startling, it's... Nuhman.
Nuhman is a smart and brilliant guy

Gary Numan syndrome 

A promoter's fear of not selling any pre-sale tickets for a fucking legendary artist! Goddamnit!

In reference to Gary Numan's gig in Geneva (Switzerland)on May 16th, 2006, when not a single pre-sale ticket had been purchased (though an intimate crowd of people got their tickets at the box office on the night of the concert).
- Hey mate, I've just booked this great artist to perform at a really neat venue, but I fear that no one's going to buy a ticket because everyone's a fucking ignorant!
- Dude, you've got the Gary Numan syndrome.
- Fuck!

Gary Numan 

Gary Numan is an English songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. He was signed to Beggars Banquet in 1979 and released the album Replicas (which went to number one in the UK) in the same year with the band Tubeway Army. Replicas, The Pleasure Principle, Telekon, Dance and I, Assassin were all released between 1979 and 1981 and they are heralded as genre-defying new wave albums. Unfortunately, due to large debts and a desire to reconquer the charts, Numan ended up recording a series of below-par albums during the best part of the eighties and early nineties. It was not until he released the album Sacrifice in 1994 that he began to show again his lyrical prowess and capacity to innovate. The following albums, Exile, Pure, Hybrid and Jagged, as well as a newfound following among artists such as The Foo Fighters, Nine Inch Nails and Marilyn Manson have greatly improved Numan's reputation, and given him a cult fan following throughout the UK.
The more I disregard the signs
The more I glide.
The more I walk across the lines
The more I fly.

Numanoid 

The ever faithful fans and followers of music legend Gary Numan. They stick with him through all the ups and downs, never faltering in their devotion. They are also a higher and more evolved species of beings than the average human. They can often be found queing up together at concert venues hours before his concerts. You can spot them by looking for the black eyeliner.
I am a Numanoid and proud of it!

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
