Portuguese knife fight 

Reference to a fighting technique Azoreans especially young females used in the early 2000s to defend themselves against American and British occupats on Lages airbase, as they continually would rape the women pretty soon the women would start killing the men so much that they had to close the airbase.
“Don’t mess with Fatima her dad taught her to Portuguese Knife fight.”

Portuguese Knife Fight 

Something, especially referring to an event, that is casually violent or chaotically aggressive; everyone involved has a reckless, devil-may-care attitude towards the (often serious or important) problem or topic at hand.

Popularised by the band Cage The Elephant, with their song 'Portuguese Knife Fight'.
Zach Casualrapeford: Hey Brock, you seen Barron around?
Brock Chesterwood: Yeah bro, it turns out Ashley reported him to the principal about him raping Stacey. He said he was going to have a word with her and her boyfriend, but he looked like he was gonna get into a Portuguese knife fight instead.
Zach Casualrapeford: I hope he sorts that mess out before his parents find out.
A trip to a grocery store, convenience store, or gas station for the sole purpose of buying an excessive amount of junk food and sugary drinks, usually with friends. A chud run often happens late at night and ends with everyone involved hating themselves afterwards.

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!

Jake's not really that big an asshole. He just serves as my hate sink.
