precession 

The idea that the social idea of time exists in the past while the structure of time exists in the future.

Proffering that consciousness is in front of human-time, as it exists in the future.
Precession is the assertion that consciousness is actually the structure of time, and it exists in the future.

The Precession Controversy 

This is my parody of the infamous "Procession Controversy," which split The Church, to two parts, the Catholic, and The Orthodox. This is before a third split, appeared in the 16th Century, when The Protestant Church appeared. Note Orthodox, and Protestants, hate The Catholic Church, which is horrible. Why can't all Christians get along? The Apocryphal Gnostic Acts of John, says Jesus's disciples, danced around Jesus, but doesn't say what direction, whether it was clockwise, or counter-clockwise.
The Precession Controversy, could have split the early Gnostic Church, into two parts, The Clockwise Church, and the Counterclockwise Church. The Clockwise Church, says Jesus's disciples, danced around him, clockwise. The Counter-clockwise Church, says they danced around him, counter-clockwise. They even can be a Simultaneous Church, which says half, danced around Jesus clockwise, while the other, danced around him counter-clockwise.

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!

Hate Sink 

A person you hate intensely not because they deserve such hatred but because they serve as a focus for your general hatred. A healthy way to dispense with excess animosity.
Jake's not really that big an asshole. He just serves as my hate sink.

A toe rag was originally a foot wrapping used, since mediaeval times up until the mid-nineteenth century, to protect the foot from chafing by boots or shoes. As these were, quite literally, rags they weren’t usually washed, and so with use they became very smelly until they were thrown away. Because of the similarity in smell, toe rag also became the name applied to dried, salted cod or other things with a strong, unpleasant, fishy smell. It didn’t take that long before the name was applied to someone who was an obnoxious, unpleasant OIC.
1 “Socks! Those aren’t socks you smelly git, they’re toe rags!”
2 “What have you been cooking? Smells like toe rag!”
3 “I can smell ‘er fanny from ‘ere, proper toe rag.”
4 That Heale Malcolm is a right toe rag.
