Snape Factor

n. A quality a man (or less commonly woman) is said to have when they are found attractive, but for no obvious or discernible reason. They may not be physically attractive, smart or possess any typical desirable qualities, but are nonetheless alluring. Possession of the Snape Factor is often subjective, and it is rare for two people to agree about it.

The phrase originates from the character Severus Snape, of the ubiquitous Harry Potter series, who is dark, snide and almost ghoulish in appearace, but is considered attractive by many nonetheless. He has the Snape Factor.
Girl A: I don't know why, but he's kind of cute, somehow...

Girl B: Are you crazy? He just chased a squirrel down the street with holy water!

Girl A: Yeah, but-- I don't know, he just has the Snape Factor.

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
