Startle The Witch

A phrase originating from the video game Left 4 Dead that is to perform an action or say something that instantly transforms your good woman (wifey) from herself to a raving, dangerous banshee.
Jon: Lisa's freaking out man! I don't know what to do!

Pat: What did you do?

Jon: All I said was that I needed a little space.

Pat: Saying shit like that will ALWAYS startle the witch.

Shackteâu

A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.
In use:
Shackteâu - We thought it was an abandoned shed until the realtor called it a rare alpine Shackteâu with unobstructed views and listed it for $2 million.
