TA Syndrome

This is a condition common to those that have served/are serving for the Territorial Army in which they delude themselves with grandeur and demand respect in day to day "civi" life based on the fact they are in to TA.

People with this syndrome do not suffer since a secondary symptom is being utterly oblivious to how they are despised by the real army and civilians alike.

Not all members of the Territorial Army have this syndrome, but those that do can be detected by the fact they will bring up the fact that they are in the TA within seconds of starting conversation.

Bartender to regular: What a cunt.

Regular: Yeah, TA Syndrome.

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.
