1971 Emerson, Lake, and Palmer album

Name given to the armadillo tank painted by William Neal for the album that became "Tarkus."

In homosexual american culture: the thankful reciever of bukakke and donkeypunches. often known to make silly and inane comments in desperation for approval. A tarkus is by definition an extremely ugly nasty stupid and essentially valueless piece of human trash.
TarkusENC: A Tarkus known for seat fetishism and smell of rotting fish.
