Baan Vu is the warm, friendly, fuzzy feeling that a person gets when they think of Bangkok. It's the sense of peace, friendly smiles and safety you get when you are anywhere else in the world and you think of the sound of the 7-11. the taste of street pad thai, or women screaming "massage" at you. Baan is from the Thai for home and vu from deja vu.
I was just walking down the street in France and was thinking of Cheaper Better Street food and I have serious baanvu.

A Baanu is one of the best females you’ll quite possibly ever meet. She’s usually a pretty happy person and will always have your back. She has a good vibe and can make you laugh real easily, with a little bit of dirty humor... (; She’s a total mood changer (in a good way of course). If you ever come across a Baanu, try to become her friend.
Girl 1: Woaah who’s that?
Girl 2: Oh her? Thats Baanu.
Girl 1: She seems awesome, could she be my friend?

Girl 2: Of course! Shes super friendly and would be glad to hang out.

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!
