desolation row 

The name of a Bob Dylan song. Indicative of a place where people who do not fit into society(free thinkers and artists) go to live. It does not necessarily have a negative connotation. Often visited by posers attempting to look cool by hanging out with the real free thinkers.

He is so literary. He must be straight off of desolation row.

Queen of escalation

A reference to Taylor Hebert from Wildbow's "Worm" Alia 'Skitter', 'Weaver', K̵͚͕͈̺̖̈́͂́͝͝ê ͍̠̹̳̬̂̍̾̕̕þ̵̣̟̲̹̆̃̉͛̀͜h ͕͔̭͉͛̈́͒̆͘ͅṛ̴̨̣̗͕͂̄̉̌̌ï ͍̮̺͕̹́̑͂͐̉

A God once tried to kill Skitter. I don't see any gods around here, do you?
Yes, the queen of escalation escalated against god. And won.

Once, the queen of escalation tried to deescalate and surrendered to the lawful authorities. Over the next twelve hours, she killed one of the most powerful heroes in the world and a decorated military officer, and forced the evacuation of a square mile of city. She got a medal for it.
