Higurashi no Naku Koro ni 

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni is a Japanese anime based off of the doujin soft visual novel of the same name.
Set in June 1983 in the rural village of Hinamizawa; it has a population of approximately 2000. Keiichi Maebara moves there and makes many friends; Rena Ryuuguu, Mion Sonozaki, Rika Furude and Sotoko Houjou. Hinamizawa may seem like a peaceful and calm town, but not everything is as it seems. Every year, during the annual Watanagashi Festival, one person disappears, and the other is murdered. Keiichi soon becomes involved in this intricate mystery... and solving it will not be easy. He is constantly dogged by extreme paranoia and illusion. But even with these obstacles, the mystery slowly reveals itself.
- "Higurashi no Naku Koro ni is a good but scary anime!"
- "The characters in Higurashi are so cute!"
- "Man, Higurashi scares the living crap out of me."
- "The music in Higurashi fits it really well."

This is usually done to show an insane or angry expression to a character. The name originates from the anime Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni. The show is infamous for having a lot of strange faces that will make you feel extremely uncomfortable.

Himura Kenshin 

A small, red-haired man whose deceptively harmless form contains the power to topple governments and fell madmen. Some authorities believe he may actually be an early attempt at battle mecha, rather than a living, breathing being. His usefulness (or destructiveness, depending on one’s point of view) is curtailed by the fact that he is easily controlled by his spunky and somewhat demanding landlady. Also has a weakness for children, and a tendency toward making overly dramatic speeches. Attracts adoring women like picnics attract ants, a phenomenon which baffles most male researchers, while their afflicted feminine counterparts can only rhapsodize about flame-bright hair and Himura’s darker personality.

Himura Kenshin's darker personality, the Hitokiri Battousai breaks free whenever the rurouni is under a great deal of stress -- kind of like a Meiji Era Incredible Hulk (he even does the yellow eyes, but draws the line at the icky green skin). He is stronger, meaner, sexier, and far less polite than Himura's normal self: quite definitely not a force to be dealt with lightly.

In most circumstances, the only way to awaken the Battousai is to threaten the life of someone Himura has decided to protect; however, when it comes to his landlady, even looking at her wrong is grounds for beheading. This process is referred to as "going Battousai", and while Kamiya Kaoru is firmly against killing, protective anger suits her just fine. In fact, it seems likely that the only way she'll ever get some action is to spend quality time with the hitokiri.

(note: Definition shamelessly stolen from h2g2.)
Gohei: "So, do you believe too, that a sword is for protecting people?"

Kenshin: "No. I believe that a sword is a weapon, and Kendo is a technique for killing. Miss Kaoru believes that I cannot kill a man... (smiles) I just love her naive impression of me! I wish that it's the truth, but I'm afraid it isn't."

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
