jumping the grenade

An action performed by the wing man, this situation arises when the said wing man takes one for the team by hitting on the fat/ugly chick in order to help his buddy/buddies score with her hot friends, and therefore, sacrifices himself by jumping onto the grenade.

The pin is said to be removed from the grenade when one man goes in alone, and the grenade prevents further interaction with the hot chick(s). Therefore, the jumping of the grenade must be performed immediately before all soldiers are blown to smithereens.
The hot chick's fat friend was successful in cock blocking me because by the time my wing man was jumping the grenade, his coverage was not sufficient enough to protect us from the explosion. Attempts in obtaining intel (phone number, email address, conversation, dancing, etc...) have been thwarted.

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.
