Something that seems trivial or unrelated to a larger thing, until you try to remove it. From a Simpsons episode where Rod (or Todd) tries to remove a Krusty the Clown poster from his wall, only to watch the wall start to crumble apart
Bartsaid to Rod "Careful... That's a load bearing poster."
A seemingly unnecessary file in a computer program, which causes the entire program to stop working for unknown reasons when it is removed. The term originates from an online hoax about an image of a coconut in the files for Team Fortress 2, which supposedly caused this problem when deleted.
Windows is such an unoptimized mess under the hood, but it's probably impossible to fix it because it might be full of load-bearing coconuts.
A fantasy/sci-fi cliche, wherein the defeat of a given villain triggers the catastrophic destruction of its immediate environment, ie: the dungeon collapses, the planet explodes, the spacecraft implodes into the 37th dimension, etc.
Game Master: "The giant falls dead, but just as you think you're safe you feel the floor of the cavern begin to shake and rumble ominously."
Player: "Aw crap, he's a load bearing monster! Loot the body and run!"
“i know dude, it definitely looks like we’re in for some skyload tonight”
“dad what is that big ominous cloud covering the sky?”
“that’s a load bearing cloud, son. i reckon it’s gonna shower us with load here within the hour”

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
