get on the trolley 

To be "with the group" or to "be cool" as determined by your peers. The "trolley" would be something one would want to be on.

One may also want to make it a point of saying that someone is not on the trolley, instead of just saying that they should get on it. This implies that the person is so uncool that they cannot even try and be cool.

Another popular use is pointing out that a particular member of your friends circle is on the trolley in an attempt to rub it in the face of the person who isn't.

This phrase is usually used in a ribbing manner towards friends.
(After making a faux pas, doing something the group would consider uncool, etc) Come on Jason, get on the trolley.

Adam is definitely not on the trolley.

See Ryan? Now, Austin is on the trolley.

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!
