Spectacle creep 

A phenomenon occurring when the creator/creators of certain a media franchise (in games, movies, comics, etc) try to keep things fresh and interesting by unwisely making everything bigger, better and more spectacular. This can lead to the feeling that everything up to that point didn't really have a point or that everything after this point is pointless since it's just so ridiculously over the top.

Spectacle Fighter

A term first coined by "The Escapist's" resident Australian game critic Yahtzee, to describe a genre of fighter in which a game's focus is on the visual beauty of fighting enemies as opposed to actual realism or other aspects of game play.
All you ever do in Mad World is kill people extravagantly for points - it's totally a Spectacle Fighter.

Spunktacles 

Shooting your muck on the face of a willing partner, framing her eyes in thick ropes of jizz.
"How'd you get on last night mate?"

"Sound. Got a BJ off a scuddie behind a skip. Pulled out just in time to give her a pair of spunktacles!"

pentacle 

The pentacle is a five pointed star within a circle, the points representing the four elements (fire, water, earth & air) and ether (spirit) and the circle represents eternity as most pagans believe in the eight-fold year and the spiral dance. Inverted it has been known to be used by satanists and some wiccans to represent materialism.
I wear a pentacle and I'm proud of it.
