the thingy on the wall that controls the temperature of the room. Of course, it will always be too hot or too cold.
The cunt said "its too hot" so I turned the thermostat down and an hour later she's complaining its "too cold in here". So I undressed her and warmed her up in bed.

A window open in the dead of winter, as used by tenants of apartments with building-controlled heating (typically steam radiators), which presumably doubles as a basement blast-furnace and would otherwise boil the occupants alive. So-named for its prevalence in the NYC borough and similar metropolitan areas with many pre-war buildings.
"That open window ain't a 'waste of energy,' it's the Brooklyn thermostat, and I swear d'ya it's the only thing keepin' us all from becomin' kebabs!"

The intense, although very sneaky, altercation where two or more inhabitants of the same living space continually adjust the thermostat to their respective preferred temperatures, without the knowledge of the other person(s).
I set my thermostat to 65 degrees last night, and now it's at 80! My roommate must be declaring a thermostat battle!
