When someone suddenly displays their uber score to someone, thinking their score is higher, and discovers their score is lower.
He took out his phone at the steakhouse, shoved it in his dinner partner’s face, and said “my uber rating is higher than yours”; oops, that was an uber fail, as his rating, 4.97, was lower than his dinner partner’s rating, 4.98.
A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.
