Urbanlism 

Fundamental believers of Florida Football Coach Urban Meyer.

Football is life; Win at any cost;

“Its part of a grand vision for them, a Fundamentalist Gator Agenda,” “They are conspiring with the pro-ESPN and Briscoe High crowd and corrupt CEO’s (Nike and Depends Adult Diapers) to create an America devoid of morality. I’m afraid it may get worse before it gets better. With the activist sports media shamelessly promoting Urbanlism, we may see more rules being circumvented to benefit these Soulless Bastards.

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!
