driving like a pissed off teenager

Originally from Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, anytime a real driver loses his or her touch, putting themselves in a position where they endanger their own safety or that of the other drivers on the road, they are said to be "driving like a pissed off teenager".
Lucius: "You know you're driving like a pissed off teenager, okay?"
Ricky Bobby: "This sticker is dangerous and inconvenient, but I do love Fig Newtons."

breakdown

Sections of hardcore / metalcore / deathcore songs which are rhythmically appropriate for most forms of hardcore dancing (mosh), but not appropriate for two-stepping. In order to be rhythmically appropriate, the music must conform to the following requirements:

1. Tempo: Breakdowns are characterized by tempos in the 65 bpm - 70 bpm range, but also spanning from 50 bpm (double breakdown), to 90 bpm (fast breakdown / stomp breakdown).

2. Content: Breakdowns are further characterized by strong emphasis on rhythm, snares on the 2nd & 4th quarter notes, cymbals on either eighth notes or quarter notes, and kick drum patterns which accent the often staccato guitar playing. Many modifications to this formula can be made (displaced snares, melody), but these modifications tend to detract from the maximum impact of the breakdown.

Because these two requirements must be satisfied, entire songs can be breakdowns, and do not need to contain any fast parts. As well, many slow sections of songs of these genres are not breakdowns, because they do not meet the content requirements.
Pantera is generally recognized as the originator of the breakdown, as featured at approximately 3:52 of "Domination" off Cowboys from Hell. Today, this part of Domination would be recognized as an "old school" breakdown, and only the old timers would hardcore dance to it.

kangaroo petrol

Special fuel that causes manual transmission vehicles to travel in short spurts, stopping and starting intermittently. Coincidentally, the true power of kangaroo petrol can only be unlocked by drivers with little experience driving manual transmission vehicles.
Louie - Gee Walters, looks like there's too much kangaroo petrol in that there gas tank for you to handle.

Officer Walters - Then we'll tow it. Either way, we're repossessing all your stuff.

Louie - I swear; she told me she was 18.

Forgetful Lucy Day

Forgetful Lucy Day is celebrated every October 13th, in honor of the date on which Lucy Whitmore had her terrible car accident.

From the film "50 First Dates", Lucy Whitmore (Drew Barrymore) now lives out every day believing that it is still October 13th.

Couples and friends can celebrate Forgetful Lucy Day by pretending they've never met before, buying a pineapple, watching "50 First Dates", and sending each other walrus-themed cards.
Darren - Good morning babes, Happy Forgetful Lucy Day!

Geraldine - AAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!! Who are you and what are you doing in my bed!!!!!!!!

flood

(v.) to fill an entire bar, form, or part with kick drum, played rapidly and without variation.

Power Metal as a genre often uses songs entirely composed of flooding.

While flooding can be interesting when used in moderation, it is often relied upon by less skilled drummers to make their playing sound either heavier or faster.
Zack - I think we might need to fire Kevin. We write really great parts, but he has a propensity to just flood through them all.

Marty - You should have figured, I mean your drummer is just an orangutan you stole from the zoo and taught to play drums.

Zack - Where else would we find a drummer that looks like Animal from the Muppets?
