Smash Hit

one of many vague, nebulous, meaningless marketing hype phrases with no prerequisites, rules or regulations required to differenciate between them.

see: hit, break-out/thru, smash.

they imply that the product is already in some way "successful" & therefore is deserving of your attention, because you the consumer are a follower & couldnt possibly find something interesting on your own unless thousands or millions or others had already experienced it & said it was worth your valuable sheeple time & interest.

After a decade long career, selling millions of albums and touring the world several times over, the band finally had a 'smash hit' that went to number 30 in the charts.

ghetto faries

The legend of the ghetto faries is about faries that wander the streets at night cleaning the curbs of presumably valuable garbage. People place their old furniture, appliances and other unwanted items on the curb at night. The faires are said to take the items before the garbage collectors or Salvation Army can pick them up.

I put some old furniture, appliances & clothes out for the Salvation Army to pick up, but the Ghetto Faries took it all before they could get here.
