hootenanny

A party, most generally one that is, well, chock full of hoot, with just a little bit of nanny.

Oz: We should figure out what kinda deal this is. I mean, is it a-a gathering, a shindig or a hootenanny?

Cordelia: What's the difference?

Oz: Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig: dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage; and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

Xander: Well, I hate brie.

coolhunting

The practise of infiltrating youth cultures in an attempt to understand and predict trends and styles for the purpose of informing corporate product development and marketing.

"I am going coolhunting"

Example 1) Red Bull is reported to have once filled garbage cans near nightclub districts in London with empty redbull cans so that punters would think it is a fashionable new thing.

Example 2) It is reported that coolhunters have been paid to visit night clubs to have conversations that can be overheard about certain products.

Example 3) Brahma Beer from South America recently recruited an "Art Ambassador" and a "Music Ambassador" in my local area, who's job it is to identify cool music/art events that they can offer free beer sponsorship to.
