boolean value

A human piece of garbage.

You are such a boolean value, Jonas!

Boomer value

When a corporeal thing or asset holds no intrinsic or monetary value, but is considered highly valuable or priceless to the Boomer who possesses said thing or asset. See antique forest green colored furniture, grandfather clocks, and old dinning ware.

I saw on the Facebook Marketplace a 50 year old floral printed couch Boomer valued at $1,000.

core values

This is a new version of the phrase mission statement. These are normally vague and cheesy goals/objectives that cannot be measured.

It's similar in principle to family values but not quite as sinister.

"Our core values are respect, development, empowerment and truthiness"

i.e. we really like these words, they sound great but we sure as hell aren't going to stop selling landmines to rebel armies in Africa.

resale value

When you discover you're disappointed with the car you just bought, this is the amount of money you can expect to recover when reselling it.

If you borrowed money to buy this car, cars with low resale values can put you "Upside down," meaning you will owe more for the car than what you can expect to get for it. Cars with a high resale value will allow you to pay down your remaining loan.

Generally speaking, one doesn't normally need to worry about resale value unless they bought a car because they believed it would suddenly make them "cool."

"I bought a Honda Civic because I thought it would make me cool; but that didn't work. Luckily, it has a high resale value, so I can get rid of it and buy something better."

Literary Value

1) A meaningless phrase that English teachers like to throw around to prevent students from doing book reports on anything worth reading.

2) A phrase that means that something is worthless, meaningless, or a lie.

1) "Of course you can't read Harry Potter for your book report, it has absolutely no literary value."

2) "She told me she's never had sex before."
"Dude, that's got no literary value."

Linkin Park fan: "Linkin Park was great today!"
Me:"Staind was better when they did "Crawl" with Static-X"
