1. The famous saying of the crime-fighting vigilante, The Shadow.
2. The introduction from The Shadow radio program "Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!" spoken by actor Frank Readick Jr., has earned a place in the American idiom. These words were accompanied by an ominous laugh and a musical theme, Camille Saint-Saëns' Le Rouet d'Omphale ("Omphale's Spinning Wheel", composed in 1872). At the end of each episode The Shadow reminded listeners that, "The weed of crime bears bitter fruit. Crime does not pay... The Shadow knows!"

Powers/Abilities: The Shadow possesses incredible physical abilities. He possesses astonishing reflexes and is an incredible marksman with a gun. He also has incredible muscular control and can slip his body through the bars of a prison cell like a contortionist or can actually distort and alter his very facial features at will by manipulating his facial muscles. He can also survive for hours without air and was also ambidexterous. He is regarded as highly experienced in various disciplines of hand to hand combat as well.
His greatest power is his ability to “cloud men’s minds”. He can hypnotize people instantly so that he can move as an invisible shadow. He can also hypnotize people so they forget things or to command them to perform certain acts (he once forced a criminal to write a detailed account of his past crimes).He is an expert in many different languages and is also a master ventriloquist (he can project or “throw” his voice).
He is also a master of disguise and has been known to impersonate others, even fooling their friends and family members. The Shadow is apparently an expert aircraft pilot and skilled in infiltration and information gathering techniques due to his experience as an intelligence agent.
He wields a pair of .45 pistols and employs a fleet of automobiles and aircraft in his various operations.

expression. used in substitution for the popular response "cool story bro" first described in forums online. This expression however, is a direct quote from the hit movie "kung pow." This famous scene occurs during a dialogue with the "chosen one" and master tang.

Psychological despair after passing up an opportunity that would have yielded positive effects because it seemed unsafe. The term is named for Pete Best, the original drummer for the Beatles who dropped out of the band because he believed the band wasn't going to make it. The term also creatively uses the name of the Beatles' hit song, "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band". The term gets it's origins from a play named "Sgt. Peter Best's Lonely Hearts Club Band Syndrome".
When she started seeing someone else, he had a bad case of Sgt. Peter Best's Lonely Hearts Club Band Syndrome because he didn't ask her out first.

When a gay man is extremely in to women once he has been drinking alcohol.
Did you see Lance hitting on all those women when he was drunk?! His husband would be pissed! That guy is such an I heart baloney phony!
It means you're mentally hurt like jealous or sad and you can feel the pain in your heart.
Her: *sees crush*
Him: *texting another girl from across the room; making eye contact and smiling*
Her: *gets jealous and gets punched in the heart*
Having your heart fixed after it being broken
Andrew: I'm not really heart fixed after Ruby 💞
