A very large novel by Ayn Rand, a shallow but popular important Conservative thinker of the early to mid twentieth century. It explores many of the themes that later found their expression in Libertarian philosophy. Noteworthy for its interesting political views, paper thin characters and an awkward, implausible plot.
"Atlas Shrugged" is a book that really impresses people who haven't read much good fiction.

A non-verbal body or facial expression (movement) done by Hispanic individuals to express doubt, unfamiliarity, unawareness and/or inexperience in situations where simply ‘shrugging’ your shoulders is an acceptable response. This is frustrating to different cultures (mainly American) because simple body movements, don’t answer all of life’s tribulations.
“When asked why the gentleman hit 13 parked cars while driving under the influence, he responded with the ‘Mexican Shrug’”

Glen Beck was on TV again talking about shrugging his atlas. I can't believe they let people go on TV and talk like that.
Charles Koch was in the bathroom for a long time. I asked what he was doing in there, his only response was, "Atlas Shrugged"
I walked in on Rush Limbaugh in his office, he was atlas shrugging.
