A phrase that can be added on to the end of a statement to make it sound obvious-- implying that the other person is stupid if they didn't know the statement.
Frenemy: So, have you kicked him out yet?
Anne: No...?
Frenemy: What are you waiting for? He'll never change.
Anne: I'm not sure wha--
Frenemy: He's cheating on you, you know that, right?
Anne: Oh! Uh... yeah... I...I uh totally knew that...*cough cough*

Norville's explanation of the hula hoop in The Hudsucker Proxy, a comedy film by the Coen brothers.
Norville: But I got big ideas.
Old man: I'm sure you do.
Norville: For instance, take a look at this sweet baby. (Shows a drawing of a circle.) I developed it myself. Yessirree, this is my ticket upstairs. (The old man looks at Noville as if he's an idiot.) You know, for kids!
Old man: Terrific.
Norville: So, see how I won't be working in the mailroom long.
Old man: No, I don't guess you will be.
(In a board meeting.)
Norville: You know, for kids! It has economy, simplicity, low production cost, potential for mass appeal, and all that spells out great profitability. I had the boys down at R&D throw together this little prototype so our discussion here can have some focus and to give you gentlemen of the board a first hand look at how exciting this gizmo is. It's fun, it's healthy, it's good exercise, the kids will just love it, and we put a little sand inside to make the experience more pleasant. But the great part is, we don't have to charge an arm and a leg.
(The board looks at Norville as if he's an idiot.)

A person, usually an acquaintance, who you find completely detestable. The mere mention of their name is enough to fill you with a feeling of dread, while an encounter with this person inevitably leaves a cloud of misery hanging over an otherwise pleasant day. This term is derived from a common reference to Lord Voldemort from J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series.
"I bumped into You-Know-Who the other day...that basically ruined my week."

The best spots are that way because they are little-known gems.
The term is shorthand for “if you don’t know about insert amazing place to surf/skate/mountain bike/climb/board/fish then I am not going to be the one to tell you.”
dude 1: "... hey bro where'd you surf today?"
dude 2: "Old faithfuls. It was firing - sick barrels, hardly anyone out"
dude 1: "Oh noice. Where the heck is that place? Someone else was sayin' it was going off the other day"
dude 2: "If you know you go..."
