total bullshit. most americans know the atlanta-based cable network TBS, and that it was formerly called Superstation TBS. instead of using the acronym for Total BullShit, TBS, one can say 'superstation' instead.
say you're playing call of duty and someone kills you from the other side of the map with a single bullet to the head from a thompson, you might exclaim, "that's fucking superstation."
