In reply to: re: Idiot reviewer calling Andrew Lloyd Webber "eurotrash" - ukpaul 05:22 am EDT 08/15/14

Eurotrash ususally refers to a person rather than a thing, this person being (as I say) hedonistic and morally questionable. They have a penchant for high fashion and are consumeristoc and are therefore looked down on by hipsters.

Looking up the term it appears as though there are two totally different meanings on different sides of the Atlantic. Not quite as embarrssing as the rubber/eraser issue but adding to the incomprehension of one to the other.
