1. Cheap liquor or alcohol. You must really want to get drunk tonight if you keep drinking that conk-buster—it's disgusting! Come on, we're not in college anymore—we can afford better booze that than that conk-buster. Whew, I took a sip of that conk-buster and nearly spit it out! Don't you have any decent alcohol here?

2. A challenging situation or problem. Well, that's a conk-buster—I don't know if a mathematician could even solve it! A: "What is weightless but can be seen, and if you put it in a bucket, it will make the bucket lighter?" B: "Hmm, I don't know. That's a real conk-buster!" The complete lack of physical evidence has made the case a conk-buster for forensic detectives.
