Monkey's Dad's definitions

vacuutemporal

The experience of life without time. The absence of a temporal dimension, an extension of the simultemporal state.
Accustomed to the simultemporal experience, in which past, present and future are simultaneous rather than sequential or linear, effectively living time all at once, he was increasingly subject to vacuutemporal states in which the delusion of time dissolved.

Bewilderness

An emotional space in which you become hopelessly tangled, unable to see the trees, blind to the forest, wandering in circles, lost.
How had the relationship gone wrong? Could she have just trashed him? No, she must have meant... something else... because... words are only words, he can't be all of those things she called him... or any of them. After so many good times... and why was it getting dark so fast? He'd find his way out of the Bewilderness, in a day or a year. Maybe.

Fomosexuality

A state of arousal, desire and dread, brought on by the certainty that everyone else is enjoying more exciting, more frequent and more imaginative sex than you are.
One look from the Air France flight attendant and Albert's fomosexuality zoomed into high gear, such was the look in her eyes, the slightly disordered hair, her swollen lips, and the hushed thickness of her voice - he knew - knew! - that she had enjoyed a wildly sleepless night, had rolled out of bed just in time to make her flight, that the two men and one woman who had shared her bed were all sleeping in a state of satiation as thick and fragrant as the Cappuccino she was extending to his trembling hand as he muttered his barely-coherent 'Merci Giselle, ah, merci'.

carpe perdiem

Grab the money the company offers for lunch, incidentals and travel, because you are grossly underpaid for your talents.
He hadn't had a raise in two years, and was working twice as hard. The least he could do was carpe perdiem.

Zentriloquism

A deeper level of ventriloquism, in which the Zentriloquist, without a sound, makes a dummy have thoughts he would not normally think.
Vern was not the brightest bulb in the drawer, that was for durned sure, yet for no reason he suddenly thought, "I am one with everything". He noticed the guy with the shaved head, wearing saffron robes, sitting across from him, staring into his eyes and smirking gently. Just might be that Zentriloquism he'd heard about. Then, "I am free from all desire".

Hoppandemic

The current social, emotional and psychological isolation, brought about by the pandemic, prefigured by American painter Edward Hopper, many decades before the fact.
How had Hopper foreseen it? Isolated souls, trapped in vacant rooms, staring out windows at the empty American landscape, in the grip of a virtual Hoppandemic.

working like a dog

"Man, I've been working like a dog", he muttered into the phone, his feet up, eyes on the game, the bag of Doritos on his chest almost empty. There must have been a time, long ago, he imagined, when dogs spent their lives herding cattle from sunrise to sunset, but any actual 21st century dog he knew was lazier than The Dude.
