coon

An affectionate name for a Maine Coon cat.

I adopted what I thought was a grown, neutered cat, but when I brought him to the vet for a checkup, I found out he was a 6-month-old, unneutered kitten. Needless to say, he grew to be a 20-pound monster because he was a coon and I didn't know it.

swami

A person who knows and points out the truth before you can weasel your way out of it. A type of a mind reader.

I thought I could get away with fibbing about sneaking food in the middle of the night. Little did I know I was dealing with a swami, and she doesn't let me get away with anything! The woman can read my mind!!!

poof out

To sneak out of the house without your fellow household members knowing where you are, and not leave your loved ones any way of contacting you.

You forever poof out on us, so I might have to file a missing persons report.

I checked the kid's room in the morning only to find out he poofed out in the middle of the night.

conscience

A sense of right and wrong, something neocons right-wing republicans, and other garden variety sociopaths do not have.

You have to check your conscience at the door to work for the White House nowadays, simply because the Bush administration doesn't have one.
