I went to a Korean place last night, and I ordered something that turned out to be dog. Cynophagy seems OK to me, it tasted great with rice and pepper sauce.

microcynophilia

A devastating psychological disease in which the sufferer mistakes the likes of chihuahuas and dachshunds for actual dogs. In severe cases, the sufferer may even prefer the company of such animals. Female microcyniphiles may even carry them around in their purses.

If a person prefers dogs whose life expectancy is higher than their weight, than he or she may be suffering from microcynophilia.

The best treatment for micrcynophilia is a nice large dog, such as a golden retriever, great Dane, or St. Bernard.
I broke up with my girlfriend after I saw her carrying a teacup chihuahua in her purse; she never told me she had microcynophilia.

2) An intellectual person who lacks the communication skills to articulate his or her knowledge in a sophisticated or even coherent manner.

3) Someone who sometimes seems very smart, and at other times very stupid.

4) A person with great intellectual potential who squanders his or her mental gift for the sake of popularity or convenience.

5) An intelligent person who uses his or her gift inappropriately. Someone who is smart, but not smart enough to stay out of trouble, or who uses his or her gift to get into trouble.

My dog knows enough to open the cupboard door, slide open the lid to the bread box, and open the bag of bread without knocking anything onto the floor, but he's not smart enough to stay out of trouble in the first place. He's such an genioramus!
