Capasitor 

A Capasitor (the purposely misspelling of Capacitor) is a faulty electrolytic capacitor that fails in a short period of time (1-3years). Most Capasitors are the result of incorrect electrolyte formulation in aluminum electrolytic capacitors.

Its rumored the "S" in Capasitor is from "Shitty" and like the wrong formula was simply stuck in there .

A electrolytic Capacitor that explodes instantly from being installed backwards is not a Capasitor, as that is a install error and not a component manufacturing problem.

The Capasitor plague was a period between 1999 and 2007 when Capasitors were killing in a large number of products.

Capisce (pronounced cah-PEESH) is an Italian word that is used in American slang to say "got it" or "understand." The correct word in Italian would be capisci (pronounced cah-PEE-shee) to address the second person informally, a.k.a. you. Capisce, in Italian, is used only to address the second person formally (like when speaking to an elder or someone you don't know) or to express that a third person (he, she, it) understands. The correct Italian pronunciation of capisce is cah-PEE-shay.

To say I understand is capisco (cah-PEE-sko).
You better get outta my house before I break your face, capisce? Yeah, capisco.

Capastoric

Describing a collection of caps. Bottle caps, assorted variety, all together as an amazing collection.

Story behind the word. My 8 year old, Kara Hay came up with this word as we were waiting in line to recycle our bottles. She noticed all the different caps and wants to start a cap collection. "It will be capistoric." (Amazing and a variety)
This cap collection is capastoric!
