recycletude

An individual's, a family's, or an organization's attitude toward recycling. This may include the approach toward recycling of materials; or penchant for shopping at thrift/consignment stores, or participating in garage/yard sales.

Our neighbors had great recycletude: they always filled their recycling bin to the rim, they usually shopped at thrift stores, and they held regular and well-attended yard sales.

Origin (as far as I know): Universal Furnishings & Offerings (U.F.O.) is an eclectic home decor store in Phoenix AZ. The owner, Leonardo, told me that he created the word (among many others). The word is on the price-tag of all items for sale in the store. I believe that he would agree with the definition I have written and submitted above.

I don't buy the schmegegge about Morty sleeping with Moira.
His version of the story was pure schmegegge.

Stroad

Noun. Portmanteau of "street" and "road": it describes a street, er, road, built for high speed, but with multiple access points. Excessive width is a common feature. A common feature in suburbia, especially along commercial strips. Unsafe at any speed, their extreme width and straightness paradoxically induces speeding. Somewhat more neutral than synonymous traffic sewer.

Did you see what the traffic engineers want to do to our street? They're going to turn it into a total stroad!
