bratager 

a child between the ages of 5 and 12-ish.
a child of this age is named a bratager because they behave like spoiled brats, demanding quite a lot from their parents, yet you can't kick them out of the house yet; at this point a bratager is not yet an idiotager and is therefore not old or smart enough to even try and flap their own wings like an idiotager, the latter trying to burn your bridges.

to institutionalise

(verb): to scholarly define using a complicated, convoluted vocabulary) a word or concept in order to manipulate the politically passive and/or ignorant masses of our mediacratic society.

N.B: not to be confused under any circumstances with the verb to institutionalize, i.e to stow away, under lock and key, someone in an (in most cases mental or penal) institution !
boy: father, what is Communism?

father: it's a scholarly term. As far as scholarly terms are concerned, even if you are a pundit, any one can, in our own mediacracy, try to institutionalise any term they want.

boy: So Karl Marx was the first to institutionalise the term communism?

father: yes.

pigs don't fly

a boy, after attending physical science class in elementary school, tries putting scissors in the kitchen plug.

His mother starts admonishing him:

mother: is this f-sag you twit? what are you doing, you'll create sparks, burn the house down. Pigs don't fly. Go to your room now (starts chasing him with a broom)

boy a) have you heard of the Mumba-Yumba tribe, it's somewhere in Africa. Would you know if they have a Sanhedrin?

boy b) sorry dude, you are barking up the wrong tree. I am a history, not an anthropology, major. Therefore your question is not my brand of whiskey. And here is more cattle fodder. My dad and uncle are holding a chemistry and biochemistry Sanchedrin at Bakersville Hall, my late grandparents' country estate.

hitting the sauce 

being a gas wholesaler/pundit, talking intellectual sounding nonsense about any given scientific discipline
boy : Is barium chloride edible?

mother: how dare you Victor? What? talking such nonsense when you've been educated in one of the best private schools in the country? Please do us all a favor, stop hitting the sauce, all right? Now, go relearn your chemistry.

weather grandpa

or grandma if refering to a girl): an offensive term for a person who is always quetching about, as the name suggests, about the weather.

N.B: this term was named based my personal observation that it's mostly old grumpy grandmas and grandpas that quetch about the weather.
everybody hates a weather grandpa, especially when the person doing the complaining is under 40 of age and is driving everyone around them nuts.
