Get the Ambodextermug. This is very old slang, but is still used occasionally It refers to a person who falsely claims to have medical knowledge or qualifications, especially one who dispenses pills, potions and ointments that have curative properties. The word comes from the Middle Dutch word kwaksalver which means one who sells salves and ointments. Although seldom used nowadays quacksalver is the origin of the term quack which means pretty much the same thing.
“Johnny’s in hospital with pneumonia, his doctor missed it!”
“What did you expect, the old bastard is past it and no better that a quacksalver.”

Get the Quacksalvermug. Noun (plural). It means the sort of assholes who try to get their advert accepted as an Urban Dictionary definition. The sort of people who try to get a flattering definition accepted, of themselves if they haven't got any friends, or of some female if they think it will help them get into her knickers. These are the same sort of people who will attempt to get an unflattering description of someone accepted as a definition because that person has pissed them off and they are too weak or chicken shit to do anything else about it.
In short they are people who are weak, ineffectual and friendless, a failed evolutionary experiment that should be consigned to Mother Nature's rubbish dump. Incidentally the noun singular (Winky) is also the name given to a minutely small penis - says it all really.

Get the Winkiesmug. This is a really versatile word which can be used in at least three different ways although there are probably more:
1. An informal name for the vagina, also known as snatch, pussy, fanny, twat and a less complimentary form stench trench. What is quite interesting is that the word was in common use during the Middle Ages and was not perceived to be offensive and was the name given to a number of streets in various British towns. E.g. Parsons Street in Banbury Oxfordshire was once called Gropecunt Lane; could there be a connection in the name change?
2. A derogatory name for a person you intensely dislike.
3. Possibly the commonest used is as an acronym standing variously for
a. Computer User Non-Technical (someone who is a total fuck up when they try to use a computer);
b. Completely Useless Non-Thinker (someone who is a brain dead motherfucker);
c. Cannot Understand New Technology (someone who is a combination of a and b);
d. Cannot Utilise Normal Thinking (someone who is eccentric, but not in a good way);

Get the Americanismmug. Manna for the mindless is a disparaging description of television programmes that do no more than fill up air time. The programmes that are banal, trivial and boring and which, if they were a person, would be described as a WOFS. You know the sort of crap, pretty well all of daytime television, soap operas screened at any time, moronic game shows, chat shows featuring liggers or z-list celebrities, the list just goes on. It is the sort of programme which doesn’t require dumbing down as it is targeted at fuckwits or insomniacs who need something other than drugs to help them sleep.
Before twenty-four seven television was inflicted on a long-suffering human race, manna for the mindless was typified by film serials where the hero always overcame impossible odds to rescue the heroine from an impossible situation and the villain was always defeated. Either that or the Hollywood musical of the 1950s such as Carousel or South Pacific, total shite consisting of totally forgettable songs, stilted dialogue and a non-existent plot.
