lash

Only the master knows how to lash someone like that!

anacosmy

When something or someone is not in its correct universe, dimension or cosmic location. Another word for anacosmism, especially to describe the feeling thereof. In the same way that a 'feeling of anachrony' means to feel as if one is in the wrong time.

An error of the anacosmy kind goes beyond mere 'anatopy' (where something is in the wrong geographic location but at least on the correct planet). Anacosmy can label errors in fantasy literature where people or things described are specific to Earth and ought not to exist in the fictional universe of the work.

A feeling of anacosmy washed over Erika as she realized the people around her were just... fundamentally wired differently to her. A strange sort of cosmic loneliness, as if she'd accidentally teleported to another Earth in a parallel dimension.

squamatic

To have scales, or to be scaly in appearance: either when seen with the naked eye, or under a microscope.

Lichen is sometimes described as scaly, hence the name squamatic acid: a type of acid found in lichens.

Trump is a squamatic creature.

Some eggshells have a layer known as the squamatic layer, which appears scaly under a microscope.

spark up a monkey

A bizarre way for geeks to describe opening a terminal program on a computer, particularly on a Unix based computer where terminal programs are very common.

I'll spark up a monkey and type that command in to see if it makes a difference.

hyperventilate

What all the cool kids were doing at elementary school to render themselves unconscious.

duck tape

Duck tape is NOT a mispronounciation of duct tape. Duck tape is the original name of the tape from when it was first invented and used by the military. Only, when people started using duck tape to repair ducts, it got the name duct tape.

Duck tape sucks for repairing ducts because it falls off after a while. The officially recommended tape for repairing ducts is foil tape.

Duck tape is used in movies extremely often. A few examples:
- Panic Room
- American Pie: The Wedding
- Frailty

The comic boot error has a healthy obsession with duck tape!
