homeoveniroscopophobia

Morbid and (possibly) irrational fear that if you do the same thing every day the CIA may decide to keep a close eye on you.

Homeoveniroscopophobia. Possibly a good reason to be more adventurous.

silicon carne

Cyberporn. Pun on (hot-flavoured) chili con carne (chili with meat) and the silicon in the chips in your computer.

I surfed the web for the sites my friends from school had set up two or three years before and found myself looking at more and more silicon carne instead.

Mr. Natural

Long-bearded earthy worldly wise simple genius invented by cartoonist R. Crumb. The only man in history (according to one cartoon) to get a new lease on life when, once he had died, God asked him what he thought of Paradise and his scrupulously honest aesthetic appraisal of the whole place pissed off the Big Man big time. Best known for such catch phrases as "Keep Truckin'".

Mr. Natural, the coolest beardy dude in history, even makes sandals look good.

now a minor motion picture

Now a minor motion picture: a blurb I have yet to see on a book cover. Have you?

How to Rationalise Telling Sam She was Akin to a Dead Mouse in a Latrine in Swahili, by R.A.K. Martin-Smythe. Now a minor motion picture from the Confrere Brothers.

mention Voldemort

To say something not meant to be said in polite company, thereby committing a serious faux pas. To say something politically incorrect. From the arch-villain of the Harry Potter series, whose name is not supposed to be mentioned in civil wizarding company.

I was only talking about how we need animal protein in our meals ... did I mention Voldemort there?

moulin rouge

Excruciating shite by Baz Luhrmann. Ought to be covered by the Geneva Convention.
