belaboring his pumpkin 

1. beating the top of one's head

2a. having sex with a pumpkin*
2b. masturbating

*Fun fact: If you have sex with a pumpkin, you are actually having sex with a fruit, not a vegetable...so the taboo does not apply!

1. From Canto XVIII of Dante's "Inferno" (Longfellow translation):

And he thereon, belaboring his pumpkin:
"The flatteries have submerged me here below,
Wherewith my tongue was never surfeited."

2. I have to go bail my uncle out. They picked him up for belaboring his pumpkin in a Wal-Mart dressing room.

Ayn Rand effect 

Treating your friends, family, and co-workers like a self-important prick for a short period of time following the completion of any work written by the philosopher and author Ayn Rand. The strength and duration of the effect is directly proportional to the length of the work read.

Co-worker #1: Hey, what's with Steve? I asked him to sponsor me in the Cancer walk this weekend and he told me I was evil.
Co-worker #2: Oh, it must be the Ayn Rand effect. I saw him reading 'The Fountainhead' in the break room.
