SickaDoodles 

The ultimate and final-straw mixed breed dog.
"Oh, what aDORable puppies!"

"Aren't they?! We got them from the world's only breeder, in Baise-mon-Cul, Quebec. Twelve year waiting list, and you don't want to know what they cost. But. These dogs rank number one in temperament, intelligence, musical aptitude and table manners, superior to every other breed recognized by the AKC. Superb with kids, cats and tout les chien avec d'argent."

"That's so charming! And they're... no, please, let me guess. Umm... SickaDoodles! Am I right?! Totally SickaDoodles."

Jiminy Crockett, Prince of the Wild Frontier 

A secret project in development at the Walt Disney studio in the fall of 1956, following their massively successful Davy Crockett series. Drawn by animator Ward Kimball, sketches show Jiminy Cricket, featured in the 1940 film Pinocchio, in an oversized and skewed coonskin hat instead of his top hat, wearing a buckskin jacket and carrying a rifle in place of his umbrella.
Jiminy Crockett, Prince of the Wild Frontier, was a concept that refused to hop off the drawing board.

flat tire-dness 

A state of fatigue so terminal that you cannot roll another foot, having all the shapely utility, bounce and style of a flat tire, the air completely taken out of you.
Another day, after another sleepless night, feeling so deflated that no air hose, pressure gauge or patch could address his flat tire-dness. Yet he'd get through it, for sure, he'd do everything needed of him, as he's done yesterday, and the day before, and the... day...... before........... huh?! Me?? Yeah, no, I'm awake! Just turn the key, give it a little gas... sure, let's go.

A.I.2 Artificial Ignorance

The black sheep sibling of Artificial Intelligence, promiscuously spreading misinformation and calumny which can never be corrected, denied or retrieved, set in digital stone.
Although Jack was happily attached and leading a blameless life, he awakened one morning to the news that he was on Tinder, listed with a gender identity and sexual preference he had never actually heard of, was the target of several concurrently pending lawsuits, had been arrested for bestiality at the age of twelve, failed in his fifth attempt at getting a GED, declared bankruptcy twice, and, perhaps the greatest insult, had appended to his profile an unflattering photo of someone else with his exact name. All of this was out there forever. Forever, and it was sure to spread. There was no one to complain to. Nobody. Welcome to the age of A.I.2 Artificial Ignorance.

experimentally ill 

The state of craziness in someone who has abandoned their guardrails, willing to give anything and everything a try in a desperate bid for attention, changing pronouns before reconstructive facial and genital surgery has started, ingesting any illicit substance in a quest for near-death - say, taking the one-chip challenge three times consecutively - risking it all for a tiktok video, claiming enlightenment and liberty by daylight, shaking with fear in the dark.
"Have you seen the person formerly known as Bob?"
"You mean Countess Madge, aka Tongue-Ripper-Tony? I caught his/her/their 'Travel Guide to Swimming Sewer-Gator Canal with CC' this morning."
"Wudja think?"
"Oh, they've gone full-on experimentally ill, which'll last right up till the parents subscribe to their feed.

I can't do two things at once 

A fact known to all men and universally discredited by women.
"The dog needs to go out, right away" she said, as he was balancing on the top of rung the ladder, not only changing the bulb but cradling the fragile glass globe. "And please take the towels out of the dryer, before they start to smell moldy."

"I can't do two things at once" he replied, but she could not hear him, polishing her nails, talking to her mother on the phone and finalizing the Etsy order for Kleenex box holders, reminding him... "I need you to tell me which of these patterns you prefer".
You've seen him; the guy who unknowingly manifests the style and philosophy of The Dude, played by Jeff Bridges in the Coen brothers' 1998 film, "The Big Lebowski".
"Check out the Lebowsker."
"Wayfarers, bowling shirt, several years late for work?"
"Certain things have come to light, man."
"
