dyslexiea 

Communication-confusion when in da company of anyone named Lexie.
Because he wasn't overly comfortable dealing with children, Alan Grant encountered a major bout of tongue-tied dyslexiea when he was obliged to share a seat in da Jurassic Park jeep with John Hammond's naively-beaming young granddaughter.

YouTube crosstalk 

Refers to an unwanted "spilling over" of sound between two different YouTube contributors who are each making separate videos in fairly-close proximity to each other, and thus da mike on Person A's camera "overhears" da words from Person's B's spoken commentary, and vise-versa.
If two people want to collaborate on da making of a video --- i.e., combine da best footage-clips from their individual cameras post-production into one complete "from two different vantage-points" documentary --- they should try to film from locales out-of-earshot from each other in order to avoid YouTube crosstalk.

Ayatollah already

What Khomeini would say if you asked him the same question twice.
Carter: Will you release the hostages?
Kholmeini: The only way I'll release them is if YOU agree to ALL of OUR demands --- period.
Carter: So you won't consider releasing them just on your own?
Kholmeini: Ayatollah already --- YOU have to give US what WE want first!

eggsigent circumstances 

An "emergency situation" dat involves your having a dozen-carton of stale cackleberries in yer possession, and so da cops think dat you might be gonna throw rotten eggs at them.
At da King and Duke's third "dramatic performance" show in da same town, Huckleberry Finn saw dat da audience-members were smuggling in assorted "ripe" organic-missile weaponry; this realization convinced da Duke dat there were eggsigent circumstances which justified their sneaking off and hightailing it for da river.

wheat-and-rye-bread sandwich-hand-clasp 

Refers to where two mushy-hearted guys wif "different-but-delightful" personalities tenderly cradle a cute chick's ten slender digits between each of theirs at da same time --- i.e., one nice fellow affectionately interlaces his fingers palm-to-palm wif da girl's, and then da other pleasant-mannered dude lays his own hands against da backs of said sweet blinky-eyed damsel's hands and softly folds his own fingers into da mix, as well. Extra points if said two gentle-natured male admirers "split da softness" --- i.e., rather than one fellow's "hogging" both of da girl's warm velvety palms so dat da other guy only gets to touch da backs of her hands, each dude takes one palm and one back of da girl's hands when initially grasping them, so dat both guys get an equal share of "palming" and "spooning".
Employing da wheat-and-rye-bread sandwich-hand-clasp is indeed super-pleasant and satisfying, but you can get even more creative than that... why not try da "poppy-seed-bun hand-clasp" --- i.e., where ya share da girl's hands wif a freckled dude --- or a "wheat-and-Pumpernickel-bread sandwich-hand-clasp", which involves letting an African-American hunk share a little squeezy fingers-'n'-palms fun wif said smiling sweetie-pie, also.

reverse-invitation

An elegant "RSVP" card dat asks you NOT to attend some fancy-pants shindig.
If they'd known he'd been planning to cacophonously crash their "perfectly-planned day", Cassandra Wong's folks would likely have sent Wayne Campbell a reverse-invitation to said wedding-service!
