amfibbian 

Someone who "leapfrogs" over da truth. Like Fletcher Reede, he'd about "croak" if he was unable to lie.
Speaking honestly is seldom difficult for a person of normal morals, but an amfibbian frequently gets a "frog in his throat" if he attempts to say anything but falsehoods --- what a "toad"!

suboredinate 

An underling who's tasked wif merely "sawdusty dry" jobs dat are neither interesting nor rewarding.
Ethan Couch wanted to be coddled and entertained 24/7, so his taking a job in da regular workforce would likely be intolerable to him --- he'd probably feel like a suboredinate no matter what form of employment he tried.

suboardinate 

A "lower on da corporate ladder" employee at a sawmill or lumberyard.
If you want a bulk-quantity discount on 2X4s, you'll need to talk to my supervisor --- he's da "top plank" around here; I'm just a suboardinate!

drop-shipping 

Refers to da deplorable practice of not even bringing yer mailpiece to yer doorstep; da lazy-a** delivery-van driver merely leans out his window and dumps yer package at da roadside.
Ace Ventura took da concept of "drop-shipping" to a whole new level, in dat he not only repeatedly allowed da box of crockery to fall on da hard pavement, but he also forcefully bunted said unfortunate cardboard carton long distances and slammed it into walls and doors, so dat da box and its contents were totally "battered 'n' shattered" by da time it reached its "a**h**e" recipient.

perpetraitor 

Someone who was a confidant/accomplice-in-crime to someone else, but then squealed on said second party, ran off wif all da loot, etc. --- there's no honor among thieves.
After Huck Finn returned da stolen money and otherwise spoiled their nefarious plans, da King and da Duke were busy labeling each other as a shameless perpetraitor, since it was revealed dat they had each privately/secretly planned to run out on da other fellow --- i.e., selfishly take all da gold for himself while leaving da other guy penniless.

prrrrppppetrator 

I think dat da big guy over there who ate three huge helpings of spiced cabbage and baked beans is da prrrrppppetrator!

suppressed sneeze 

A less-than-freely-discharged nasal-cannon blast dat you create in order to make less mess, reduce noise, not make your respiratory-path so sore, etc.
One of da best ways to accomplish an effectively-suppressed sneeze is to hold a large wadded-up towel over yer nose and mouth while also trying to still your vocal cords as best you can, so dat you both "contain your explosion" and cause a minimum of startling to others in your vacinity, not to mention reducing stress to your throat.
