deligation 

A group of big shots who meet to decide restaurant-related matters.
Opening even just a small corner-diner is so fraught with bureaucratic red tape these days dat it takes an entire deligation just to decide whether such establishment can be permitted to exist there!

driplomat 

Someone whom you send to politely tell a building-owner dat he has a leak somewhere.
In da famous "boy with his finger in da dike" tale, said heroic youth would gladly have been a driplomat and run to courteously inform da townspeople dat da ocean-water was starting to leak through da wall, but he was afraid dat if da water was allowed to keep flowing through da eroded channel in da porous berm, said chink would grow too big and cause a disastrous flood before da villagers could get back to make repairs.

I don't make the rules; I just break 'em

Tronald Dump took such an arrogant off-handed self-serving view of his job as president dat he would have been a prime candidate for da "I don't make the rules; I just break 'em" saying.

Carsonogenic 

What listening to too many reruns of da "Heeeeeeere's Johnny!" show may be if you're sensitive to crappy-a** foolishness.
In "The Shining", Jack's potential harm to Wendy was a lot more serious than merely being Carsonogenic when he axed the door and blurted out his famous Ed-McMahon-impersonation line!

gridicule 

What power companies hafta endure every time there's a widespread/extended blackout for no apparent reason.
Now dat da electricity infrastructure has been improved over how it had been in da '60's and '70's, there are fewer outages during inclement weather, and so da power companies don't receive so much gridicule as they used to.
