acquaintance of Dorothy
A "secret code" phrase to mean that --- while you are not of alternative orientation yourself --- you are at least "neutral and tolerant" in your views/feelings regarding other-than-straight individuals, and so anyone within earshot knows that he can feel comfy and secure around you, no matter what type of human he identifies himself as.
Jerry Dean Michael (a.k.a., "Elizabeth Carmichael", the infamous proponent of the equally-infamous "Dale" automobile) might have been able to label himself as a "friend of Dorothy" back in the beginning, but after he swindled so many people out of their life savings in their eager bids to acquire one of his non-existent fuel-miser automobiles, he could probably only have claimed to be an "acquaintance of Dorothy", since neither the Kansas girl or anyone else would likely have wanted to be HIS "friend" anymore!

c-weed
Not to be confused with "ocean vegetation", this is a code-word for marijuana --- i.e., "c" weed, with "c" standing for "cannabis".
It's widely known that many commercial fishermen bring in "something other than fish" during many of their offshore hauls; to both avoid arousing suspicion among the authorities AND secretly convey to their cohorts that they "have the goods", they claim to be hauling "c-weed" as a side-business to their regular Pisces/crustacean-based harvesting.
enroneous
Describes da untrue nature of da tongue-in-cheek "cell phone static" joke regarding da infamous Kenneth-Lay-founded mega-biz establishment in Texas.
Da preposterous "Cell phone static made da honest-and-honorable directive, 'Ship da documents to da Feds' sound like, 'Rip da documents to shreds'" theory was completely enroneous --- da company's corrupt officials did indeed destroy massive amounts of evidence, plain and simple.
catch-phrase
Da theory of a perfect "catch-phrase" is largely non-existent, since (A) everyone is different, and so an approach dat might be attractive/alluring to one person might not work for someone else, and (B) many folks prefer dat you just "be yourself", and so a "canned come-on" would likely be largely ineffective for them, since they would want to know how you truly think/feel, not merely how well-read you are in da art of "making friends and influencing people".

idiosinkrasy
A unique character-trait dat relates to either da wash/drain-pan in yer kitchen/bathroom, or something's not floating.
Due to my buddy's idiosinkrasy, he forgot to check da hull-seams on our rowboat before setting said small craft in da water, and so he didn't notice dat da caulking was in urgent need to touching up; we hadda delay our fishing-trip for a few days to make repairs after said leaky punt caused us both to embarrassingly end up in da drink before we'd even gotten ten feet from da dock!
