cusstom
Da local standard or accepted norm regarding profanity. Da funny story about the little girl helping the construction-workers build a house next door is a prime example of this.
I love horses and I detest "salty" language, so I enjoy visiting my Amish friends on both accounts... they give me "free rein" (pun intended!) of their barns and fields to go and pet their large glossy-maned work-buddies all I want, and they always speak civilly to me because they have a strict zero-tolerance cusstom.
citation-spelling nightmare
What a member of da "area's finest" --- especially one who never did too well in grammar-school --- finds himself faced with when trying to scribble out a summons-to-appear slip involving people/objects/locales with less-than-common names.
News flash --- Flustered MPs at da local naval-base encountered a major citation-spelling nightmare this evening when trying to write up a PECCARY who had committed da PECCADILLO of illegally entering da ARMORY and engaging in a PECKADILLO with an ARMADILLO dat it met there.

eggnoggin
Da headachy fuzzy-brained feeling dat you wake up with after an evening of gluttonously guzzling "thickened flavored milk" Christmas-cordial. Said painful woozy hangover can occur even if said super-rich liquid-libation isn't of the "spiked" variety, since each sip packs so many calories and carbs.
dustination
Can refer to either:
(1) Da wastebasket where you periodically dump yer loaded debris-scoop while sweeping up.
(2) Wherever famed actor Hoffman is heading towards at any given time.

I do indeed appreciate my physically-inform buddy's offer to help me tidy up, but da prob is dat he isn't very steady on his feet or able to keep a proper grip on da pan when carrying it to da waste-bin, and so he usually spills some of its contents before he reaches his dustination.

wed-betting
Wagering on how long a newly-hitched couple is gonna stay married. Besides potentially being a significant drain on your financial resources, this unhealthy gambling practice can also reduce bladder-control while you're asleep.
Marriage is a very uncertain thing, so one would have no guarantee of coming out ahead with wed-betting. If it is difficult to resist the temptation just on its own, however, perhaps the prospect of having smelly dampened sheets and blankets could be emporium of a "supplementary" deterrent to prevent you from caving.

horsiz optional
What you eye-twinklingly add as a hasty "aside" after saying "hey" to someone, before they can impishly shoot back with da "standard" retort of "Hey iz fer horsiz".
I would sincerely hope dat it would be "horsiz optional" instead of "mandatory" when saying "hey" to someone... not dat I don't totally love those large gorgeous friendly four-legged mammals, but I wouldn't wanna hafta care for a whole herd of dem.

peckadillo
Da "social no-so" act of planting quick casual kisses on da cheeks of random people. You might get away with it more in the Italian Quarter, though, since this is the traditional "modern Latin" way of greeting each other.
Though considered relatively minor in the eyes of Johnny Law, committing a peckadillo still carries a stiffer penalty than an "armadillo", since passing out uninhibited smooches is considered more violating of personal-boundaries than simply hugging everyone you meet.
