macademia nut

A college student/graduate wif a hard tough "shell" dat is difficult to "crack" --- i.e., he is so "rigidly wrapped up" in his dusty boring books dat he cannot effectively interface wif da common man.

Faust was famously suffering from being a major macademia nut --- he'd learned a lot about a variety of literary subjects, but he didn't know da simple nuances of life, such as how to have fun or da ways of effectively communicating with people.

refurral

A "sending this person your way for better results" recommendation regarding someone who is good at rolling up flags.

After I volunteered to help a local-business-owner friend to take down and neatly stow da outdoor decorations at a big open-house shindig dat he'd hosted earlier in da day, he gave everyone else in town a refurral to me as someone who was diligently careful and tidy about removing colorful wind-flapper fabrics and packing them away, and so I got calls practically 24/7 from these other folks, requesting me to go and roll up their banners, as well!

pasturized milk

The sweet liquid-byproduct of free-range grass-fed cows.

Since free-range cows naturally produce pasturized milk, there is no need to heat it; you can safely just drink it "just as it came out of Bossie" --- it tastes infinitely better raw, anyway.

hopsital

1. A medical center for rabbits and kangaroos.
2. A treatment-facility where they administer bitters for medicinal purposes.

A hopsital can also refer to a "hippie health foods" establishment where they get you to jump/leap around wildly in an effort to "cure what ails you" and/or otherwise improve your overall well-being. May or may not be effective, but hey --- who am I to say a word against highly-unorthodox procedures such as this? Far-more-oddball regimens have indeed been proven effective sometimes; in this case, though, I just can't help thinking that if said "patients" are actually fit and agile enough to go limberly bouncing about for extended periods, perhaps they are not really all that ill to begin with, and so they should just go back home and resume their normal lives "just as they are".

passistance

Someone who helps a fellow human to successfully decline to participate in something, move ahead of another vehicle, put the moves on a romantic interest, etc.

One good way to provide passistance on a highway is to point out to the driver in front that the person behind him wants to get by, usually the reason that the impatient driver needs help is that the slowpoke in front is not aware that he is holding someone up.

betrail

A "getting busted/screwed" situation involving either a hiking-path or a succession of objects in a line.

While participating in a group-stroll through da forest, I scurried on ahead wif a cute member of da party till she and I were out of sight of da others, and then we stepped off da footpath and hastily threw off our clothing as we hurried towards a patch of soft comfy green moss dat we'd spied deeper in da woods, to flop down and partake of a quick bouncy-bouncy. What we didn't realize in da heat of da moment was dat one end of da long line of our assorted garments was still visible from da walking-path dat we'd just left, and thus was spotted by da other hikers as they passed by --- talk about a "double betrail"!
