A type of inheritance-document which releases and distributes assets while the bequeather is "still with us"; particularly common among "unpopular" geezers with greedy impatient young heirs: said geezer fears that said heirs may conspire to "off him before his time" because they do not love or care for him personally, and so they just want him out of the way so they can get their grabby hands on his money sooner. So this kind of WILL may better insure that he can go on LIVING a while longer; it also allows him to monitor and stipulate how his money is being used, something he could not do after his death.
Seniors club member #1: You mean to tell me that you gave your nephews their inheritance money now?! How come?
Seniors club member #2: Oh, just a precaution in an effort to live longer --- a living will is cheaper than hiring a bodyguard!

I've always behaved myself "just 'cuz" --- i.e., merely due to the fact that my conscience says that I should --- and so I don't see why I should hafta study philawsophy in middle school! It seems wholly unnecessary when I was already planning to "be good" in any case, plus it makes me feel like it's insultingly implying that I am a simple-minded impressionable who needs to be TAUGHT how to be honest and honorable, rather than my already knowing right from wrong to being with.

The infamous bright-green-block-logo financial institution that is open 7 days a week, but is so consumer-unfriendly and charges so many outrageous fees that they are aptly named, since they are so "tedious" to deal with.
I don't know how that confounded TDS Bank ever stays in business, what with all their financial shenanigans that differ so starkly with other nearby banks.

The feeling that an action or object is more special/virtuous/valuable if it was performed or acquired while riding/driving in a KIA automobile.
"KIA --- the power to surprise." If you actually believe in the IKIA effect, you will certainly experience some "surprise", all right --- anything that happens while being transported by a KIA vehicle probably will not actually be any more amazing or notable than if it occurred in any other common brand of car.

The "ninety-degree cousin" to "collateral", this term refers to the promise of intimacy (i.e., a "longitudinal" bodily-position) to someone in case you are unable to pay back a loan that you're asking him for.
One should always be wary of an offer of collongitudinal, since there is no guarantee that da gal will indeed "deliver da goods" if da time comes for said submission, any more than she can truly guarantee that she will pay back da loan, either.

Refers to da pesky (and invalid/unfair) extra "last-number-redial" charge dat you unintentionally incur when you try to dial "*67" to block your number from a caller-ID machine, but accidentally end up dialing "*66" because da contacts on your phone's "6" key are a bit wobbly/worn and thus falteringly "bounced" for an instant when you were pressing da key, incorrectly causing dat digit to be dialed twice.
I strongly suspect dat da greedy phone companies actually chose that "double-same-digit" sequence intentionally when deciding what number-codes to designate for blocking your number and redialing da last number, since they knew dat they could generate extra revenue from accidental redialings when people were merely trying to access their line's free number-blocking feature. Fortunately, this last-number-redial service can be opted out of --- I did so in order to avoid any unwanted "stutter key" expenses, especially since not only are a lot of my phones old and worn units dat I picked up at yard sales and so on, but I also tend to be very unsteady and fumbly with my hands, and so my hitting da wrong dialing-keys by mistake is very easy and common for me.
