seenery

Nature views dat are "old hat" to da observer, instead of being something new and exciting.
Da tour guide promised us tons of "fresh vistas", but it turned out to be just "seenery" --- i.e., merely a "re-run" of places dat we'd already been to earlier on dat same trip!

computer cussin'

As in, ya either swear BY them, or ya swear AT them. :P
My checkout-clerk friend at Walmart admitted that her cantankerous cash-register was certainly a pain in the you-know-what on frequent occasions, and so it might indeed tempt its operators to indulge in a little computer cussin' once in a while.

A household spirit dat voraciously devours all da edibles it can find.
Little Johnny's mom caught him with his hand in da cookie jar, so he couldn't use da hobgobblin excuse as to why da cookies were disappearing. :P

quituation

Tronald Dump was such an intolerably-obnoxious manager dat he often faced aggravating quituations throughout his assorted debauched business ventures.

abuse tax

A tariff we pay to the State or Federal government to recompense them for abusing us.
I can at least partially understand levying an abuse tax on truly "optional" abuse-items like tobacco or alcohol, but why charge it on gasoline? That's a necessary commodity to merely get around, and besides, it's not as if we aren't TRYING to use other fuels and/or forms of motive-power --- many people are trying to promote "green" forms of transportation like bicycles, electric vehicles, ethanol, etc., but the powers-that-be are actively squelching the development of such technology. Why, even GM itself crushed its own EV1 electric cars that people ALREADY WERE USING AND LOVED... what kinda convoluted nonsense does THAT make??!?!

"escape hatch" sneeze

Refers to a humongous "ah-choo!" that you consciously "divert" or "re-direct" the air-blast force of through your throat and out your mouth --- rather than letting it travel its "standard" path through your sinuses and out your nose --- thereby reducing the risk of a "wet 'n' messy" spray from your nostrils. Of course, you should still always cover your nose and mouth to minimize germy emanations in any case.
Performing the "escape hatch" sneeze can indeed often allow for cleaner nasal-cannon discharging, but it can also lead to hoarseness and a painful throat if excessively utilized in a fairly short period of time.

sirveillance

Da act of keeping an eye on one or more male humans.
Tammy Wynette famously advocated "standing by your man" --- does dat include da lady's conducting sirveillance to see if her man is also faithfully "standing by" her, or if he's secretly "getting a little on da side"??
