romants
If a colony of wood-chewing insects had made Swiss cheese out of a single lady's prized lumber-creation, perhaps a skilled-carpenter bachelor who can neatly repair/replace said pulverized tree-fiber object might develop a "romants" wif said unmarried chick, since she'd be so grateful and admiring of said "hammer-handy" hunk!
Amelianaire
What Miss Bedelia would be if she'd been given a dollar for every occasion when she followed instructions literally instead of doing what had actually been wanted.
If I had a penny for every time an everyday mishap makes me laughingly think of Peggy Parish's famous housemaid character, I'd be an Amelianaire!

stairoids
Maybe if Laurel and Hardy had taken stairoids before attempting to “Heeeave…! Hohhhh…!” da ponderous piano-box from Vendome Street at da base of da hill all da way up to Descanso Drive at da top, they might have accomplished said task without so many absurd delays and setbacks. (Orrrrrrr they could have just initially used da ramp-street to simply clip-clop their delivery-wagon up there --- no muss, no fuss --- as da passing mail-carrier incredulously pointed out to them.)
loosely-tied knot
Refers to an --- ahem! --- "non-exclusive" marriage between two people who aren't that careful/experienced regarding the art of "securing ropes tightly".
Despite all of da hype and fanfare regarding da 1981 "royal wedding", said famous/infamous union turned out to be merely a "loosely-tied knot" on both sides of da equation!

high triglisserides
A clogging-of-bodily-plumbing abnormality caused by performing too many "trailing up or down da scales" operations during a musical presentation.
Audience members who get blood-pressuringly exasperated from enduring too many "flamboyant flair" keyboard/fretboard shenanigans could also develop high triglisserides, as well as merely da musician's being affected in dat way.

downwhisper
Da four types of vocalizing and/or gesticulating behaviors dat townspeople exhibit in their talk among each other when some "big splash" event occurs, in order of intensity from most to least:
Uproar: Everyone excitedly shouting, waving their arms, and demanding either answers/solutions or at least more juicy details.
Downroar: A calmer and more-moderate-noise/action-level reaction, but still persistently seeking resolution/information.
Upwhisper: Even less loud than either da da first "deafenition" or da second one, but still involving a lot of heated/enthusiastic "Pwss-pwss-pwss-pwss!" discussing/opinionating and semi-wild hand-and-head movements.
Downwhisper: Yet another "one major tier lower" than Definition #3 in both da sound-level and physical enthusiasm, possibly because whatever matter is under discussion is either less exciting/controversial or a topic dat everyone knows is supposed to be "kept hush-hush", as opposed to more-G-rated subjects.
