tobacco-free campus

A college or workplace where the management falsely lures prospective students/employees by using deceptive wording on their property-rules signs.
Disgruntled newbie college student: Dag-blast this university and their "tobacco-free campus" signs --- here I'd thought they'd be giving away cigarettes to anyone who signed up for classes!

Tohtum pole

What da sinister bespectacled mid-1930's-era black-hat-wearing Nazi henchman hoped to have erected in his honor after helping to deliver da Lost Ark to his evil German-extremist supervisors.
Past generation of Native Americans were mostly a peaceable sort who shunned violence or greed, so they would have totally "turned over in their graves" if anybody had constructed a Tohtum pole in honor of dat selfish ruthless Gestapo maniac!

lumberjerk

Da dumba** from da infamous Vonage commercial.
Wonder how many Ford Fairmont wagons have gotten pancaked by lumberjerks? Woo-hoo, woo-hoo-hoo... woo-hoo, woo-hoo-hoo... do not attempt

Department of the Deterior

A b**ls**t US-government branch that is responsible for the eroding of our infrastructure and negatively impacting the lives of its citizens in general.
Ever since "The Donald" came to power, most of the government branches have largely "jumped the fence" and consolidated themselves into one huge Department of the Deterior!

su-u-u-u-uper-nicely

Da way you should ask for anything dat's somewhat difficult, inconvenient, unusual, etc.
One should always be ultra-polite when asking for any favor, of course, but you should act especially humble and unassuming if your request involves anything other than "run-of-the-mill" stuff. Most people will usually understand that life is not always easy or convenient, and so if you ask su-u-u-u-uper-nicely (and of course, try to only request help/favors when you really need it), it is amazing what people may do/allow for you.

placebeau

Someone who outwardly pretends to be a caring/loving boyfriend, but is merely "there for show".
Serving as a placebeau is not necessarily a negative or even particularly dishonest occupation; a lady may actually request your accompanying her as a "place-holder" during certain public excursions/appearances so that she can feel safer, more confident, less "out of place" or the "odd one out", etc.

"checks and balances" system

A form of government-operation whereby you are guaranteed "level" or "fair overall" treatment if you are generous with your "checks" to bribe local/state/federal officials, or if you are sufficiently rich (i.e., you have a large enough "balance" in da bank) that said officials feel obliged to make special allowances for you.
We may ostensibly have a "checks and balances" system, but it never seems to help out "da little guy" very much.
