untangle-dangle

What you periodically hafta do with your handset's curly-cord to get da knots outta it --- when it gets snarled up enough, simply tugging on it just doesn't do da trick anymore... ya gotta actually unplug da cord at both ends, carefully unravel da kinks, and then suspend da cord from one end so that it can hang freely to allow it to "naturally" untwist and "equalize" itself.
Adding a swivel-adapter to your handset-cord can indeed sometimes help to reduce its getting all wrapped up around itself and save your having to perform da untangle-dangle so often, but da problem with these doodads is dat dey tend to not have very good swivel-contacts, and so you soon get a lot of static and intermittent sound. Plus da cheaper units tend to not swivel very easily, and so you gotta keep spraying them wif WD-40 to keep them twisting around freely.

Seeing a succession of elongated underwater mounds containing many pottery jars just off da island of Crete, Jacques Cousteau realized dat a massive tidal wave from an ancient volcanic eruption may have caused a sinkronization, and dat said parallel rows had likely been formed by da rotted-away hulls of loaded merchant-vessels.

"add to dictionary" abuse

Refers to where you impatiently/imperiously refuse to correct your spelling-mistakes when composing text on on a word-processor, but instead just click "add to dictionary" for each error to make said pesky intervals of squiggly red underlinings disappear.
Not only does "add to dictionary" abuse result in your literary compositions' remaining full of mistakes, but it also potentially harms the next person who attempts to use said word-processor, since your spell-checker will now not "catch" many misspellings that this subsequent typist may make, and thus he may unwittingly not do a proper job of proofreading his letters and memos, either.

RAMifications

Da overall effects of having more or less data-storage on your computer.
Bill Gates supposedly said in 1981 dat "640K should be enough for anybody", but he claims dat he never made dat ridiculous statement --- he says dat he totally knew da RAMifications of having too little computer-memory, and so he actually was always saying da exact opposite.
