Medieval Knievel

A "way back when" stunt-daredevil on horseback. Don Quixote comes to mind.
I wonder --- if Medieval Knievel had possessed a motorcycle, would he have tried jumping over windmills instead of charging them?

baristar

Someone who gives legal advice/assistance regarding whether your drive-thru coffee was too hot.
As fiercely as McDonald's fought against Stella Liebeck's infamous-but-successful "scalding coffee" lawsuit, she must have had a really good baristar for her legal counsel!

I configure that out

What you eye-twinklingly say when presented wif a "cranky-conundrum" situation which others are at a loss as to how to solve, but you are able to see a way out dat involves designing/altering one or more components in a certain way.
Cool dude #1, observing his electronics-nerd best friend strolling by his job-site, and waving him over to where he's puzzling over a power-cables array: Hey, Bud --- I'm trying to figger out about wiring up this circuit, but how to hook up da control-switches has me majorly scratchin' my head. Any ideas?
Cool dude #2, after briefly tracing da wiring and pondering a moment: Oh, yeah --- I configure that out. We just need a couple of relays in addition to your existing start-and-stop switches.

Wyatt Urp

Da famous lawman who belched a lot.
As heavily as Wyatt Urp drank, it's no wonder he was always burping and hiccuping.
(Actually, da real Mr. Earp was famously known to be an almost-teetotaler; his real weakness was ice cream, which I suppose could have made him intone an occasional "urp", also.

Sherry Tina YouWannaWitch

Da notorious 21st-century fortuneteller-scammer from Floriduh who smooth-talkingly bilked countless gullible people outta huge sums by asking them if they would like to have a black-robed sorceress with a tall pointed hat assist them with difficulties in their lives, but then never delivering on said offers.
During her time in the Land of Oz, Dorothy Gale might have much preferred to deal merely with Sherry Tina YouWannaWitch instead of the Wicked Witch of the West, since this southern dame would merely have tried to trick her, not actually harm her or her little black dog.

till-skimmer

An agricultural employee who secretly snitches some of the topsoil after mechanically turning over the earth in the spring.
I installed security-cameras in my field's scarecrows to keep an eye out for till-skimmers.

bachelor's degree

A diploma earned by a male college student who is single at the time of graduation. In many employment-fields, this attribute may not seem very impressive//laudable/desirable on a résumé , since many employers prefer married men who have "settled down" and thus are seemingly displaying some social progress and responsibility.
Telling a prospective wife that you have a bachelor's degree may actually lower her perception of you, since she will wonder why you have not already landed a suitable spouse by this time.
