NTSWTSA

Da group of lazy/careless/incompetent "ntwts" who foot-draggingly create safety standards and recommendations, usually only after one or more huge safety-scandals, like da Titanic or Tenerife disasters.
If da NTSWTSA were doing a better job of maintaining and improving safety in da word's industrial and transportation systems, far fewer huge human-error-based catastrophes would likely have occurred.

Nome Chompsky

An expert linguist from Alaska who helps Eskimos speak clearly even while chewing hunks of whale-blubber.
Nome Chompsky: Eskimos live on whale meat and blubber.
Unimpressed/bored English student: Well, of COURSE they do --- you'd cry, too, if you only had whale-meat to eat!

Veniceon

Deer-meat packaged by one or more abattoir-outfits in the Italian "city of water".
Italy is known world-wide for its exquisite cuisine, so I wonder if Veniceon would have a uniquely-superior flavor and texture, as well?

silver bullet holes

What da Lone Ranger produces from plinking Coors Light cans for target-practice.
As costly as pure silver is nowadays, I'd imagine dat Tonto's "knight on a white horse" crimefighter-companion would use just regular lead-tipped cartridges when merely keeping his aim sharp; his successful hits would still produce "silver bullet holes" in dat they would make piercings in da shiny mirror-finished beer-pints just as well as his "for gunfights only" projectiles would have.

vetoo

Da rejection of a proposed measure regarding obsolete missile-technology.
If Da Great Adolf had chosen to perform a vetoo instead of an approval, a lot of widespread destruction might have been averted.

pre-cough swallow

Refers to where you feel a cough coming on while your mouth is full of food/drink, and so you hastily down the entire mouthful so that your mouth and throat will be free to expel the cough "cleanly", rather than there being a humongous "geyser" of messy stuff to go flying all over the place and disgustingly splattering everything within a several-foot radius.
I'd just swallowed a big bite of spicy-hot chili and was in the process of washing it down with a swig of cold milk when I felt an overpowering urge to choke, so I did a hasty pre-cough swallow to avoid a spluttery shower of tomato-tinted milk all over my new tablecloth.

pairent

An adult who's raising one or more of his children just on his own, while also trying to assume both a motherly and fatherly role to give said offspring a more "balanced" upbringing.
Reading child-rearing advice-books aimed at both male and female audiences can help you become a better pairent.
