halternative

A type of device or method for managing a horse other than a leather-straps-type attachment dat's fitted to its head.

kissmet

1. Fate or destiny caused or originated by a smooch.
2. A term describing how two people became acquainted with each other through fate or destiny, and largely due to their having locked lips at some point.

After George McFly succeeded in knocking out Biff Tannen in the Hill Valley High School parking lot and thus showed Lorraine Baines that he was a worthy partner after all, the two teenagers finally hooked up when they shared their first passionate smooch on the dance-floor during the Enchantment Under The Sea party; they later agreed that their meeting was kissmet.

substandard

Less-than-satisfactory bass-output of your separately-amplified table-style woofer.

If you develop hearing-loss from playing your "music" (i.e., it's debatable whether that horrible crash-'n'-bash thumpy-thump cacophony truly qualifies as actual music!) too loud, then ANY audio-system will likely sound substandard to you.

clustermers

A small crowd of people who enter a store as a group.

Having clustermers come in can be a store-owner's dream-come-true if each of the members of the group buys a few items, but it can also be a nightmare if they all just want to use the restrooms.
