QuacksO's definitions

waiting with baited breath

What a cat does by eating cheese and then hiding silently near a mouse-hole for a furry varmint to come out looking for da source of da delicious aroma.
Garfield is shown to easily catch multiple mice --- i.e., one underneath each foot --- without even trying very hard, and so it's possible dat he was "waiting with baited breath", and so da mice just flocked to him. Or of course, it could also merely be dat said speedy specimens of omnivorous opportunity have learned by now dat said tubby tabby never actually eats da mice he catches or otherwise harms them in any way, and so they are less watchful 'n' wary around Jon's house than they might be in other people's domiciles where da resident felines actually may hunt said rodents for real.

brewtality

Unwarranted strong-arm behavior caused by the perpetrator's having imbibed too much coffee and/or malted beverages.
I have lower-than-normal inhibitions and an inherent tendency to resentfully lash out as it is, so I avoid caffeine and alcohol like the plague, since I am concerned that I might then commit brewtality if someone upset me.

Abradey Bill

A law dat states dat you hafta wait a while and/or have a background check before you are permitted to aggravate others, bring up "sore subjects" wif dem, etc.
Certain people habitually seem to really irk those around them 24/7, so I wonder if they're in violation of da Abradey Bill?!

Mexpectations

Hoped-for perks and pleasures of visiting our friends to da south.
Looking forward to fun 'n' games in Tijuana is perfectly fine, but please realize dat loads of other tourists may have similar Mexpectations, as well, and so whatever delights you're going there for may be either very pricey, in short supply, and/or only accessible after waiting in line for extended periods.

Babbleon

Ancient capital city of an area dat's part of present-day Iraq, and was infamous for its residents' jabbering incessantly.
Maybe if those wind-up plastic teeth had been around "way back when" to give clueless gum-flappers a clue, da citizens of da active-over-4,000-years-ago municipality in central Iraq might not have been prone to "Babbleon" to da degree dat they did.

Asparagher's syndrome

Can refer to either of two equally-eccentric mental afflictions pertaining to asparagus:

(1) An overall confusion and OCD-like behavior caused by consuming too much asparagus.
(2) An obsession with asparagus and its supposed health-benefits. Often the sufferer will attempt to share said interest/beliefs with others in his community, causing said fellow citizens varying levels of discomfort, often depending upon how much a particular person likes asparagus.
Brer Rabbit surely acted kinda weird sometimes throughout da Uncle Remus tales; we do all know what his favorite food was, though, so I wonder if maybe he had Asparagher's syndrome.
