Someone who "leapfrogs" over da truth. Like Fletcher Reede, he'd about "croak" if he was unable to lie.
Speaking honestly is seldom difficult for a person of normal morals, but an amfibbian frequently gets a "frog in his throat" if he attempts to say anything but falsehoods --- what a "toad"!

Denotes the disgustingly vacillating and wishy-washy opinions/voting records that many Congressman possess; their official stances on issues will ALTERNATE wildly back and forth, depending on the CURRENT political "wind direction".
Annoyed citizen: Zheeeeeeeeeeesh... those Washington AC politicians are SO unpredictable --- they're always ALTERNATING their purported positions to please their financial backers!

A severe stiffening/cramping of the joints/muscles suffered by people who attach hoisting-cables for the huge timbers that are used to build old-fashioned post-and-beam ("mortise-and-tenon") structures.
I overdid it while helping my Amish friends do a barn-raising yesterday, and now I have rigger mortise.

Someone who constantly attempts to minimize the cost of sending his outgoing mail, perhaps even resorting to dishonest/advantage-taking measures to save even more.
One of the most effective ways to be a postage-pinchpenny is to simply "reverse the charges" --- i.e., write your mail-piece's recipient's name and address in the space where its sender's address-information is supposed to go (and vice-versa), then slap a few cents'-worth of postage on the envelope/box so that it still won't cost you much to ship your parcel but it won't blatantly look as if you are merely trying to mail the parcel for free, and deposit your item in the Post Office's "anonymous" mail-slot or "outside box" to avoid your having to face the scrutinizing eyes of a postal employee who naturally would just reject the package right off. Then, of course, the Post Office will have no choice but to just unwittingly go ahead and deliver your package to its intended recipient (incorrectly believing that he is the sender who grossly under-stamped the package, and that they are therefore merely performing a "returned to sender for postage" procedure); this works best for merely "local-destination" mail, since the Post Office might balk --- and be suspicious about how this "distantly"-return-addressed parcel ever got into their "local" outgoing-mail box --- at expensively "returning" a mail-piece to a faraway location.

Refers to either:
(1) a horrid misdeed involving mowed-'n'-dried livestock-feed, or
(2) a shockingly-inconsiderate/insensitive "cheating a horny stud outta his promised reward" infraction whereby a "cow" (i.e., a seemingly-willing gal) refuses to "give her milk" (i.e., spread her legs) for a dude after he's naively/trustingly "fed her a bale of premium timothy-and-alfalfa" --- i.e., performed a valuable action on her behalf, such as spending money on her, taking her out to dinner, completing one or more yucky/boring/difficult tasks for her, etc. --- in exchange for her promise of letting him "milk her" (i.e., partake in a bouncy-bouncy with her) when said favor has been completed.

Da term "haynous crime" could also humorously describe a combination of da above two examples --- i.e., how a delightful barn-loft tryst between a farmer's daughter and her penis-proffering lover would likely be viewed by her strict-and-feared "paw" if he ever found out about it, such as if said blinky-eyed chick "got a bun in da oven". (Never mind da fact dat SHE HERSELF was probably conceived in exactly da same way --- i.e., her "maw" and "paw" had probably shared a few "rolls in da cattle-grass" of their own a decade-and-a-half or more ago, causing an unexpected pregnancy dat resulted in said now-sexually-active daughter's existence. So said "Big Daddy" would therefore have "little room to talk" regarding history's merely having repeated itself in da procreation department!)
