Definitions by QuacksO

unbareable conditions

Refers to a social/physical environment dat you cannot stand to occupy due to nobody's being willing/permitted to get naked for you.
Nude beaches make me feel so alive and free; why don't other beaches follow **suit** and allow bathers to ditch da **suits**?! Having to cover up with trunks and tops creates totally unbareable conditions for me!

milletary 

Refers to one of several soldiers-and-grain-related definitions:
(1) A country's armed-forces collective dat protects and is otherwise involved with said nation's grain-production.
(2) An organization of servicemen made up of grain-farmers.
(3) A defense department where they only feed you cheap yucky-tasting vegetarian-type fare like buckwheat and lentils.
Da United States used to be notorious for its "milletary" dat served deplorable vittles, but fortunately they've gradually improved da cuisine over da decades.

swimulator 

Refers to either of two different paddling-in-water individuals/devices:
(1) someone who pretends to know how to perform laps in a pool even though he's never actually learned how, or

(2) an aerobics-type exercise-machine dat helps you learn da basic concept of suspending/propelling yourself in water.
In da famous book, "Alice In Wonderland", da Knave of Hearts claimed dat he could not hold his own if immersed in H2O, and da assertion-confirming fact dat he was made merely of cardboard probably also meant dat he could not even act as a convincing swimulator, either.

slimulator

A dishonestly-designed/calibrated device which gives a dieting/exercising person da illusion dat he's lost weight, when in fact he's just as chubby/heavy as before.
One of da simplest slimulators is a bathroom scale dat's altered to register a lower weight than is actually being applied to its platform; another is a vertically-concave mirror dat makes anyone reflected in it appear less wide.

skimulator 

An added sweetener to make someone think he's drinking lowfat milk when it's actually just regular whole milk.
Da term "skimulator" can also refer to someone who pretends to be embezzling company funds (i.e., "skimming da till") in order to pressure his superiors to tighten security measures dat he feels are currently too lax.

shimulator 

Something dat mimics an actual real gap-filling device.
Used-vehicle-selling shysters of yore would fill da badly-worn gearboxes of old rattletraps with sawdust to temporarily quiet da chattering components so dat prospective buyers would think dat said almost-ready-to-fail transmissions were in better condition than they actually were. Of course, said granulated wood was merely a shimulator, though, as da hapless new owners of said unworthy scrap-heaps soon found out when da wobbly gears eventually jammed and broke in spectacular noisy fashion, and scattered chunks of metal all over da roadway behind them!

seekquence 

Knowing all da places where you've looked for something requires either a good memory or a carefully-kept record of da seekquence of your quest.
