hairoism 

Amazing achievements regarding cranial fur.
Parent of young children: I was in total hysterics after my 6-year-old son tried out his barbering skills on his little sister; fortunately, however, the town barber was able to preform an act of total hairoism on said cranial-makeover disaster, and thus make Little Daughter's tresses look tolerably dignified till they grew out again and could then be re-styled back to normal.

substitoot 

Someone whom you hire to do your bragging --- i.e., "blow your own horn" ---- for you.
Tronald Dump never had any need for a substitoot during his presidency, since he so greatly enjoyed doing all his bombastic boasting himself.

Pamnesia 

A confused mental state whereby you forget whether or not you applied cooking-spray to your frying pan.
If you suffer from Pamnesia, simply running your fingertip along da inside of your skillet will usually give you a clue --- if it feels slippery, then you're probably good to go.

lamnesia 

What someone wandering the streets in an apparent "mental blank" claims to have when informed not only of his identity, but dat he's wanted by da cops.
A number of individuals who claim to not know who they are turn out to be escaped convicts; sounds like classic cases of "lamnesia" to me.

graditude 

Appreciative feelings towards either (1) someone who recently got his high school diploma, or (2) one or more individuals who helped you to complete high school with passing marks.
I was home-schooled during my teenage learning-years, so graditude was not something I ever experienced personally. That's perfectly fine with me, though; I never was able to cope in public school, anyway.

days of your 

Refers to one or more fondly-looked-back-on periods in one's life when his waking hours were his to do with as he pleased, rather than having other humans with authority over him dictate how he spent his time.
Young children often bemoan da loss of their "days of your" once they have to start going to public school and thus have their free time to play and relax drastically reduced. Perhaps this issue could be greatly alleviated if we'd give some of John Holt's ideas on education a try.

reintrucknation 

What Tow Mater's non-passenger-vehicle buddies feel like they've experienced after a complete overhaul.
I never could figger out why Tow Mater never seemed to want to have his missing hood or headlight replaced; maybe he was actually proud of his "worn 'n' weathered from decades of hard work" appearance, and so even a basic restoration like that would have seemed like too much of a reintrucknation to him.
