meadeiocre

Da dim blurry telescope-image results dat you'd get from cheap stargazing equipment.
Actually, da honey-wine-named optics-company is known for producing quite-good-quality instruments, so if someone reports "meadeiocre" results from a particular refractor/reflector unit, he's likely meaning dat his heavens-perusing experience was less satisfactory than a "rhymes with speed" spyglass would have afforded him.

poultergeist

What Chicken Little and her domesticated avian buddies would each have become if Foxy Loxy had succeeded in his carnivorous venture.
Da term "poultergeist" can also refer to da ghostly spirit of someone who had formerly worked with flocks of game-birds, and now goes around haunting da farmyard areas where he used to work. One has to wonder if perhaps he met his untimely demise due to his shady dealings during said care-taking employment, such as if he'd behaved like "a fox guarding a hen-house" in dat he'd been secretly snitching a few of da choicest members of his flocks to put on his own dinner-table!

enginuity

On his YouTube channel, Ron Pratt and his father drive their Polaris 4X4 deep into the woods to retrieve a stuck rental-van. Ron's father uses a combination of the side-by-side's electric winch and simultaneously revving the quad's motor to spin the alternator faster and thus create more pulling-capacity for the winch --- that's real enginuity.

Sherlock Holmes and da detectives at Scotland Yard often differed in their analyses and conclusions of da facts in a case, but they could usually reckoncile enough to bring said legal conundrum to a successful resolution.

melancallie

A dreary mood due to someone's not phoning you when you'd expected or wanted him/her to.
In a classic "Miss Piggy's Advice" column in Muppet Magazine, a mid-teenage lad complains about how his main squeeze always suffers a major bout of melancallie whenever he isn't able to "give her a jingle" in the evening, despite his repeatedly having explained to her that he's a farmer boy and thus has chores that often prevent him from being free to simply sit and "yack on the horn" for half an hour. He finishes his message to said "sage sow" by indignantly asking her, "So what am I supposed to do?!" Being a selfish brat herself --- AND a fierce feminist --- said pink-skinned flat-nosed advisor unhelpfully snorts back, "You're supposed o call her." Some help SHE turned out to be there! :P

liar lyre

An old-fashioned harp that "plays a different tune", similar to the proverbial trumpet.
Why do you say, "Liar lyre" to me? I am an honest minstrel --- trust me.

Clue Clucks Clan

A super-secretive fanatical group dedicated to deciphering the subtle meanings of hen-talk.
The Clue Clucks Clan has been known to ceremoniously incinerate the -carcasses of deceased-merely-due-to-old-age hens, but they never sacrifices a live chicken, since they honestly believe that they need each and every one of their domesticated pheasants to listen to and supposedly obtain valuable insights/knowledge from.
