ryeder-bill

A bootleg-liquor-related addendum-submission dat is surreptitiously slipped in along with a proposed law or rule for consideration by Congress or da President.
During Prohibition, it seems likely dat lots of ryeder-bills were sneaked into da House and Senate with da hope of their being unwittingly approved without being noticed too much.

post-repair high-five

Refers to da hearty/relieved palms-slap dat two laborers exchange when a device actually operates properly again after they've been feverishly/trepidatiously working to repair it.
My buddy and I had thoroughly cleaned the battery-terminals on my car, topped off the water in the battery's cells and wire-brushed its posts, and then carefully re-connected everything again; we totally gave each other a post-repair high-five afterwards when the engine whirled right over.

c-weed

Not to be confused with "ocean vegetation", this is a code-word for marijuana --- i.e., "c" weed, with "c" standing for "cannabis".
It's widely known that many commercial fishermen bring in "something other than fish" during many of their offshore hauls; to both avoid arousing suspicion among the authorities AND secretly convey to their cohorts that they "have the goods", they claim to be hauling "c-weed" as a side-business to their regular Pisces/crustacean-based harvesting.

drawergasm

Busting a nut over something related to either a lady's panties or a pull-out tray.
Some guys are so horny dat dey would have a DOUBLE "drawergasm" if dey slid out a walled shelf in a gal's bureau and saw her collection of lacy/filmy undergarments inside.

Your Royal Heinous

What you're really saying in your seemingly-respectful greeting of a political-figurehead leader whom you actually view as being a horridly mean/cruel/selfish person.
In the popular musical comedy "Fiddler on the Roof", it appears that the oppressed citizens of Anatevka secretly view their heavy-handed government leader as "Your Royal Heinous" --- in an opening scene, the rabbi is asked: “Is there a proper blessing for the tsar?” The rabbi responds: “A blessing for the tsar?” He ponders awhile, then pronounces: “Of course... 'May God bless and keep the tsar... far away from us'!”

flyby with a "Hello, Tower"

A step "closer" than just a discreet flyby, this strategy DOES involve actually stopping in to the home/establishment where you wish to unobtrusively check on the conditions/progress of something relating to you, but you still do not actually inquire about said situation; you merely "exchange pleasantries and make small talk" with the people there about the weather or whatever, and then quietly leave again after a minute or two. The theory here is that if there is any problem/delay/question regarding what you are wanting done, the people will likely tell/ask you about it while you're there... they know fully well why you've dropped by --- you are wondering how things are proceeding --- and so there should be no need to make anyone feel pressured or irritated by actually alluding to the subject.
The local garage is often "swamped up to their eyeballs" with the myriad of vehicles brought in for repair, and so it is often a month or more before they are able to get around to addressing a car that I bring in. They do always eventually repair my vehicle, though, so I seldom actually ask them about how soon they can get to it; I simply do a tentative flyby with a "Hello, Tower" every couple weeks, just in case they need to speak with me regarding any problem/holdup with the repairs.

vitrious humor

Acrid "eyeball-to-eyeball" snickery sarcasm between two or more individuals who have taken the concept of "verbal sparring" to an absurd level.
Whenever possible, I always just walk away if someone starts trying to engage me in any vitrious humor; no good can come out of said exchange, and usually nobody truly "wins" in a "Yo mamma's so ___ that..." type of conversation, anyway, so why waste your breath and needlessly strain your vocal chords???
