delearium

Da "touched in da head" status dat da famous "Inverter Bill" must have had if he actually thought dat his "altered water" substance would be so commercially successful as da car radio, 8-track tape-cartridge, battery-charger, AC-to-DC power supply, and some of his other better-known inventions.

Truly believing dat you could use anything other than plain water for powering a steam-engine bus would probably just be pure delearium!

(Okay, okay, nerd inventors --- I merely said "probably", because it certainly IS true dat we actually do NOT know what miracle substances dat may exist out there which might indeed work better than water for producing boiler-pressure!)

psychillogical

What a lot of "checkup from the neck-up" bu**s**t is.

A lot of psychILLOGICAL teachings make no sense and thus are unappealing from da get-go, but some of it --- i.e., da "psyCHILLogical" portions --- are worded so cleverly/craftily dat they actually sound "cool" and thus appear at least seemingly plausible to a non-aSTUTE STUDEnt.

tail-wind

An opposite-of-headwind breeze dat you would NOT want to have happen if you yourself were producing a significant "tail-wind" which you did not want to have to smell.

If you need to avoid a tail-wind to prevent your own "tail-wind" from assailing yer nostrils, ya can always try simply walking in da opposite direction.

Keep the caps on the Schnapps

"Fancy-pants" way of saying "keep da plug in da jug".

If da King had followed his own "Keep the caps on the Schnapps" advice during his temperance-revival meetings instead of periodically "puttin' in his time with a private jug, on the sly", he might not have been pursued by all of da angry townspeople whom he'd duped and swindled.

SURELY you can't be Sirius

What you'd say when opening your exorbitant satellite-radio bill.

NINETY-NINE bucks for a car-entertainment-audio subscription?! SURELY you can't be Sirius!
I **am** "Sirius", and don't call me "Shirley". :P
(Actually, SiriusXM is fairly cheap per month; the $99.00 amount is for a three-year subscription.)

souperior

Meat/veggies-and-broth concoctions of extra-sumptuous nature.

Campbell's claims to produce "souperior" canned goods, but I often prefer da Progresso brand instead.

sueperior

What a "never lost a case" law-firm claims to be.

Many ambulance-chaser outfits who trumpetingly claim a 100% win-record may have actually "cherry-picked" da cases dat they agreed to take --- i.e., they only represented clients who had overwhelmingly-convincing arguments. So they weren't actually of "sueperior" skill, intellect, cleverness, etc.; they merely made sure dat da cases they handled would be likely to win in any case, not actually taking any and all cases presented to them, and magically winning them all no matter what da odds.
