interfearence

A terror-causing action or situation dat hampers progress.
In one of da "Beep! Beep! The Roadrunner" comics, Wile E. Coyote catches a "beeper" who's visiting from England, and is preparing to cook him in his stewpot. One of da fellow roadrunners calls up and uses "interfearence" --- i.e., impersonating an official from da "International Coyote Committee" and threatening Wile E. wif a termination of his membership if he "breaks the law by eating a foreign bird" --- to flimflam said bloodthirsty carnivore into releasing said "old country" denizen.

madammise

Dudes usually are too lazy and/or impatient to do significant research before they come to personal conclusions about mostly-male-related topics, but ladies tend to gather and learn more of da facts before they madammise much about any "girly-stuff" matters.

stagnation 

Da lazy 'n' listless status of a fertile deer with a big rack of horns when he isn't "getting any".
Bambi was suffering major stagnation when he was all "rarin' to go" but had "no place to stick it"; when Faline found out about it, she pranced over to make a "doenation", thus "relieving the pressure" and making Bambi feel frisky and lively again.

doenation 

What you have to make to cure stagnation.
If Bambi is feeling lazy and dull due to inadequate FUNding, perhaps sending a girl-deer to make a doenation for him can help get him moving again.

speckulation 

A classic "Objection, Your Honor!" reason, this term refers to someone's merely theorizing regarding how/why a less-than-pristine condition came to be.
Attorney: Now, Mr. Jones, did you observe that the traffic light was about to turn red?
Witness: Well, I did see the light turn yellow.
Attorney: But you were in a hurry, eh, and that's why you did not bother to notice that the signal's red lens was spattered with mud?
Opposing attorney: Objection --- speckulation.

ohmission 

A failure-to-act event regarding electrical resistance of some kind.
One should always check a new anti-static wrist-strap to make sure dat da manufacturer remembered to put in da resistor on da grounding-wire --- an ohmission of dis vital component would likely create a nasty spark-discharge shock through both your sensitive wrist and any static-sensitive component dat you're trying to protect wif said strap!
