pi r round

The correct way to say the equation --- "pie" are NOT "square"; pies are round. Cornbread and sheet-cakes have square corners.
"Pi r round" is correct for humans, of course, but you shouldn't apply it when feeding cattle --- their hay-bales should always be the rectangular type; with the round bales, the cows won't be getting a square meal.

curtesy

Da grudgingly-resentful politeness dat you receive from an overworked-and-underpaid employee or other businessperson who is expected to behave civilly to you, but doesn't feel like doing so for whatever reason.
Ethan Couch had aggravated da school faculty so much dat it's a wonder if they were able to extend more than just common curtesy towards him.

Why, when I was a boy...

Da often-largely-bu**s**t "you think THAT'S difficult/meager/boring?? You coddled soft-livin' young people of today haven't a bleepin' CLUE about how dull/tough/harsh things USED to be for the common person!" retort given by arrogant elders to try to brush off a whiny-but-often-perfectly reasonable/legitimate request/complaint/excuse proffered by someone "from da newer generation".
Before you go sagely wagging your finger and snorting, "Why, when I was a boy..." anytime a younger person whimpers/protests to you about something, you should first seriously consider whether whatever "way back when" condition that you are referring to was truly fair/wise/healthy, or if it was merely based on the "unenlightened" prejudiced/close-minded/stereotypical thinking, unawareness/disregard for basic health/safety concerns, etc. which was so tragically rampant "back in the good ol' days", such as toxic building-materials, leaded gasoline, racial hatred, disregard for the dangers of radioactivity, lack of tolerance/sympathy/allowances for physically and/or mentally-challenged citizens, etc. Maybe the "young whippersnapper" who is bringing his dissatisfaction to your attention does indeed have a valid point which stems from modern-day knowledge and progressive thinking --- again, just because YOU had to put up with all of that "insipid/hard/agonized-living" crap during your formative years does **not** arbitrarily mean that it was fair or safe or reasonable, and therefore you should not blindly use it as a justifying example of what said youngster should think/tolerate nowadays.

sanktions

Hindrances to free trade caused by multiple scuttling of ships in a harbor or other navigational area.
In the ancient tale of Theseus and the Minotaur, the fleeing heroes used sanktions to clutter the Cretian waterway behind them and thus prevent King Minos from pursuing them.

Bill Clitton

The infamous American former commander-in-chief with such rip-roaring “raging whoremoans” that he possessed an insatiable craving for women’s “equatorial regions”.
Bill Clitton may have felt smugly self-satisfied and derisively-amused about all of his extramarital “triumphs”, but I'm guessing that his wife didn’t find the whole business one bit “Hillary-ous”.

jubileev

A portmanteau word that is used to ask if your listener finds a happy-ending story credible.

Kilometers Sittish

Da little-known pint-sized lazy-a** relative of da famous --- or infamous --- colonial warmonger-bigwig; if Priscilla Mullins hadn't wanted to marry da latter dude, then she SURE AS SHOOTIN' wouldn't have been interested in da FORMER!
If his bombastic-but-bashful "big guy" relative had not da courage to ask for a lady's hand in marriage himself, probably Kilometers Sittish wouldn't have possessed da nerve to even **ask someone else** to assist him in dis way, and so he likely remained a bachelor all his life.
