Preparation H

Recipe from Hell. Refers to any concoction or mixture of two or more substances (a home-made remedy, restaurant offering, bartender creation, etc) that almost nobody can stand; this unappealing product can seem even more repulsive if there are one or two weirdos who actually enjoy or support the existence of the horrid cocktail.

I don't know how that bewhiskered snake-oil hippie is actually still selling all of that Preparation H he's hawking --- I'd have to be insane to even take a whiff of that disgusting goo!

antimoney

"Precious metal" (i.e., gold or silver, as represents cash) dat is "added to da mix" to form a stronger "bond" in a relationship.

Antimoney works great to help maintain strong interpersonal "bonds", but "auntimoney" is even more gloriously effective at keeping da younger "isotopes" (i.e.,. nieces and nephews) happy!

tight-fittin' genes

An unfortunate inherited "legacy" which cause many of the descendants to be heavy-statured, whether they try to live healthfully or not.

(From an old Snuffy Smith cartoon) Elviney: I am soooo envious of that woman down the street --- she gets a brand-new dress every week!
Loweezy: Oh, no worries, darlin' --- that's only 'cuz she goes up another DRESS SIZE every week! It's those dad-blamed tight-fittin' genes!

atrofeed

How Garfield claims he will become if Jon doesn't give him huge portions of rich-caloried delectables every few hours.

Da term "atrofeed" can also refer to da depleted-resources state dat your bank-accounts will eventually become if you don't maintain prudent financial practices, and thus da banks and other places of business dat you frequent will slap you wif astronomical service-charges and other added expenses due to your lack of awareness and diligence.

municipull

Being caring and dedicated is all well and good as far as how da head-honchos in your area may listen to you, but having a fat back account will usually give you more municipull.

SHOULD do vs. DOO-doo

Not to be confused with anti-hypocrisy tutelage ("This what we SHOULD do, but it is not what a lot of people actually DO do"), this term refers to what you attempt to teach a fellow living creature during house-training.

A classic example of "SHOULD do vs. DOO-doo" would be an '80's-era "Garfield" cartoon where Jon Arbuckle was upset when Odie "left a gift on the carpet"; he then expressed great appreciation to Garfield for being housebroken.

maridon'twanna

What da "just say no to cannabis" campaign is always telling young people to say.

If someone asks you any "juana" questions --- i.e., if "Tijuana" try some "marijuana" --- you may need to actually lie to him when you reply dat you "maridon'twanna", since in reality your naive innocent curious mind may indeed actually "mariwanna" try it "just to see what it's like". No need to feel conscience-pricked for your less-than-honest answer, though... needlessly consuming drugs of any kind is never wise, and it's almost always better to merely tell a lie --- especially to a himself-less-than-honorable person like a narcotics-dealer who therefore doesn't even deserve to always be told da truth, anyway --- than to potentially ruin your entire life (both health-wise and legally) by "making a mistake" with addictive substances.
