heart attax

What you experience whenever da annual IRS statement and/or local property-assessment bill arrives.
I always live extra-frugally and set aside a healthy emergency-fund; besides making good business sense, this diligent practice also largely safeguards against heart attax every year.

tempera tantrum

Refers to a noisy/voluminous outburst of frazzled-nerved emotion involving watercolors, either emanating from a creator/observer of a messy spill/soiling involving said paint, or the resulting preposterous canvas-creation (think, abstract art) when the "genius painter" supposedly experiences a "creative epiphany" and totally "goes wild" with his colors in an effort to supposedly illustrate his inspirations, emotions, Heavenly-based vision, etc.
Old-school art-critic: I can't believe that the TV auction actually sold that hideous tempera tantrum for several million dollars --- first of all, who in his right mind would even WANT that confusing monstrosity slapped up on his parlor-wall to stare at night and day, anyway?? And second, why should anyone want to actually BUY something like that, when it's nothing special and exhibits absolutely zero talent? Why, I'm no artist, but I could easily create something like that myself in under five minutes just by splashing some paint around and callin' it good! Zheeeeeesh....!!

win up to five times

Or LOSE up to ALL times!
If you buy five of the scratch-off tickets that say, "Win up to five times", it very likely will refer to how many times the STATE will win, since you were idiotic enough to spend the money on those five tickets and probably not win anything yourself.

Chiang Kai-Shrek

China's infamous "ogre leader" during the early-to-mid 1900's.
It's really too bad that Chiang Kai-Shrek didn't actually have vivid-green skin like his animated-cartoon cousin, or his subjects might have initially recognized him for the ogre that he truly was.

sircumspection

A close-up examination of a dude's love-pipe to determine if he's ejaculated recently.
Some parents/guardians of teenage girls are so concerned about the honor of "their little pumpkin" that they insist on performing a frequent sircumspection of any guy who dates her.

untangle-dangle

What you periodically hafta do with your handset's curly-cord to get da knots outta it --- when it gets snarled up enough, simply tugging on it just doesn't do da trick anymore... ya gotta actually unplug da cord at both ends, carefully unravel da kinks, and then suspend da cord from one end so that it can hang freely to allow it to "naturally" untwist and "equalize" itself.
Adding a swivel-adapter to your handset-cord can indeed sometimes help to reduce its getting all wrapped up around itself and save your having to perform da untangle-dangle so often, but da problem with these doodads is dat dey tend to not have very good swivel-contacts, and so you soon get a lot of static and intermittent sound. Plus da cheaper units tend to not swivel very easily, and so you gotta keep spraying them wif WD-40 to keep them twisting around freely.

clementcy

What was most definitely **not** granted Ken Rex McElroy on July 10, 1981.
Trena McElroy may indeed have wished dat Del and da other shooters had given her "town bully" husband some clementcy on dat infamous day in Skidmore, Missouri, but da townspeople had gotten totally fed up with said arrogant criminal's intimidation and brutality, and so any further tolerance of said cruelty was not to be.
