QuacksO's definitions

experimeant

A test to figger out what somebody was referring to.

A lot of "advanced" mathematics-figuring merely looks like so much scribbly gibberish to most folks, so one would need to perform a good number of experimeants to make sense of said seemingly-unintelligible calculations.

polygamraph

A lie-detector test used to supposedly determine whether or not you have a harem of spouses. Dudes like Warren Jeffs should have been required to take one prior to starting their sect-compounds.

It's lucky that electronics were unheard of back when King Salomon was around, or he would most definitely have failed the polygamraph test BIG time!

Isn'trael

Da fake country where scammers are calling from.

Many scammers can't even spell correctly, so even if they claim to be calling from "Isreal" (which, of course, definitely IS NOT a "real" country; you should already know da correct spelling of said Middle Eastern country --- I-s-r-A-E-l --- from having learned it in grade school), you would be wise to suspect dat they are actually located in ISN'TRAEL!

hugs not drugs

A well-meaning phrase that seldom actually improves anything overall, but instead merely results in a lot of emotional discomfort and sexual-harassment accusations.

"Hugs not drugs" usually doesn't solve anything, anymore than dry-drunks are actually helped by being given sweets as a reward for not imbibing, which of course merely gets them hooked on sugar instead or alcohol --- it just trades one serious addiction for another. So all that "hugs not drugs" does is to cause people who would ordinarily crave drugs to instead begin invading others' personal boundaries by demanding affectionate gestures many times per day --- again, nothing is really "solved" or "improved"; it merely shifts the abuse from one destructive habit to another comparably-damaging-to-society activity.

redneck-repair six

Refers to da half-dozen "main" or "lifesaver" items --- duct tape, WD-40, expanding-foam insulation, hose-clamps, deck/drywall-screws, and zip-ties --- dat backwoods-bumpkins absolutely rely on to get them through da day, due to these products' incredible versatility and their robust/reliable ability to "save the day" in so many occasions.

The classic "redneck-repair six" can get you out of so many everyday jams that you could probably never catalogue them all. (Think, using a Pringles-can to splice a busted radiator-hose till you can get home, re-attaching a broken tail-light, or adding mirrors on your kid's bicycle if you need him to run an emergency errand downtown.) Just watch the Red Green Show if you need any proof or examples. :P
