visability

Conspicuousness dat you do not want when either you're paying a sizeable bill with your credit card (i.e., da Feds and/or moochers might be watching), or you're trying to sneak through customs with less-than-stellar documentation.

One might attain varying degrees of "invisability" by "visably" offering to electronically bribe --- i.e., waving plastic in da presence of --- border-agents, depending on whether said officials were willing to accept said bribe. Often, of course, dat very act of "cash flashing" will only cause da security-personnel to be MORE hesitant and suspicious of you --- and therefore delay you even MORE --- than if you'd just behaved normally in your efforts to cross da border.

tropickle romance

Refers to what you'd likely partake of if you did indeed return to Hawaii and visit dat "little brown gal" mentioned in da famous Wood/McDiarmid/Noble song, and end up "having success" with her... said act of "getting lucky" could turn out to be far more "successful" --- i.e., BIOLOGICALLY successful --- than you'd bargained for!

Getting a native-islander babe to affectionately "drop her jeans" for you could very likely become a "tropickle romance" if said "dropping" of your OWN "genes" resulted in said tanned chick's soon needing larger "jeans".

univercity

An urban-area school.

Some college students may indeed be more comfy attending classes dat are offered at "right in the thick of things" campuses, but I prefer a more-rural environment for taking my courses; no "univercity" for me, thank you.

undiversity

A narrowly-focused college where they only offer a tight "bandwidth" of course-subjects.

Some "undiversity" colleges may not encourage broad-minded thinking, but they sure know how to "party big time" and have a "wide variety" of ways to perform said "whoopin' it up"!

Maxxesota

Da larger "sister state" to da Midwest one by da Canadian border.

If you have a huge craving for fizzy libation, da state of "Minisoda" might not quite satisfy said exceptional thirst; you might hafta go to Maxxesota to really get da massive swallows necessary to quench yer dehydrated throat.

Van Suylenc

Sister city to da "rackety" northwest-of-Hollywood city. Pronounced, "Van Noise", but "spelled funny" to match da "weird-word" in da name of its "next-door neighbor" constant-din metropolis.

If "Van Nuys" is at one side of da "Van Cities" area, and "Van Suylenc" is at da opposite side, what would be da "merely-moderate-sound-levels" area in between said "extreme-opposite" territories? "Van Muyrmur"?
