Proposition 13

Howard Jarvis's well-meaning attempt to eradicate superstition from the citizenry of California.
Proposition 13 may indeed have helped in reducing one form of irrational terrors, but only about fear of numbers --- it did nothing to alleviate phobias about black cats, walking under a ladder, etc.

Ahkeelyou's heel

Achmed's weakness.
It is often quite difficult to get Achmed to cooperate or even hold a decent conversation, but if you offer him a bomb or other device of mass-destruction, that is his Ahkeelyou's heel, and you will totally have him eatin' outta yer hand --- anything that involves widespread annihilation and catastrophic ruination appeals to him immensely.

nappy-headed ho ho ho

A department-store Santa with a disgraceful hairdo-malfunction.
If "the Don" ever tries his hand at playing a Wally-World Father Christmas for da little kiddos, "Imus" be sure to check to see if dat nappy-headed ho ho ho has done anything to "tame" dat infamous "wild" hair of his!

Allahgash

A rural northern-Maine area largely populated by Muslim immigrants.
Aroostook County is the most northerly area of Maine and is therefore well above the 45th parallel, so I strongly doubt that the residents of the Allahgash area would be likely to wear heat-deflecting white robes or turbans the way they would in their sweltering home-countries.

fistivities

Gala sporting-events involving the performers' punching each other.
I've never liked the idea of physical-violence-type contact-sports like boxing, so I never attend said fistivities.

IndyAnnapolis

Da Maryland city where Henry Jones, Jr. was born.
If da famous bullwhip-wielding adventurer actually grew up in IndyAnnapolis, how come his hometown's area looks like it's set in the Midwest?

euphemisema

A severe malady of the throat/lungs caused by the over-use of euphemisms. More serious than emphasisema --- a somewhat-similar but less-acute/chronic coughing/wheezing condition caused by habitually speaking urgently/loudly about unimportant topics --- it is generally only treatable by diligently avoiding all forms of "meaningless adjectives", even the "milder" or "imitation" phrases.
Although euphemisema is a serious disease, it is still morally-preferable to using actual swear words, since this can cause even more horrid effects on those within earshot. Therefore is it less selfish to"take one for the team" and get sick yourself , rather than searing others' tender eardrums with a perpetual potty-mouth.
