Acurate

Refers to something that's correct and truthful regarding a luxury-grade Honda
Honda's "yup-scale" brand is enthusiastically touted as being really terrific and wonderful, but judging by the high volume of consumer complaints over the past few years regarding said vehicle-brand's quality and performance, I am not really sure if all of that grandiose puffery is completely Acurate!

stewdent

A pupil in a cooking class who's learning how to whip up tasty chopped-beef-and-veggies dishes.
A gourmet chef was famously asked by one of his admiring stewdents how he always created such "good food"; his oft-quoted reply was, "Start with GOOD INGREDIENTS."

Albuquirky

Da large New Mexico city where a lot of oddball shenanigans occur.
Why should I resign myself to visiting a boring everyday metropolis when I could be entertained wif loopy adventures 24/7 in Albuquirky?

get poor

Refers to when someone who has usually been "financially comfy" encounters an unexpected downturn in da ol' budget-department, and therefore is no longer able to "live da soft life" for da time being.
I suggested that my fairly-affluent neighbor consult my local "running on a shoestring" mechanic friend for lower-priced auto parts, but he somewhat-snortingly replied, "Well, yeah --- I could do that if I didn't mind dealing with a crook." Well, naturally, I felt kinda shocked and hurt, since the low-income junkyard-owner whom we were alluding to had always "used me good" --- he and his family were smilingly friendly, often gave my rides around town, and always let me use the office-phone in his repair-shop to make local calls in the days before my folks had a telephone of our own. But then just a few weeks later when I'd gone to make a phone call at the garage, I saw that this same somewhat-snooty neighbor had indeed stopped over there to see about a cobbled-together pickup truck that my friend was selling --- oooooohhhhh, did he ever look disgusted and humiliated to be even setting foot on this "lower-class" dude's property! I felt really glad that he apparently never observed me that time, so that he wouldn’t feel even MORE embarrassed that I knew that he had in fact eventually gone to try doing business with this guy, but at the same time I did feel a slight urge to gloatingly waltz out and sarcastically giggle to my neighbor, “So --- ya actually DID come to see this ‘crook’ after all, eh??? Kinda makes ya wanna think twice from now on about trash-talking other folks like that, eh? Ya never know when ya might ‘get poor’ and hafta go see them after all, eh??"

Miss Punnymany

Da super-helpful-and-dedicated secretary of da great stand-up comedian Bames Johnned; she often sits off-stage with a two-way earpiece-radio to maintain constant communication with him, and quietly makes joke-suggestions to Mr. Johnned if he is occasionally is at a loss for words.
Bames Johnned: Good evening, Folks, and thank you so much for coming; you all look absolutely fabulous from here! A funny thing happened on my drive over here tonight --- I saw a whole flock of wild geese in the grassy median of the freeway, and they were all making a huge commotion over something they'd found on the ground. Dunno why they were being so noisy about it, though; I guess that they just --- ummmm..."
Miss Punnymany: "How 'bout, 'they just enjoy honking their own horns', Sir?"
Bames Johnned: "Yes --- they just enjoy honking their own horns! Thanks, Miss Punnymany --- how would I ever manage without you?"

yackupuncture

Refers to where you "needle" someone to quit flappin' his gums all da live-long day!
In da next-to-da-last book in da 26-volume "Sweet Pickles characters" series, it details da jabber-jawing habits of a huge woolly horned mammal. Not sure if yackupuncture would have been overly effective in slacking his constant barrage of joking, opining, and complaining, since he obviously enjoyed "flooding da airwaves" so much --- perhaps "yakupuncture" might have worked a bit better in his case?

grapht

Dishonest use of one's chart-drawing skills for personal gain.
They say dat acquiring illicit profits can be sexually arousing, so if you use powdered graphtite as pigment for drawing up your BS-laden easel-presentation at a funds/allocations meeting, said actions might indeed "put some lead in your pencil".
