QuacksO's definitions

swimulator

Refers to either of two different paddling-in-water individuals/devices:
(1) someone who pretends to know how to perform laps in a pool even though he's never actually learned how, or

(2) an aerobics-type exercise-machine dat helps you learn da basic concept of suspending/propelling yourself in water.

In da famous book, "Alice In Wonderland", da Knave of Hearts claimed dat he could not hold his own if immersed in H2O, and da assertion-confirming fact dat he was made merely of cardboard probably also meant dat he could not even act as a convincing swimulator, either.

Timbucktu

Dat "ultimate in faraway" country where everything costs a dollar, there are lots of antlered deer, and da horses are unrideable.

Besides all of Timbucktu's above-mentioned attributes, everyone there rebels against Da System, as well, so maybe habitual law-breakers would find it enjoyable.

motelity

How capable one is of staying at a roadside-lodgings establishment. Could be affected by various things, such as the person's medical needs, or whether said individual has to wear an ankle-monitor.

Anytime I meet a new gal, I always hafta remember to inquire as to her motelity, just in case we can't always just do the standard "your place or mine?" routine when we wanna have a good time.

sectretary

Da person at da front desk of a hippie-cult compound.

Seeing as how free love is a prime theme of many fringe groups, da sectretary gals at many such communes might well have a high turnover rate due to pregnancy, since they would likely spread their legs for any male human who happened in da front door for any reason.

therapy dude

A super-cool male human (usually fairly young --- i.e., between the ages of mid-teens through late 20's --- but can be any age) who either already possesses exceptional tolerance/awareness/understanding/sympathy regarding the more-well-known physical/mental/emotional infirmities and "meltdown triggers" experienced by his fellow humans, or has caringly volunteered to take special training to familiarize himself with such matters; he is therefore qualified --- similar to a therapy dog, cat, horse, bird, or other friendly-natured pet --- to accompany one or more distress-sufferers (usually a similar-aged male, but again, the assistance-receiver can be any age or gender) during particularly stressful everyday tasks and/or errands, and provide nurturing soothing companionship to said sufferers and thus make their lives significantly more palatable. And of course, female equivalents of this admirable caregiver --- known as "therapy chicks" --- also exist; they, too, can be of any age, and provide warm-hearted accompaniment and supplementary assistance to fellow humans of any age or gender.

Therapy dudes sometimes have a very difficult/stressful job, but somebody has to do it. Hats off to them.

millennionaire

A rich person who "made it" post-Y2K.

Bill Gates undoubtedly "did okay for himself" during da decades when desktop computers were becoming a thing, but he totally became a millennionaire after laptops and smart phones really took off.

door-laches

A law dat prevents someone from hollering about a gate's being left unsecured if said closable barrier has been in said undone state for a long period of time.

As often as James Herriot had vehemently reminded Farmer Ripley about the broken gate that kept causing him injurious grief every time he had to open or shut it, there is little chance that said lazy farmer could bring a door-laches claim against said hapless country-vet for his indignant and aggravated protests regarding said deteriorated barrier.
