QuacksO's definitions

utensile-strength

How resistant yer silverware is from breaking.

Cookie Jowls is known for his tough meatballs and rubbery steaks, so Beetle Bailey and his fellow disgusted soldiers would likely need forks and knives with exceptional utensile-strength when attempting to cut up said "non-tender" comestibles into bite-sized pieces.

Chevrolaid

What you'll hopefully get by taking a hot chick for a ride in your Corvette or Camaro.

Lots of cute gals love to be "picked up", so you might have a comparable chance of getting Chevrolaid wif a squarebody-loving damsel while cruising in a Cheyanne or Scottsdale as you would in a sports car.

phase-locked loop

Refers to an unfortunate situation where someone who had begun exhibiting undesirable behavior that others had initially assumed was his "just going through a phase" actually does **not** eventually "taper off", but continues to display said distressing attitude/actions.

My teenage son started being really rude and mouthy at age 12, and our pediatrician had assured me that it was "merely a stage he was going through", and that "he'd outgrow it eventually". Well, that was over six years ago, and if anything the boy's behavior is even more sulkily-resentful and anti-social than ever --- looks like a phase-locked loop to me!

Whichita

One of two large Kansas towns, but we aren't sure if it's one or the other.

I met two old hags with long black robes and pointed black broad-brimmed hats in Whichita yesterday; they looks so similar, though, that even after they told me their names, I still couldn't tell which witch was which.

All you muddle-aged guys out there

Da actual mental state of Red Green's main audience (you know who **you** are!) who listens to his "sage wisdom and witty revelations" lectures.

I'd like to talk to all you muddle-aged guys out there --- if you get college certification but all of your prospective employers just roll their eyes at your so-called "qualifications", just tell them that you do everything that Red Green says, and that'll PROVE that you're certifiable! Remember --- I'm pullin' for ya --- we're all in this together!

buzzaar

A large gathering of merchants who are selling alcoholic beverages, and offering prospective buyers a taste of their various fermented preparations.

There's a good reason that there are "no consumption of alcoholic beverages" signs posted at many public sales events --- they don't want said gathering to turn into a huge chaotic buzzaar.

illusorry

Merely pretending to regret one's disgraceful actions.

So many criminals exhibit a deeply-penitent demeanor when being tried in court, but it's often largely illusorry --- i.e., they have not actually "had a change of heart" all of a sudden and and "become better people" as a result of their merely appearing before the law! If they were presently still free and at liberty to do as they pleased, they would likely still be smirkingly committing da very same crimes dat they had been hauled in for in da first place! Da only thing dat they're truly "sorry" for is dat they GOT CAUGHT!
