QuacksO's definitions

responsybil

How Basil Fawlty's long-suffering wife behaves compared to her temperishly-impulsive hubby.
Da proprietress of Fawlty Towers may indeed be "responsybil" in many ways, but her inherent laziness and her ability to infuriate her already-high-strung other half usually seem to largely negate da benefits of such prudent actions.

ferry tales

Da body of literary fiction recounting da adventures of Theodore Tugboat and his friends.
Many of da stories in Da Brothers Grimm's book were morbid and violent; I much prefer da modern-day ferry tales, where everyone generally makes an effort to get along and work together.

wedding serumony

A service where two "venomous" individuals tie the knot.
If a black widow and a black widower decide to get hitched, it is often a miracle if they even make it through the wedding serumony without at least one coffin's being sent in.

swellebration

A "bragging rights" crowing dat a gal engages in after giving a dude a major hard-on.
A lot of guys get huge boners at da sight of any even-marginally-attractive lady "in da buff", so dat is not necessarily much cause for swellebration.

a life of luxsherry

Da carefree existence dat every aspiring/optimistic alcoholic wishes to attain.
Da "perpetually thirsty" King and Duke had hoped to begin living a life of luxsherry once they'd absconded with da Wilks family's fortune, but thanks to Huck, Doc Robinson, other caring townspeople, and da real Wilks brothers, all dat said "pair of low-down reptiles" ended up with was even drier throats --- not to mention emptier pockets, thanks to their "making up da deffersit" of da slightly-less-than-da-stated-total of da deceased man's gold loot by adding in virtually all of their own ill-gotten gold coins --- than they'd had to start with!

butt buffer-zone

Refers to the distance between Uranus and the outer perimeter of your butt-cheeks, in terms of how far an accidentally-released blob of poop has to "travel" before it reaches --- and subsequently soils --- your clothing and/or whatever surface that you happen to be presently sitting/lying upon.
Many people think that having a huge flabby behind in undesirable, but it can actually be an advantage if you occasionally suffer from liquid farts, since it provides you with a greater butt buffer-zone; this is especially fortuitous if you happen to be sitting or reclining at the time of said unexpected discharge, since it is exhaustingly more laborious to properly sanitize a seat-cushion or mattress, whereas soiled clothing can usually just be soaked in detergent-solution and then tossed in the washer.

propriety-penalty

Refers to any case where Big Brother hypocritically "talks out of both sides of his mouth" in the management/oversight of certain economic policies; i.e., the Government loudly claims to approve/disapprove of a certain practice/behavior, yet they tax you or charge you extra if you actually "do the right thing" in that instance.
A classic example of "propriety-penalty" is the marriage-tax, whereby two people who marry are collectively charged more than twice the amount of income-tax that just one of them would have to pay "on his own", and government-provided financial assistance (i.e., Social Security, SSI Disability, etc.) that two benefits-eligible people receive is significantly reduced if they get married instead of merely practicing the socially-frowned-upon "co-habitating without a wedding band" living-arrangement... in both cases, you get "financially penalized" for "doing the right thing"! It's little wonder that so few couples --- especially the younger ones who might be required to pay income tax if their earnings are high enough --- want to "tie the knot" nowadays; these destructive monetary policies actually **encourage** love-birds to "misbehave" in this way.
