QuacksO's definitions

undiversity

A narrowly-focused college where they only offer a tight "bandwidth" of course-subjects.

Some "undiversity" colleges may not encourage broad-minded thinking, but they sure know how to "party big time" and have a "wide variety" of ways to perform said "whoopin' it up"!

Maxxesota

Da larger "sister state" to da Midwest one by da Canadian border.

If you have a huge craving for fizzy libation, da state of "Minisoda" might not quite satisfy said exceptional thirst; you might hafta go to Maxxesota to really get da massive swallows necessary to quench yer dehydrated throat.

Van Suylenc

Sister city to da "rackety" northwest-of-Hollywood city. Pronounced, "Van Noise", but "spelled funny" to match da "weird-word" in da name of its "next-door neighbor" constant-din metropolis.

If "Van Nuys" is at one side of da "Van Cities" area, and "Van Suylenc" is at da opposite side, what would be da "merely-moderate-sound-levels" area in between said "extreme-opposite" territories? "Van Muyrmur"?

inspired expection

An upbeat-minded prediction of future events regarding whether da cops will notice da no-longer-valid vehicle-exam sticker on your windshield.

I saw a car today dat had a garage-check label from three years ago --- da owner must possess a really "inspired expection" to risk blatantly ignoring da BMV laws for dat long a time!

Brazilience

Kettering Five

Da infamous group of shady-mechanic goons who conspired to make hand-crank-start engines obsolete.

True story: da "Kettering" and "Keating" characters were both named "Charles"; said similarity is what gave me da idea for da "Kettering Five". So da five cohorts under Kettering's self-starter regime might have been:
Alan Crankston (Google da real names yourself --- I ain't got time to 'splain all da puns to ya :P)
Dennis DeConvenience
John Generator
John McChine
Donald W. Regulator

specusooner

A financial chance-taker who's a whale of a lot speedier than a "speculater".

Earlybird Oklahomans were classic "specusooners" who bought up land before it was technically legal to do so, but they acquired many prime land-parcels a lot earlier than da "speculaters" who eventually dawdled in after da official start of da Land Run of 1889.
