eelectricity

Da source of da hair-bristling jolt dat you may likely get when you swim in waters inhabited by one or more bluntnose knifefish.
Da ancient Greeks found dat purposely subjecting themselves to eelectricity was helpful for arthritis, pain, blood-circulation issues, and other health problems. I therefore wonder if said "shocking" treatment might also be effective in reducing da "buzz" from having excessively imbibed at da local pub???

suspissious

Harboring eyebrow-raised uncertainty about whether someone "drained his radiator" in an appropriate manner.
If you see wet patches where they shouldn't be, you should be greatly suspissious of someone's assertion dat he always used da urinal.

fart dieseling

Da embarrassing (or hilarious, depending on who you talk to, and/or whether da emotions-feeler is da "actor" or da "observer") interval of "run-on" dat sometimes occurs following da "main event" --- i.e., yer butt-trumpet keeps on "purrin' like a kitten" for an extended period afterwards, rather than just "saying its piece" and then being done wif it.
In da uproarious "National Baked Bean Month" speech, da formally-dignified speaker experiences a major bout of fart dieseling towards da end, totally goofing up said oration but majorly putting his audience in stitches.

towtality

Da entire ordeal of a wrecker-dispatch.
There was indeed a major traffic jam downtown due to a stalled vehicle's needing to be hauled off to da service-station for repair, but given da towtality of da circumstances, most of da folks present didn't seem to feel like there'd been much else dat could reasonably have been done.

conflict of interest

An unfair-to-the-customer motivation that money-hungry banks have to maintain someone's having to make payments on a loan for as long as possible.
I borrowed a thousand dollars from a local credit-union so that I could pay some local tradespeople to perform much-needed repairs on my home and vehicle. But then as it turned out, these "over-booked with repair-jobs" folks were not able to get to my repairs as soon as they'd expected, and so I didn't need the loaned money nearly so soon as I'd thought I would; I realized that I'd likely be able to pay the carpenters and mechanics "on my own" just with extra-frugality-saved funds over the next few months. So I merely returned the thousand dollars to the credit union within just two or three months after I'd taken out the loan; the clerk seemed none to pleased, since they'd only made about 22 bucks extra in the deal, instead of maybe close to a hundred if I'd taken a year to pay it all back, the way they had expected me to. Guess there was a little conflict of interest there.

shopdropping

The opposite of shoplifting (secretly removing desired merchandise from a store), this act involves ADDING items to a store shelf that you do NOT want, and which you wish to be rid of but prefer not to pay the disposal fees. Can be especially handy for non-violently getting even with the personnel of a certain business establishment who has previously been undeservedly rude/surly to you, since you can gloat about the fact that now THEY will have to pay for the disposal of said unwanted merchandise.
The holier-than-thou clerk at the corner video-game store was really obnoxious to me when I merely asked politely if I could please use the phone to call my parents and let them know I'd be late, so I did a little shopdropping with my obsolete game cartridges.
