anonimhity

What you hope to have maintained if you seek da services of a shrink.

Public sentiment regarding mental illness has greatly changed for the better over the recent decades, so there is less need for anonimhity if you are "on medication" and/or "seeing someone about that".

comic relief

Da stress-reducin' effect you experience from readin' da funny papuhs.

I sometimes save cartoon-pages without reading them, so that I can have some comic relief whenever something upsetting/disappointing happens in my life. It's more effective at lifting my spirits than chowing down on a tub of ice cream, and it's totally non-fattening, as well.

specshill

How a grateful individual makes you feel while you're "puffing" him in da public eye.

A famous "Doonesbury" cartoon-sequence featured a "parody book" entitled "The Whitewash Years, by Henry Kissinger", and a TV mini-series called "Hype Henry", which was "brought to you by the Chase-Manhattan Bank". It doesn't state whether Mr. Big-Glasses made said glowing-media-producers feel "specshill" for said undeserved laudatory activities, however.

sporeadically

Refers to da random frequency dat you have coughing-fits from stepping on puffballs while strolling in da woods.

Enjoying da Great Outdoors is all well and good, and can indeed be very beneficial to your health. If you have allergies to pollen and mold, though, you might be wise to first consult da locals in da general area where you wanna go exploring, and inquire about what kinds of allergen-emitting plants are in da fields and woods, and where said problematic organisms are located, so dat hopefully you can avid sporeadically hacking up a storm during your treks.

stunographer

A dictation-typist who absolutely flabbergasts others with his/her transcribing accuracy, speed, etc.

Stella Pajunas-Garnand set the world record for typing speed at 216 words per minute in 1946. I wonder if she'd have been a total stunographer, as well?

Calmunist

A non-capitalism-supporting person who believes in living a quiet peaceful existence.

Russia is in a temperish uproar right now, so I dunno how they can call themselves "Calmunists".

optical delusion

Something that is merely for show or aesthetic/cosmetic purposes only --- it simply makes something APPEAR better or more attractive, but it does not actually add to the strength/quality/usefulness of the person or object.

Excellent examples of optical delusion are paint, Bondo, fancy costumes, plastic surgery, etc... they may make something or someone LOOK really nice on the outside, but the cosmetically-altered subject is still the same decrepit undesirable underneath.
