Da standard "please bear with me --- I'm not familiar with this type or purchase" preamble-remark dat you ruefully tell a store-employee whom you ask for assistance in finding/choosing one or more items dat you never use yourself, and so you have less of an idea of how to shop for it or maybe even where it's stocked in da store.
Two good examples of when you might tell a staffperson, "I'm shopping for someone else..." might be if you were looking for a type of media-entertainment (such as books, music, or movies) dat you have no interest in yourself, or if you merely lived a simple bachelor's existence and were procuring "fussy female stuff" items for a lady-friend, such as cosmetics, dress-up clothing, fancy table-setting accessories, etc.

KARRbitration

Legal wranglings related to Da Evil Trans Am with da amber scanner-bar.
Considering all da chaos and destruction dat da "anti-Knight Rider" vehicle caused, I am sure there would have been KARRbitration for years afterwards!

Phallustine

A region of the Middle East where male nudity is permitted, and most dudes are real "dicks" when it comes to social interaction.
According to a map of the world showing the average penis-sizes of males in the different countries, guys in the Phallustine area have medium-size schlongs, whereas the love-pipes of the dudes in neighboring Lebanon are some of the largest in the world, so I wonder if the two groups are in a heated "mine is bigger than yours" competition, which might explain why many of them always go around with their "downstairs equipment" hanging out in plain view, and also why everyone seems to hate each other over there.

What you say to your helper-buddy shortly after starting out on a tedious task that has shown itself to be a lot more complicated, slow-progressing, and/or time-consuming than you'd originally expected, or to a delinquent or other emotionally/mentally-challenged client who is unable/unwilling to just give you simple straight answers.
Dr. Phil: Let's talk about your childhood.
Madea: (with cheeky cheerfulness) Let's talk about YOUR childhood.
Dr. Phil: Okay, let's try a different approach. Do you sleep well at night?
Madea (breezily): Do YOU sleep well at night?
Dr. Phil: Sigh... gonna be here a while!

Sasquatchewan

That rural Canadian province which is home to the majority of the Bigfoot population.
I'm gonna make a trip to Sasquatchewan and see if I have any luck sighting a Bigfoot.

esraven account

A larger-than-usual sum of money temporarily-stored by a third party, and that's earmarked to be doled out later upon completion of a sale or contract.
One should be very wary and careful of who is chosen to manage an esraven account, or a number of people may be forced to "eat crow" regarding said financial transaction.

Yup --- cancer-sticks are once again a much-frowned-upon commodity in society, just as they were shown to have been "way back when" in da old "Virginia Slims" magazine-advertisements.
Maybe it is indeed true dat, "You've come a long way --- er --- full-circle, Baby!" as far as cigarettes' being a sign of feminine independence --- let's hope dat it can also mean dat ladies can feel "independent" of tobacco, as well.
