LESSons

What the school claims are necessary to learn so as not to become a MOREon.

I slaved my a** off through long LESSons of studying all those boring textbooks in school during my teen years, yet nowadays as an adult I occasionally still get called a MOREon.

attétude

A short musical composition that denotes the cranky demeanor that one or more people were in at the time when the work was written.

I guess that the musical pieces by Chopin and Liszt are palatable to some people, but I find a lot of them to just be crash-bash attétudes with little melodious appeal.

Simmeron

anti-sway bar

A stick of candy dat you bribe someone with in order to keep him from being "convinced otherwise" by one or more fellow humans who might try to get him to change his presently-in-agreement-with-you viewpoint.

Anti-sway bars can indeed sometimes be an effective way to keep someone "on your team", but it can also prevent said person from honestly pondering a particular topic or issue and then forming his own unbiased opinion about said subject, similar to how main-stream religion often does.

Refers to either (1) steps dat you take to conceal your shutter-box from being observed by da subject of yer photos, or (2) steps dat da would-be subject of yer photo-snapping endeavors takes to conceal himself from da prying-probing "eye" of yer lens.

Celebrities, politicians, suspected/convicted felons, etc. are often da subject of assorted stealthy high-tech attempts by reporters at getting candid snapshots, and so they hafta employ pretty advanced cameraflage techniques of their own in order to be left alone.
