Dais-naid

A casually-flippant acronym-remark (stands for "Do as I say, not as I do") uttered by a habitual hypocrite in response to any and all "whistleblowers" who protest the consistency-deprived sinner's "talking out of both sides of his mouth" during his day-to-day behavior and interactions with the world in general.
Anytime I take exception to someone's overly-critical attitude towards me over seemingly-trivial issues, I carefully look over the criticizer's own life and try to seek out any shocking and/or glaringly-obvious ways that he himself "falls short", and I then throw these examples right back in his face. Usually he will at least grudgingly acknowledge my points as valid, shruggingly saying, "Ah, well --- touché, I guess," and then add as an afterthought, "Dais-naid".

prose and Khans

Written words detailing a main nemesis in da Star Trek canon.
After researching da prose and Khans, I decided to purchase da "Original Series" VHS-tape set, since I loved how da image-strips on da spine-labels of said collection collectively form a complete image of da USS Enterprise when stowed in chronological order in their cardboard box-sleeve.

hat-plop emphasis

Refers to an occasion where you are accompanying your buddy on a warm-weather stroll and he has asked you to temporarily carry his floppy sun-hat, and then during your shared conversation, you voice a strong and/or important statement that carries a significant amount of "weight" to it; you therefore "drive home" your point by dramatically/flourishingly squashing your friend's hat back onto his head.
Using hat-plop emphasis to drive home your point is not intended to be offensive or demeaning in the least, of course, but it must be performed appropriately/diplomatically in order to avoid your seeming arrogant or insulting. One of the best ways to accomplish this is to smile and raise your eyebrows somewhat as you carry out this maneuver; extra credit if you also make a loud humorous spluttering sound with your tongue/lips --- like imitating the long raspy passing of gas --- as you do so, ensuring that the person knows that you have merely playful/harmless intentions in your actions.
