broughamance 

A "close 'n' cuddly" relationship dat is partaken of while going for one or more clippity-clops in a fancy small carriage.
If you pick up your date in a vintage Cadillac land-yacht --- which nowadays can be purchased for comparatively little due to this type of of "extravagant" ride's not being very popular anymore --- this could still be considered a "broughamance", and would likely cost a lot less in da long run than actually hiring a traditional "coach and four" on multiple occasions. And for better gas mileage, da deluxe version of da Plymouth Valiant might also pass muster, provided dat yer date is tolerant and economy-minded, as well.

minimullist living 

A step down from an actual teetotaler, this lifestyle involves imbibing as few tall frothies as is bearable.
Da King bombastically claimed to be practicing temperance, but in reality, he --- like da Duke --- was merely practicing "minimullist living", in dat he would "drink nothing stronger than sarsaparilla" when out in public, but then he'd "surreptitiously sneak a sip" when nobody was looking.

restitootion

Compensatory actions/resources for being subjected to either farting or horn-playing.
All dinner-guests should be required to sign a liability-waiver if either baked beans are served or brass-band music is performed, so dat said gathering's hosts won't hafta worry about having restitootion sought.

tareorism 

Humorous term for da actions of a weight-accuracy-obsessed individual who is constantly zeroing a digital scale whenever it is empty.
Da dry-goods-market owner frequently re-calibrates da store's measuring devices, but I wouldn't go so far as to accuse him of tareorism.

Buspyrone 

A special medication dat foreign secret agents take to calm them during their covert assignments.
In da hilarious "Bob & Ray Show", da incompetent and loose-lipped character "Elmer W. Litzinger, Spy" openly announces his name and occupation to literally everyone whom he interacts with, and so it would be pointless for him to take Buspyrone for more-placid secret-keeping, since everyone knows about him already! :P

Buspurrone

What Jon Arbuckle needs to take for reducing his stress-level when dealing with Garfield.
Everyone's favorite tubby tabby uses just his "throat thunder" to try to calm his "like putty in my paws" owner, but given said flippant furball's other antics, said hapless human would likely also need a daily dose of Buspurrone to supplement said velvety vocalizations.

Carpirone

I only drive a small SUV, so why should my doctor prescribe BUSpirone when conceivably I should only need CARpirone?
