QuacksO's definitions

cusstom

Da local standard or accepted norm regarding profanity. Da funny story about the little girl helping the construction-workers build a house next door is a prime example of this.

I love horses and I detest "salty" language, so I enjoy visiting my Amish friends on both accounts... they give me "free rein" (pun intended!) of their barns and fields to go and pet their large glossy-maned work-buddies all I want, and they always speak civilly to me because they have a strict zero-tolerance cusstom.

aromory

A heavily-guarded building used to store perfumes.

MP's may sometimes jokingly refer to the weapons-storage facility as an "aromory" if one or more of said cadets on security-detail unthinkingly chowed down on baked beans before starting their shift.

menaceter

A pulpit culpit --- I mean, a pulprit culprit... whatever! A creepy preacher who uses terrifying "fire and brimstone" tales to try to scare his parishioners into following his own pet version of religion.

Warren Jeffs was a classic menaceter in that he used fear of the "Great One" to pressure his congregation to do his selfish and often-illegal bidding.

noterday

Opposite of "yesterday", so it must mean "tomorrow". Oh, right --- of course it does --- it's spelled a lot like, "not today", so it must mean a subsequent day from the present one.

Or maybe "noterday" refers to the weekly 24 hours when all the "noters" perform their assigned clerical duties in a noter republic.

afillyation

Social/business association wif young female horses.

It's usually fine to let "boy" and "girl" horses hang out together for da first nine months or so, but then it's best to separate da genders into different pastures before da colts start "getting any ideas" due to said afillyations.

Suezcide

What a ship da size of da Evergiven should view da act of passing through da 120-mile-long canal in Egypt during rough conditions.

Ordinary-sized container-ships might be able to traverse da man-made waterway linking da Mediterranean and Red Seas in stormy weather, but a super-sized vessel's attempting said wave-buffeting crossing would likely be Suezcide!

Jeannieology

A family-tree study of da famous ethereal being whom Anthony Nelson "dreamed of".

Tany Nelson may indeed have "scored" by leading his lovely blonde being-in-a-bottle soulmate down the aisle, but other gorgeous-gal-craving dudes should not arbitrarily lose hope, since they could always try looking into said magic-powers-enhanced lady's Jeannieology, where they might possibly find other similarly-desirable female relatives whom they could marry themselves.
