Chiknees

Da nationality of Asian folks who practice da custom of respectfully "getting 50% down" --- i.e., bending your legs at da first joint, so dat you're halfway between standing and sitting on da ground.

I find dat emulating da Chiknees is rather awkward and physically demanding; a 45-degree bow, tip/doff of my hat, or a solemn handshake is more my style when reverently greeting someone.

Talko Bell

A "dieting" restaurant-chain where they serve you more "food for thought" --- i.e., interesting speeches --- than actual tummy-filling munchies.

Participating in da motor-mouthed activities at Talko Bell might indeed help you to cut back on meal-sizes, since you wouldn't have da chance to take bites of food very often, anyway.

Massachewsetts

Da New England state where Violet Beauregarde came from; kids elsewhere in the state have begun to emulate her disgusting chicle-chomping habit.

I hear that Wrigley's Gum is planning to open a new plant in Massachewsetts to keep up with the demand for their delicious minty products.

Calvin Act

A law dat states dat you can sneak off with a fellow human's toy animals and hold them for ransom.

Da Calvin Act may permit ransom-seeking absconding with a stuffed bunny, but da oppositely-worded --- i.e., extortion-FORBIDDING --- Hobbs Act (or in this case, maybe it should be spelled, "Hobbes") is da one dat Susie violated by absconding with said stuffed tiger. Dunno if a court would deal particularly harshly with Susie for her breaking said latter law, however, since her actions were merely done in an effort to get her own plaything --- "Mr. Bun" --- back from da former law's greedy-opportunist creator.

fibuciary

Someone who looks out for your best interests by making forked-tongues statements on your behalf.

A prime example of a fibuciary would be da notorious White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer's dispensing of "alternative facts"

attentative

Cautiously/hesitantly observant, cuddly and/or assisting, etc.

One should be very attentative around macho guys and feminists, since they often are fiercely independent.

Murphy's Mechanic's Law

Anything in your car that has gone wrong, will ""not"" go wrong when the mechanic is looking.

My high-beam dimmer--switch is faulty, yet when I took the car to the mechanic for troubleshooting, the switch worked perfectly for him! Typical Murphy's Mechanic's Law at work!
