Refers to members of the less-affluent sector of mall-customers who merely wish to purchase regular groceries and/or household products in bulk, but who do not buy enough yearly volume to justify paying the exorbitant "membership fee" that the "big box" stores like Sam's Club charge. These limited-income folks therefore discreetly approach "enrolled" club-members who have either just arrived at the store or are currently pushing their carts around the aisles, and quietly ask them if they could please also purchase the merchandise that the indigent people want along with the items on their own shopping lists, and then afterwards they all meet back up outside in the parking lot where there are no prying eyes from the store's staff, and the grateful low-income families carefully go over the obliging club-members' store-receipts to total up the costs of the "additionally-purchased" items, and then reimburse the members for the appropriate amounts in cash.
Being a secret shopper can indeed be a great way to save on household-staple items; just watch out for Sam's Club chiselers, however.

Pronounced "yock", it combines the words YACK and TALK, and refers to the act of just babbling endlessly without much meaningful/legitimate content.
Radio listener, irritably switching off a live interview of a politician bragging about all the supposed "progress" he's made in his still-squalid jurisdiction: Okay --- enough of that BS... got better things to do than listen to HIS yalk for the next two hours!

Refers to a static-electricity-prone outhouse-throne, whereby if you move around too much on the seat in an effort to squeeze out all the poop, the friction of your clothing rubbing on the wood/plastic/porcelain may cause a spark that detonates the accumulated methane in the pit underneath you and explosively goes off like a cannon, forcibly ejecting you out through the roof of the outhouse, That's why some outhouses are built so tall, to give you somewhat of a "buffer zone" overhead so that hopefully the force of the blast will be sufficiently dissipated before it propels you very high.
City slicker, looking disgustedly at the super-primitive outhouse at his country-cousin's out-in-the-sticks property: Hey, what's with the mattress duct-taped to the ceiling and the clamshell-hinged roof -panels???
Country cousin: Oh, that's just in case the ejection seat goes off unexpectedly... this wire and wrist-strap is to hopefully dissipate static electricity build-up sufficiently, though... you put it on when you're poopin', and take it ff again when you're done.

Since da former Mrs. Humphrey Bogart was such a strong proponent of women's rights, said famous Liberal-Party actress might have had to do some major 'weeding of da ranks" --- or at least instigate a robustly-potent gender-fairness-training program --- if she'd assumed a "local Lauren forcement" role, since not all of da deputies under her control might have been similarly equality-minded.
