This web-page looks completely different from how it was a few months ago --- all I configure is dat it must have had a total overhaul or upgrade at some point since I last saw it.

Get the all I configuremug. A strong-alcoholic-beverage serving dat you order at a bar in steamed reaction to your having been unpaid/underpaid for one or more goods or services dat you'd supplied.
I had an idea for a possible improvement on da famous Joe Diffie song --- if da unfortunate "stiff" had been "stiffed" (i.e., not given da promised payment for some legitimate transaction dat he'd honorably fulfilled), maybe when da deceased guy's buddies "propped him up beside da jukebox" as he'd requested, they could have "put a STIFFED drink in his hand", so to speak --- i.e., they could have brought along however much cash of their own dat he'd been owed from said delinquency, and then wrapped-and-secured said paper currency around da liquor-tankard before placing it in his hand, so dat he could finally have "gotten closure" for da debt dat was owed him. Extra points if THEY THEMSELVES then went after da short-changing debtor in court on their passed-on friend's behalf, so dat they could have had their proxy-expenditure refunded.

Get the stiffed drinkmug. Thanks to his family's exceptional wealth and political influence, the young Ethan Couch may have temporarily been able to avoid being labelled as a juvenile declinkuent, but eventually he "went way to far" and thus ended up behind bars, even with his folks' legal finagling.

Get the juvenile declinkuentmug. Gonna try my luck at stream-angling, but I know dat it can be a long and boring ordeal, so I think I'll take along a couple of Mack Jigger albums to listen to.

Get the Mack Jiggermug. Pooh and his pals had been irritated by Tigger's incessant bouncing, but then they saw how forlorn he was after agreeing to just walk normally, and so they withdrew their hopposition, much to Tigger's relieved delight.

Get the hoppositionmug. Not to be confused with obsessive-compulsive disorder or obsessive compulsive personality disorder, this acronym refers to either of two mental/emotional conditions that involve an abnormal desire to occupy certain areas or socialize with certain individuals:
(1) An imperative need to have extensive contact with "the area's finest", obliging you to either frequently dial 9-1-1 or hang out for expended periods with the "people in blue" down at the local precinct (l.e., the "PD").
(2) A similar type of socially-clingy behavior, but involving an area-resident of or visitor to Delta City; the sufferer likes to hang out at the OCP building, maybe to chat with RoboCop or just to ride along with other staffpeople on the futuristic-designed super-long elevator from the ground floor to the glass-windowed board-room located dozens of floors up.

Get the OCPDmug. "Opening one's wallet/handbag" to convince someone to agree to your wishes; i.e., cash bribery. A usually-super-unwise practice nutritious for its use by grandparents and/or aunts/uncles to get da family's small fry to behave, submit to basic/routine/necessary/reasonable discomforts, delays, ordeals, etc., often causing said point-sized brats to become even more spoiled and expecting to always be rewarded for even minimal tolerance and socially-acceptable behavior.
I hear dat petty crime, lack of personal care, and other serious misbehavior among da teen population is of such epidemic proportions in some areas dat da authorities are actually resorting to purseuasion in their attempts to reduce said social indolence. Sounds to me like a mostly counterproductive choice of action, since handing out cash-payments as an incentive for simply "being good" will likely only further instill da "Why should I overly exert myself to practice moral responsibility merely because it's the correct thing to do?" mindset dat is already ingrained in said juvenile delinquents' lazy brains! Oh, don't get me wrong --- I am indeed all for rewarding good behavior, but not like THAT --- a healthier way would be to have it be a "delayed gratification" (i.e., something nice that they will receive a few years "down the road") incentive like a partial/full scholarship, lower auto-insurance rates, a break in property/income-taxes, being exempted from "snack-food tax", etc.
