hippo crates 

Huge sturdy packing-cases specially designed for humanely shipping large water-loving herbivores. Invented by the famous ancient philosopher.
Too bad Hippocrates wasn't born more recently, or his animal-transporting invention would have been much easier to create --- he could have just lined a number of modern large metal shipping-containers with foam-rubber, added fresh-air vents and some form of toilet-fixture, and voila! --- hippo crates.

lizard people from history 

If you look through the names of prominent people in the past century, you will find them --- be afraid, citizens... be **very** afraid...
Right off the bat, I can think of three examples of lizard people from history with "reptilian" names --- Leo Szilard (sure sounds a lot like "lizard" to me!), Salamander Rushdie, and Newt Gingrich! Dat's all da proof I need dat dey **do** exist and are indeed ruling --- and ruining --- our lives!

relizardgion 

The belief that lizard-people run the world (a nod of thanks to Simon Whistler from YouTube for his inadvertently giving me this idea by speaking of lizard-people and then in his next breath quipping that "considering how many people actually believe this, perhaps they should start their own religion").
The reason that relizardgion is so difficult to dismiss/disprove is that there are so many horridly-wrinkly and ugly people around that they can indeed have only descended from lizards, just like evolution is so difficult to dismiss because so many humans act so "crude 'n' primitive" that those particular individuals must indeed have descended from apes. :P

welding anniversary 

A recurring date which marks the day of the year that a lady met her future husband due to his having done welding for her.
Celebrating a welding anniversary is often a very satisfyingly-pleasant experience just in itself, of course, but it can also serve to further "weld" the bond that the couple feels for each other.

benefishiary 

A thieving bird, reptile, or mammal that swipes an angler's catch while his back is turned.
I always bring a large old-fashioned metal drink-cooler to store my catch in, so that some winged or four-legged meal-marauder doesn't become the benefishiary of my hard-won fillets!

aggravated assault

Where someone becomes so fed up with the infuriating actions of another person that he clobbers said aggravator.
If The Three Stooges had tried their assorted "swatting 'n' pummeling" monkeyshines today, they would have faced multiple charges of aggravated assault.

"junk" filter abuse 

Where you falsely tag one or more legitimate e-mails as "spam" merely because you'd prefer not to read the messages due to their containing unwelcome content, such as reminding you that you owe money, are responsible for performing certain arduous/unpleasant tasks, etc.
Practicing "junk" filter abuse may indeed prevent unwelcome e-mails from showing up in your inbox, but it merely "delays the inevitable"... the chickens are still gonna come home to roost eventually (i.e., your creditors and/or da cops are still gonna come knocking on your door in da end), but by then they will be "cackling mad" at your selfish/offhanded ignoring of them and their genuine issues with you, and so they will likely scatter poop and loose feathers all over you (i.e., deal with you a lot more harshly) when they finally arrive on your doorstep, rather than just placidly settling down in their stalls for the night, the way they probably would have if you had simply addressed their concerns in a timely/appropriate manner in da first place!
