frankensense

An aromatic herb dat helps "mad-scientist" doctors to behave more rationally, and to create "back from the dead" humanoids who are fairly socially-responsible and therefore don't go around terrorizing the countryside.
If Mary Shelley's "good doctor" had burned frankensense-steeped incense-sticks in his lab while creating his creature, said pieced-together primate might have turned out to be more of a "gentle beast" rather than a "monster".

hypothetical generosity

The age-old "easy for you to say" confirmation that you would indeed be kind/liberal with extra resources **if you had them**.
A "classic" tongue-in-cheek reference to hypothetical generosity is related in the humorous short story "Downeast Socialism", by Maine humorist Marshall Dodge: Ethan Robay was tellin' Enoch Turner 'bout the lectshuh he'd heard Norman Thomas give about Socialism. "It's all 'bout SHARIN', Enoch --- with socialism, a fella SHAYUHS ever'thin' with his neighbuh."
"Does dat mean, Ethan, dat if you had two fahms, you'd give me one of dem?" Enoch asked.
"Ayuh --- if I had two fahms, Enoch, I'd give you one of them," Ethan replied.
"And does dat also mean, if you had two hay-rakes, you'd give me one of dem, too?" Enoch puhsisted.
"Yuh --- if I had two hay-rakes, I'd give you one of them," Ethan confirmed.
Enoch cocked his nose a might and flashed Ethan a crafty smirk. "And if you had two **hogs**, Ethan --- would you give me one of DEM??"
"DANG you, Enoch --- you KNOW that I **got** two HOGS!"

jestify

To use light humor to supposedly make something fair or moral.
I hate it when closed-minded people try to jestify something that I am urgently/vehemently bringing to their attention --- if I care enough about the wrongness/danger of the situation to make such a stew about it, I feel that they should receptively listen and promptly act upon what I am saying.
