QuacksO's definitions

Lee Iacroaka

Da "CEO of Death" who infamously pioneered such life-ending debacles as da "fireball Ford" and inexcusable delays in adding airbags to late-20th-century vehicles, and who had to beg Congress for bailout money to prevent Chrysler from kickin' da bucket.

Too bad dat a wicked sorcerer didn't turn Lee Iacroaka into a harmless frog to simply live out his life in da bayou; instead, he was allowed to remain da "prince" of da American auto-manufacturing world, and thus caused countless deaths and other extreme suffering.

phenolmenon

A unique property/characteristic of a petroleum-based compound used to synthesize plastics.

One phenolmenon of printed-circuit-board material is that it can withstand moderate heat, so it is ideal for applying copper-foil traces to be soldered to for mounting electronic components.

writ of execution

What the hot-tempered Queen of Hearts would have needed to actually chop off the heads of any of her subjects whom she happened to be displeased at.

Since the King of Hearts quietly told all of the condemned croquet-players, "you are all of you pardoned", it seems fairly doubtful that he would actually have scribed out a writ of execution in any instance, especially if it was merely because his wife the Queen wanted it so.

milk maid

A lovely fair-complexioned rosy-cheeked country-girl who milks cows on a dairy farm, and whom all da lustful guys in da coimmunity want to "milk".

I helped da milk maid to collect da morning's cow-juice in exchange for her being a "cow" to me afterwards --- i.e., letting me "milk her" while she was straddling da milking-stool.

Homeropathy

Da practice of trying to get someone to "learn to like" ancient Greek poetry by making him read small "doses" of it at a time.

I deeply resent being "force-fed" ideas or literature dat I detest, so practicing Homeropathy on me is only gonna turn me away from said insipidly-intolerable text even more.
