second-generation noise

Refers to a giggly "imitation" racket dat a small child gleefully makes after hearing a grownup undertake a jarringly-loud activity, such as hammering, drilling, sawing, filing, etc.
Classic examples of "second-generation noise" would be if a youngster watches his parent or a visiting neighbor driving nails and then starts happily yodeling, "Bam-bam-bam-bam!" while pounding his fist on anything within reach around the house, or hollers, "ZzhEEEh-ukhkhahw, zzhEEEh-ukhkhahw, zzhEEEh-ukhkhahw, zzhEEEh-ukhkhahw..." (accompanied by vigorous back-and-forth motions with his forearm against various objects) after he witnesses someone raspingly slicing up boards or plywood with a crosscut saw.

Rushia

Da country which comprised da major portion of da former USSR, where everyone is constantly in a "hurry 'n' flurry".
Classic "Rushia" joke from the '70's:
Jim: Tim, hurry up --- we're gonna be late!
Tim: I'm rushin', I'm rushin'!
Jim: That's strange --- I thought you were German.

"entire dictionary" day

A wearily-humorous term to describe a long strenuous exhausting day that literally begins and ends with the very first and very last words in the dictionary, respectively --- you frenetically "hit the ground running" with a wailing whoop of haste and/or alarm ("Aaaaaaaaaaahhhh!!!") at the crack of dawn, and then never stop your "headlong dash" till you collapse into bed that night ("Zzzzzzzzzzzz").
Last weekend I volunteered to host the entire youth-camp group on assorted activities and outings --- it was definitely an "entire dictionary" day which I would not be physically or emotionally capable of repeating very often, but the youngsters were all smiling and happily-grateful to me afterwards, and so that made it all worth it.

slumber-hug

Where the presence of the person you're embracing feels so relaxing/reassuring that you actually doze off while you two are clasping each other.
It's a sure sign that a girl totally likes and trusts you if she falls asleep in your arms after a few minutes of canoodling, but you know that she's REALLY into you if she actually views a ten-second embrace as a slumber-hug and goes totally limp halfway through it, and so you then have to gently lay her down on a couch or bed and let her "sleep it off" for half an hour!

comPATible

A good romantic match due to both partners' enjoying soft gentle "palm-lovies".
Some chicks have painfully-sensitive spots on their bodies, such as their backs, shoulders. arms, etc., and so you will need to keep these "off-limits" areas in mind when giving a cutie affection wif your hands, if you want her to consider you a comPATible soulmate.

Camp-a-Bellow

Great "fun activities" youth-establishment to send all of your noisy brats for the summer, because of the delightful lack of "stuffy discipline" that needlessly demands quiet and meekness at all times --- at this joint, kids are allowed to yell and shout all they want. Located on a well-known island off the coast of New Brunswick, between Canada and the U.S. Deceased Prez F.D.R. had a summer cottage built on that same Island --- maybe he enjoyed hollering sometimes, also.
Harassled young mom: I just can't think how I'm gonna be able to stand having my fractious "holy terrors" underfoot for the whole summer.
Best friend (also a frazzled mother): Well, you could just send them to Camp-a-Bellow --- let 'em blow off a little steam so they'll be calmer come school-time.
