Presbytearian

A religion so boring dat you would actually cry from trying to suffer through a sermon.

I can't stand to sit though **any** church-meeting --- no matter what da denomination --- and so pretty much ANY sermon would feel like a Presbytearian service to me.

Robinson Caruso

Da famous shipwrecked sailor who went on to become an equally-famous opera singer.

I wonder if all of da "crude but super-nutritious" harvested-from-da-wild food dat Robinson Caruso dined upon during his long years on da deserted island was what boosted his health to da point dat he could sing so beautifully once he'd been rescued and gotten back to civilization?

marteeny

Da minuscule whistle-wetter dat da drunk sailor in "The Live Ghost" claimed he was gonna have when da captain gruffly asked him where he was going.

Knowing dat his "loose and lanky" underling was not capable of "libation-moderation" if he "went ashore", da captain impatiently brushed aside his claim dat he was just gonna have a "marteeny", and instead made said excessively-imbibing deck-swab stay aboard; he also commandeered Laurel and Hardy to keep watch on said liquor-lover to make sure dat he didn't leave. Said naive duo was easily duped, however, and so da wily whiskey-craving lout was able to sneak down da gangplank unseen, and get staggeringly soused, after all.

treeson

Refers to the first recorded act of scandalous political misbehavior committed by an American government official; it involved George Washington and a hatchet.

The tale about "little Georgie" and his hatchet is actually a myth, but is makes a good story, nonetheless. It is known, however, that Washington was guilty of far more "treesonous" acts (like mistreating his slaves and wrongfully jailing farmers) than merely being irresponsible with his lumberjack skills.

Tippycanoe

Refers to da "wobbly" footing dat U.S. Prez Harrison experienced during his term in office.

Both "Da Great W.H." and his grandson Ben were very unpopular as American presidents, so it appears dat da former's "Tippycanoe" status lived on in future generations!

wallopalooza

A super-impressive slap-upside-da-head.

Da Three Stooges sure gave each other some real wallopaloozas on many occasions.

Heavensinki

Da major coastal city in Finland dat's more pleasant than its "fire 'n' brimstone" counterpart.

If Helsinki and Heavensinki are exact opposites in overall nature, would Helfloati be somewhere in da middle? As in, da municipality is still somewhat like "da other place", but at least it's still bobbin' at da surface of da water instead of "heading to da bottom".
