QuacksO's definitions

perioddicals

Regularly-published reading-matter dat details da less-commonplace issues and events.
Rather than having separate sawdusty-dry magazines/newspapers and perioddicals, why not just mix in a bit of both types of news into one publication, so dat readers can feel moderately interested in said publication's content during da whole process of reading it from cover to cover?

tarmageddon

Any "messy" situation that you get into when sealing a roof, paving a roadway, etc.
Sarge had told Zero to "stay out of the street" --- due to its having been freshly re-coated that day --- when running an errand for him, but said buck-toothed clueless had naively assumed that his corpulent commanding-officer had merely been concerned about the welfare of his shoes; knowing that they were in fact just his old ratty ones rather than his good pair, said lanky low-IQ private therefore went ahead and squish-squashed through said sticky goo, anyway, and then made a terrible tarmageddon on the floor of the office upon his return, much to the horror of his aforementioned beefy-statured supervisor.

blessedimate

A "typically degree/number of occurrences under these particular circumstances" figure regarding whether "Da Great One" will favor you.
Da term "blessedimate" could also refer to how often dat you will get da standard verbal response after you sneeze; said percentage would depend on factors such as how many times per day dat you typically discharge your nasal-cannon, what portion of your waking hours you usually spend in da company of others, whether said fellow humans are comfy/familiar with voicing said comment, etc.

ferniture

Tables, chairs, beds, etc. dat are either made from dried-and-compressed plants with spiral-shaped fronds and fan-shaped leaves, or are carved with designs of said attractive leptosporangiates.
I detest having to use wipe-cloths and whisk-brooms, so I think "Ell Passo" on choosing ferniture, with its myriad of dust-collecting bulges and grooves. Flat/plain-surfaced wood is much easier to keep neat and tidy.

resussitate

To revive a comatose person by administering a dose of shrewd deductive reasoning, due to his having fainted from learning dat his favorite detective-themed TV show had been cancelled.
In da Sherlock Holmes story, "The Reigate Puzzle", Watson warns Holmes to take it easy and not stress his mind with crime-solving during a vacation-trip to da country; Holmes actually feels worse from mental inactivity, however, and so his solving a murder mystery in da local area is da only thing dat truly resussitates him.

farbitration

Court-wranglings regarding long distances.
Farbitration gets even more complicated if you hafta keep converting between standard and metric length-measurements --- i.e., miles or kilometers.

affidavid

The only so-called "proof" we have that the defeating of Goliath even took place.
I am not gonna just automatically/unquestioningly accept the truth of a "historic event" that supposedly happened millennia ago, just on the murky word of some half-baked affidavid!
