dadjustment

Careful tweaking dat Mom asks her male spouse to perform on a child whom she either cannot seem to reform herself, or feels dat approaching said offspring from masculine perspective might be more appropriate and/or effective.

Da term "dadjustment" could also refer to any of da assorted "learn how to be a proper gentleman" reformations dat Maggie was always trying to accomplish wif Jiggs (usually wif little or no success, naturally!).

voluntear

Refers to either:
(1) Work performed for free because some tearful moocher came "bawling 'n' blubbering" to you with some "poor poor pitiful me" sob-story about being in an emergency with no money to pay anyone to help him get out of it, or
(2) Work performed for free that absolutely "bores you to tears".

That old miser on his fancy estate has been snookering soft-hearted dim-wits into helping him for free for years now, but I hear that a lot of them have finally gotten wise to him --- zheeeesh, how many naive-minded voluntears does he think actually exist in his local area???

triple-f greeting

Stands for "Fake Fist-Fight" greeting, and denotes the playful-macho act of two best buds joyfully saying hello by grinningly taking a few wild swings at each other, but of course never having any of the flailing punches actually "land"; both greeters purposely "swing wide" so that they safely miss each other every time.

An alternative to the triple-f greeting --- often practiced by sturdy-figured tomboys --- is to take huge "sweeping" kicks in each other's directions, while simultaneously trying not to topple over backwards themselves. Both of these actions may seem fun and "free-spirited", but there is always a definite risk of real injury with them; I prefer simple hugs and handshakes myself.

elimbinate

To use wood-cutting tools to get rid of one or more unwanted tree-branches.

Beavers are good "elimbinaters", too --- what did the beaver say to the tree as he was dragging away a chewed-off branch? "It's been nice gnawing you."

heynous crime

How overly-strict/proper parents view/label a child's saying a less-than-ultra-polite/dignified greeting/interruption-word.

A child's merely forgetting to use the term, "Excuse me" or "Hello" is hardly a "heynous crime" --- at most, you should just reply, "Hey is for horses", and then be done with it!

earrigation

Da act of copiously rinsing yer auditory canals with warm water to flush out da dried BS dat deceitful/verbose gum-flappers have deposited there.

One would do well to avoid paying attention to gossipy or loquacious individuals (foam-rubber noise-plugs can be unobtrusively/invisibly utilized for this purpose) to begin with, since frequent earrigation can eventually create soreness in said tender tunnels.

constipaytion

Tongue-in-cheek reference to a "tightwad's" significant reluctance to "release da goods" at da expected times.

Ethan Couch claimed "affluenza" as da excuse for his irresponsible behavior, but then he had a major case of "constipaytion" when it came to actually answering for his misdeeds!
