high-knocktane fuel

Supposedly premium gas that is actually just crappy-a** petrol that causes your engine to run really rough and lack power.

I wonder if the real reason that the dude who was driving the Hot Rod Lincoln experienced a lot of piston-pinging after his race with the Cadillac was that he was using high-knocktane fuel, rather than his simply having run his engine too hard.

scullduggery

Less-than-honorable behavior regarding the paddling of a boat.

Races of canoes or rowboats are notorious for scullduggery; one of the most common subterfuges is to conceal an outboard motor on the boat to make it go faster. Be sure to bring along a noisy boombox to help cover the tell-tale "putt-putt" sounds, though, unless you use a souped-up electric trolling-motor that runs virtually silent.

asspirin

A special form of acetylsalicylic acid that you ingest to help reduce aches caused by the a**holes in your life, and/or to help you to better deal with anyone who is a royal pain-in-the-a**.

I wonder if asspirin could also help relieve the smarting pains of humiliation you'd feel if you'd unwittingly made a total jacka** of yourself in public???

blessings from afar

Refers to where, after you sneeze loudly, someone located a long distance from you smilingly calls, "Bless you!"

Upon exiting a middle-aged friend's dusty workshop after visiting with him for a while, I let out a humongous, "Vwah-FWHOOF!", complete with an exaggerated "blasted off my feet from the explosion" high-jump. Another pleasant-natured dude who was mowing his lawn on the adjoining property cheerfully responded, "Bless you!", even though he was more than a hundred feet away. A small and "casual" gesture, to be sure, but I never forgot it --- there's just something special and memorable about blessings from afar.

injest

To "swallow" a joke.

While a person can normally injest to his heart's content with no worry about health-problems, one still needs to take care to "count calories" in the case of carbs-laden "corny" jokes.

routeen

A standard set of daily activities practiced by an adolescent.

As unstructured and undisciplined as the young folks of today are, I don't know if many of them even HAVE a bleepin' routeen! :P
