sassparated

How you'll feel if either you get interacted with less than respectfully/seriously or da pub will only serve you a non-alcoholic drink.

20-year-old: I got totally sassparated when da bartender both eye-rollingly rejected da fake-ID card I'd shown him and then poured me a glass of root beer instead of da shot of whiskey I'd asked for.

Captain Kidde

Da infamous Scottish pirate-leader who made his fortune by setting fire to conquered ships and then extorting them for huge sums to bribe him to extinguish da flames.

I dunno if those puny wine-bottle-sized fire-extinguishers would be all dat effective on huge clippers or schooners dat were engulfed in flames --- Captain Kidde might have had to switch to da larger "Adultte" brand of extinguisher to properly put out said towering infernos.

bullavard

Animal-rescue volunteer: Every time I watch da small herd of horses dat I've nursed back to health robustly clomping together across da pasture, I feel like they're appreciatively applodding me (i.e., "Look how healthy we are now, thanks to you!") for all of my efforts on their behalf.

driverticulitis

An inflamed-intestinal disorder caused by spending too much time behind da wheel.

As pricey as gas is nowadays, a limited-income person would need to combine trips, walk, bike, take public transportation, or hitchhike or to complete many errands-running excursions so as not to go over budget for everyday traveling; you'd likely never motor around enough to get driverticulitis unless you were being paid to make longer vehicle-outings.
