consensus science

The first and last refuge of the clueless. Essentially an oxymoron, since the mechanisms of "consensus" (in the sociological sense) and the methods of science are mutually exclusive.

Consensus science teaches us that the sky is going to fall.

skeptibunker 

A coined term, joining the words "skeptic" and "debunker." It is used chiefly by paranormalists in the pejorative sense, to describe individuals who are skeptical of paranormalist views.

I wish all these skeptibunkers would just shut up and get with the program - the Space Brothers are coming, and that's a fact!

coulee 

A dry canyon eroded by Pleistocene floods that cut into the lava beds of the Columbia Plateau in the western United States, the walls of which may resemble the Mesas common to the U.S. desert southwest. Grand Coulee Dam, in Eastern Washington, once the largest dam in the world, is named after the "Grand Coulee" which stands nearby.

If you ever visit Grand Coulee Dam, stay overnight in Electric City and be sure to catch the colored lightshow on the spillways after dark.

guilty pleasure 

Keeping a secret collection of ABBA and Carpenters and listening to their albums when no one else is around.

I know it's a guilty pleasure, but those Swedish Babes in ABBA are my best girls.
