Hepatittis of the cunt
Refers to hepatitis in general. It is an antiquated expression of obscure origin. It's not well known what the cud part is. It seems very out of place. Indeed, HEPA means liver. Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver, not any kind of genitals. However, it can be sexually transmitted. So that loosely connects it to the word cunt. The additional T in hepatittis is a mispronunciation by lay people who weren't well versed in medical terms. So what is known about the expression is that there were at least two drifts from its original form. Indeed it was like a game of telephone. Now it is regarded as a very shocking phrase using the word cunt. What's more, it makes no distinction about a person's gender. Men and women alike can contract hepatittis of the cunt
I cannot go in that public bathroom. The toilets are filthy. That'll give you hepatittis of the cunt.

green warrant
TDO or temporary detention order. Green warrant was used in parts of the US of A for when a person, perhaps because of a psychiatric disturbance, posed a threat to oneself or others and it is an order for involuntary admission to a psychiatric institution, or as some might say, a hoo hoo hotel.

Smut
Sexually explicit content. It can be stories, porn, tv shows and movies, with varying degrees of sexual content. It is a pretty subjective term. People may disagree on whether a mild innuendo constitutes smut or not. But over time mild content was considered less and less smutty. But hardcore pornography and x rated movies remain smutty. In high school, and you may joke if you want, I was offended by ancient Greco Roman statues in the history books and called it smut. The teacher said it was not. The word smut in this definition was attested to in 1983 in the tv show Mama's Family. Main character Thelma, (Vicki Lawrence) didn't approve of smut and used the term in the first episode and periodically throughout the series run. However it can be seen in later episodes she still frowns on it but no longer got so offended by very mild content.
Well how did this smut get into my house? You most certainly can not you're far too young to be reading that smut...
...it isn't smut Thelma. The section the child read was taken totally out of context...
...if I'd have known that trash was being written up in that studio I would've put a stop to it a long time ago.

Joyces
Plural of joist is joists. Due to the similarity with the mostly girls' given name, some people dumb it down, by humour or perhaps ignorance, and say joyce/joyces.
What size steel joyces I need for my floors and ceilings? I'm using steel and masonry to build my house?

Gobbledygook
Nonsense talk, meaningless language, something said or written in an overly complex, incomprehsible or incoherent way.
Apparently the first known attestation was in a memo by US Representative (Texas) Maury Maverick dated March 30, 1944, banning "gobbledygook language". Apparently coined in imitation of the sounds made by a turkey.
Mr. Maury Maverick was, incidentally, the grandson of lawyer and politician Samuel Maverick, whose behaviour regarding his cattle inspired the term maverick ("offbeat").
The date of the memo is also interesting, because it was four days following the birth of illustrious diva Diana Ross.
Another noteworthy use of the term gobbledygook was in Judge Judy's 60 Minutes interview in 1993, before she got her own show. She said that people who do the right thing are not afraid of her, saying that they are afraid if they come in and do the routine thing, which is to give her a lot of rhetoric and gobbledygook. It is therefore, quite possible, that the word may have been heard on the original Judge Judy, and possibly Judy Justice. Judge Judy was also born 1942, making her a baby whenever Maverick used the term gobbledygook in the aforementioned memorandum.

Ugly
Rude, mean, exhibiting poor manners. This definition is old school. It was often used by older folks correcting children who are, well, being ugly. This definition hasn't anything to do with one's physical appearance. However it can be used more generally, like talking about a person who cussed you out, talking ugly to you. Another example is when you have to tell something the ugly truth, like saying " I don't mean to be ugly but..."
Then there's of the definition of not being considered aesthetically appealing, repulsive
Redd Foxx came up with all kinds of jokes on Sanford and Son, his character Fred Sanford firing off incessant remarks about Esther, being ugly. It has become a staple, especially in African American humour in TV and movies, for example Madea's brother Joe talking about a battery acid chemical peal to scrub all that ugly off her face.

Don't hit your sister, brother, etc. That's ugly.
I don't mean to be ugly, but you shouldn't be ugly towards people like that
God don't like ugly (in the sense of not treating others right)
Redd Foxx: Vengeance is mine, and ugly is yours.

a time or two
Loosely means once or twice. Also expressed as a time or 3, a time or 4. It means that something done happened at least once but could have happened a few, but not many times. Its kind of similar to saying a couple, with couple literally being 2 but it may be 3 or 4, but not many
