Keuregglect

Keuregglect: a portmanteau (blend) of the words "Keurig" (the famed K-cup coffee machines) and "neglect" (carelessness, lack of attention to). Examples of Keurigglect include: 1.) never-changing the residual water in the tank so that eventually this water becomes viscious and germy, or 2.) leaving the spent K-cup in the holder after use. ("koo-reh-GLEKT")(n, v)(adj: Keurigglectful "koo-reh-GLEKT-ful")

The teachers' lounge Keurig had a nasty, moldy K-cup stuck in the holder because someone in a moment of Keuregglect left their K-cup in there on the last day of school and there it sat, mouldering, all summer. That was really Keurigglectful.

beericebaitgroc

BeerIceBaitGroc (beer-iys-BAYt-grock)(n): A phrase printed --occasionally hand-painted-- on placards or signage at rural American community markets meaning "we sell beer, ice, bait, and groceries." Portions of the phrase may be split up among several lines of text, for instance, "BeerIce" on the first line (with or wihout spaces) and "BaitGroc" on the second. If being spoken in sarcasm, the "groc" must be pronounced as spelled: "GROCK" (like "crock") and never "GROSS" (as might be implied from it being a shortened form of "groceries"). Subdivisions of the phrase may serve as shorthand for the whole, i.e. BeerIce may be used alone, as may BaitGroc.

"Heya Honey, I'm gonna' go down to the campground store for BeerIceBaitGroc --maybe get some bread and Bud Light."

Targetorb

Targetorb: the distinctive orb-shaped waist-high anti-vehicle bollards installed around the entry doors of Target stores --as compared to the plain concrete-filled pipes typical of other stores' bollards. Targetorbs are usually painted red. ("TAHR-geh-TORB")(n)

The Targetorbs outside Target are kinda cute and every time Bily sees a Targetorb, he wants to climb on it and have his picture taken. Perhaps that's their hidden purpose.

deodorugget

any clump of deodorant which somehow comes into existence and hangs in one's armpit hair, sometimes to detach and fall down a shirt or self-sprinkle out of one's sleeve. Such a fallen deodorugget, in the manner of meteor/meteorite, may be called a deodoruggetite.

(portmanteau word blend of "deodorant" and "nugget")

(n)("dee-OH-dur-UGG-et")

What's this white crap on the rug? Oh gross, it's a deodorugget someone stepped on --nasty!

In the shower, Eric was shocked at the number of deodoruggets he discovered clinging to his armpit hair. This led to metaphysical musing about whether the solar system or indeed the whole universe might really just be deodoruggets rolled up in the armpit of some giant cosmic being.
