ignorami

Pseudo-intellectuals. So called because of their tendency to use stigmae, mandami, ignorami, omnibi, viri, operae, cauci, and other overuse of the "-us to -i, -a to -ae, -um to -a" classical rule.

If every word ending in -us becomes -i, is the plural of bus bi?

reality-based community

Those who put their trust in the facts, as opposed to those who rely on faith. A senior White House aide spoke derisively of the "reality-based community" to reporter Ron Suskind, and the meme spread rather quickly among those who don't think you can get pregnant from masturbation.

Just about anyone who doesn't like Bush.

Shaman

A Mongolian priest. Oftentimes used by ethnocentric Westerners to describe the entire planet under the assumption that all "primitive" traditions are identical.

My blue-eyed Cherokee-princess-descended shaman charges $500 for a Sundance.

whoopass

A can "opened up" on someone annoying you. Also comes in permutations of diet, caffeine-free, vanilla, all kinds of fruit flavoring which doesn't really taste like fruit, half-calorie, invisible, Dr. Whoopass, energy-formulated, and the New Whoopass, the last being hated by everyone so the company can make millions when people want to open up a can o Whoopass Classic.

Don't make me open a can o' whoopass!
