man die

What you need to make sure you always have your super heroes around.
A die is what is used to form steel into something strong and useful. Superman did not need one to be created, but mere mortals require a man die to replicate their heroes.

It took them many hours of careful grinding and polishing to create a man die capable of cloning their hero, Steve McQueen. But, even in the earliest stages, it was test-stamping out quite a remarkable version of Clint Eastwood, post Dirty Harry, just prior to Gran Torino.

knoll-it-all

A extremely arrogant, self-centered person who claims at every turn to know more about everything than anybody else in the world. To the point those who had to put up with him were known to wish for a small grassy mound and a couple of eager Cuban mercenaries.

Bob was an avid yet arrogant vintage car collector. His constant and annoying claims he was the expert on every 1963 Lincoln model made led to his being referred to as a knoll-it-all.

underdue

The state of any person on a project where the first date or time for a task has yet to occur.

While Bob was not the sharpest pencil in the drawer, he WAS always able to report his tasks as under control and underdue in project status meetings. He did this by providing excessively estimates for his portion of the work at planning time.

underdo

The complete lack of the ability to complete tasks with the normally accepted level of completeness from an average intellect. Ineffective. Lazy, but does actually perform small tasks on occasion.

Bob, despite many years of experience, was a complete failure at finishing jobs of a high quality. Instead, he would inevitably underdo even the simplest of tasks. He left so much to be completed by others and would always be underdue as well.

behearer

One who had the actual soundwaves enter their ear canal and become a signal to their brains. One who heard something first hand (first ear?) with no alterations induced by people who passed on their opinions of what was heard.

Beautiful music exists ONLY in the ear of the behearer What may be squeaks and squawks to you may be be the music of angels to another. Nothing can duplicate the music beheard live in a concert. And God said: “Behear what I say unto you for it’s vibrations shall bring you joy!

Tortal

Evolution gave man two weapons... a brain and a lawyer. Man has an insatiable desire to sue others for perceived or real damages inflected on them by their fellow man. We call one type of abuse a "tort", from the Latin "tortium"... a hurt, an injury or a wrong . One "tort" is just one category of abuse, one wrongful act out of all the acts you can sue for. If you protect your rights by suing, you are seen to be "tortal", one who is NOT be messed with, because you know how to fight back... you KNOW how to SUE!

Bob was one who did not suffer fools lightly. To say his perverse use of courts and the law satisfied his base tortal desires is an understatement of the most extreme kind. He sued his mother for not providing the necessities of life.... IN THE WOMB! He even wanted to sue Google for NOT knowing who killed Jimmy Hoffa, even when he politely asked Alexa to help find out. It was Bob who first came up with "O.o.o,h.h., I love tortals!"

Autovile

Any person who has spent enough money on a car that he/she becomes unbearably prejudiced whenever conversing about cars.
Alternate: A person standing alone being an absolute jerk.

I find that, at parties, when I try to talk about various great cars that an autovile will inevitably steal the conversation by claiming he has tried them all and ended up in an audience} so privileged that I have to leave, lest I have to give him an expunation of my disgust.
