culinarilingus

The act of loving your meal so much you lick the plate clean.

squittance

A tiny squirt of something, esp. used in cooking. More than a drop, but less than a dollop.
"Hey, how much of this hot chilli sauce do I need to put in the mixture...?"

"Just a squittance. Not too much, ok?"

inductrination

Inductrination (n.)
Starting a new job, you're required to attend a one-day 'induction' into the company, and it ends up being an exercise in brain-washing new recruits and indoctrinating them into believing that they are now working for the most awesome business in the universe.
Me: "Hey Dylan, how did Induction Day go at Googbook...?"
Dylan: "Oh wow, it's the best company IN THE FRICKEN WORLD dude, the employee benefits are some of the best, offering opportunities for career growth, work that positively impacts the human race, and innovative culture. We have bicycles and electric cars to get staff to meetings, gaming centers, organic gardens, and eco-friendly furnishings, on-site physicians, nurses, medical services, and health care coverage, and we positively impact society with the applications and technology, which benefit the entire human race. Oh, and of course there's the amazing pro..."
Me: "Whoa man, whoa...! Looks like you've been totally brain-washed in a single day. Forget 'induction', that was a goddamn 'inductrination'...!!

puburbs

The inner, older suburbs around the central part of a large city, most of which contain a large number of small hotels or pubs. As opposed to the outer suburbs, which often have just a few 'supersize-me' mega-hotels.
Me: "Hey, wanna hang out in the puburbs tonight?"
Sian: "Yeah, let's go to West End."

mapographic

Mapographic (n)

A map covering areas such as regions, states, countries, or even the entire world that conveys - using only graphics and minimal text - quite complex data in a very simple and understandable way.

It is essentially an 'infographic', but it is in the form of a map, showing the 'where' as well at the 'what'.
Manager: "Hey Bill, can we show all of the projects we're doing all over the country and all the outputs from each of them on one map...?"

Bill: "Yep, I can do that, and I can put it into a really great Mapographic, which will show everything, everywhere, all at once, and make it simple so everyone can understand..."

Manager: "Yes, that's what we want. Let's do that. That sounds awesome...!"

Retrezvous

(1) A meeting with someone in your past, at a location significant to you both; or (2) A secret meeting with an ex, pretty much for horizontal recreation

This word also has the added benefit of a strong linguistic alignment with 'deja vu' (hey, I've been here before...)
"Hi Claire, I know it's been a while, but I have to see you again. Please? I won't tell Amy if you don't tell Brad - can we have a little retrezvous at that hotel we used to go to in the city?"

Cheapsake

A tacky, inexpensive tourist souvenir. A crappy holiday keepsake.
"Hey, look at these little green fluorescent Eiffel Tower statues, they're only one Euro..."

"Oh, honestly Larry, you always buy the tackiest cheapsakes. Gaaaaahhh...!!
