eating mode

The way a human feels when his or her body is receptive to food.
Individuals are not always in the eating mode, they are not always receptive to food. For example, if something or someone frightens a person, they enter the flight or fight mode and their stomach, brain, and body will not want to eat any food. Interesting, it is that in the flight or fight mode, which most people call the "fight or flight" mode, I think I would be open to drinking, at least water, to be able to fight or run away better. Humans are not airplanes, it may be best to call it the "fight or run away (or flee mode)."

fight or run away 

The correct way to express the term"fight or flight," because human beings do not literally fly.
The fact that flight rhymes with fight may be why the term "fight or flight" is used. As clever and useful as it is, it is not factual. Thus,"fight or run away" might be a better way to express that unique state.

Inverted Syllable English 

This new, experimental, and highly creative type of English relocates and may even slightly change one or more syllables in a word, term, clause, or sentence to achieve an effect based on what a new word sounds like.
"Prefect Political Resentapration" is just one an example of Inverted Syllable English. Different effects are achievable depending on which syllables are moved because the new word which has had the position of one or more of its syllables changed might sound like an existing word. For example, to me, the word "resentapration" sounds like some kind of strange amphibian creature or some kind of strange action. The prefix, "resent" sounds like "resentment." And "pration" sounds like "aparition," predatory, preparation, apparition, etc.

Writing-aided Conversation

Writing down in a notebook or a computer the key things the person one is talking with and the key things one says, things one will say, and/or other things.
Writing-aided conversation is often more productive.

disguised slavery 

Not imprisoning slaves, but letting them live anywhere they choose, knowing that the need to feed themselves will force them to find a job, and that their need to find a better job will get them to attend school. Then hiring them, paying them a regular salary, giving them health insurance so they will not break down, and giving them 2-weeks vacation so they will rest and recuperate. Then have the TV ads convince them to buy a car to get to work, a house to live in, and other things to live better, to all along exploiting their labor as the masters did on the plantations. Disguised slavery is the spine of a system called 'human farming' and is sinonimous with 'salaried slavery.' Though some see it as unfair, it may be the only way for society to function and thrive.
Though in reality they are salaried slaves and victims of the 'human farming' system, convinced by the media and their friends—because they echo what the media tells them, my neighbors diligently drive to work and back home from Monday to Friday and rest on the weekend to prepare for another round of 9 to 5. Thought disguised slavery is an imperfect lifestyle because it's victims—or if you see their lifestyle in a positive light you may want to call them practitioners or participants instead—are not free to fully develop themselves because their time is taken producing goods or serving clients. As imperfect as the disguised slaver system may be, it appears to be the only way for society to operate and thrive.
