lotion chimp

A particularly low-order minion -- qualified to perfrom only the most mindless tasks, on the order of a trained chimpanzee smearing suntan lotion on its reclining master.

I had a morning meeting, so I had my lotion chimp come over and let the electrician in.

Universal donor

In the proofreading business, a document that is full of typographical errors, aka, “typos.” The expression is a play on the concept of the so-called universal blood donor: type O being the blood type that can be donated and transfused to anyone regardless of their blood type, a “universal donor” document is … full of Type Os.

Chad, take this universal donor back to your desk and fix all the !@#$% misspellings and punctuation errors, jeez.

Circumcoition

A ten-dollar word for "screwing around," i.e., wasting time -- circum (around) + coition (having sex).

"OK, folks, enough of this circumcoition -- let's get this goddam truck unloaded."

Fecocephaly

Shitheadedness; having shit for brains. From feco- (feces) + -cephaly (pertaining to the head).

Professor Hull's thesis is not merely obviously wrong, but reaches new heights of fecocephaly. Kudos to the tenure system for providing him the continued opportunity for such ascents.

iNert

The state of being so engrossed in one's device (iPhone, iPad or equivalent) that one remains oblivious to all surrounding activity and communication and to the social norms that once governed them. Accordingly, the Law of iNertia states that a person engaged with his or her device will remain so engaged, regardless of any forces acting upon them to achieve a change of state. (The Law of iNertia thus operates contrary to the Law of Inertia, according to which a body at rest will remain at rest and a body in motion will continue moving with a constant velocity unless acted upon by an external non zero force.)

"Hon, did you ask Mike to take out the trash?"

"Yeah, but he was iNert. I'll try after dinner."
