elephant in the room

n. A very large issue that everyone is acutely aware of, but nobody wants to talk about. Perhaps a sore spot, perhaps politically incorrect, or perhaps a political hot potato, it's something that no one wants to touch with a ten foot pole. Sometimes pink elephant in the room.

The degeneration of parental responsibility in this country is the elephant in the room, but no one in Washington wants to address it.

Repeatus Everythingus

n. Sub-species of Homo Sapiens. Characterized by their redundancy of vocal patterns, especially within a short period of time. May have a short memory or just a small vocabulary. I first heard my mom say it, but she probably got the idea from the Roadrunner and Coyote cartoons where the characters were described in such fashion (e.g. Acmeus Userus).

Come on, I know you know somebody who repeats things over again a second time.
