consonantipation 

The withholding of consonants in words. This is especially true of a g after -in, as in "swimmin" instead of "swimming". Also very common is the h after t, as in "dat" instead of "that". It can be taken to an extreme as in "Prez Clin" instead of "President Clinton". Consonantipation is becoming more and more common as people get lazier and lazier with both spoken and written communication.

I coon't unnerstan a woid dat person sai. Severe consonantipation.

shadiot 

A contraction of "sun shade idiot", any person who puts their car sunshade in the front window even if the car is facing to the north (in the Northern Hemisphere- no evidence exists yet that this occurs in the Southern Hemisphere too).

Quite possibly they do it on purpose thinking that, even though it is daytime, the North Star is out there and it is bigger than the Sun. This excuse would not work in the Southern Hemisphere since they cannot see the North Star.

Three cars in the parking lot are evidently being driven by shadiots today.
