microcynophilia

A devastating psychological disease in which the sufferer mistakes the likes of chihuahuas and dachshunds for actual dogs. In severe cases, the sufferer may even prefer the company of such animals. Female microcyniphiles may even carry them around in their purses.

If a person prefers dogs whose life expectancy is higher than their weight, than he or she may be suffering from microcynophilia.

The best treatment for micrcynophilia is a nice large dog, such as a golden retriever, great Dane, or St. Bernard.
I broke up with my girlfriend after I saw her carrying a teacup chihuahua in her purse; she never told me she had microcynophilia.

genioramus

In general, someone or something having the qualities of a genius and an ignoramus. Specifically, it may mean one of the following:

1) Someone who is very intelligent but who lacks tact and common sense. Someone who is book-smart but who has poor social skills.

2) An intellectual person who lacks the communication skills to articulate his or her knowledge in a sophisticated or even coherent manner.

3) Someone who sometimes seems very smart, and at other times very stupid.

4) A person with great intellectual potential who squanders his or her mental gift for the sake of popularity or convenience.

5) An intelligent person who uses his or her gift inappropriately. Someone who is smart, but not smart enough to stay out of trouble, or who uses his or her gift to get into trouble. For example, a dog who knows how to open doors or drawers to get at food, or knows how to root through a trash can without spilling it.
My dog knows enough to open the cupboard door, slide open the lid to the bread box, and open the bag of bread without knocking anything onto the floor, but he's not smart enough to stay out of trouble in the first place. He's such an genioramus!

college diet

A diet that consists in approximately one meal a day. This meal is often of little or no nutritional value, and may be fast food or even a bag of chips from a vending machine, eaten while sitting in class waiting for the prof to arrive.

The college diet can be employed for a number of reasons, chief among these are a lack of funds with which to purchase food, or a lack of time in which to prepare and eat a balanced meal. Lack of desire or perceived need to eat because of side effects from ADD medicine or other sources is also a cause.

Weight loss is inevitable when the college diet is combined with the natural daily exercise one gets from walking from class to class carrying a heavy backpack.
I have no time to eat in college; I'm on the college diet.
