Hey bartender, I'd like a Sidecar served in a turkey baster, I'm in the mood for a procktail!

simulbation

An engineering activity, where a system is simulated using software that encourages repeated iterations of the simulation. The simulation activity is its own reward, and may never result in a completed design.
Hey, are you ever going to finish that project, or are you just going to keep simulbating it? I'm tired of this endless simulbation, just finish the design!

Huffaloaf

Huffing bread, best done when the bread is freshly baked and still warm. The most common technique is to bag the bread, seal the opening of the bag around the face in the same fashion as a horse's feed bag, and take long slow inhales to enjoy the bready bouquet.
Overhead at San Francisco Airport: "Hey, stop huffaloafing that sourdough, we have a flight to catch!"
