deuterostome

Deuterostomes (taxonomic term: Deuterostomia; from the Greek: "second mouth") are a superphylum of animals. They are a subtaxon of the Bilateria branch of the subregnum Eumetazoa, and are opposed to the protostomes. Deuterostomes are distinguished by their embryonic development; in deuterostomes, the first opening (the blastopore) becomes the anus, while in protostomes it becomes the mouth.

There are four living phyla of deuterostomes:

Phylum Chordata (vertebrates and their kin)
Phylum Echinodermata (starfishes, sea urchins, sea cucumbers, etc.)
Phylum Hemichordata (acorn worms and possibly graptolites)
Phylum Xenoturbellida (2 species of worm-like animals)

"That asshat! He is an undeveloped deuterostome!

dexteronormativity 

The subtle and harmful assumption of right-handedness in a person. A dexteronormative person might exclaim in surprise at the realisation that somebody is left-handed and draw attention to it in a way that would be ridiculous if it was to a right-handed person. This can lead to the left-handed person feeling "othered", which can be very damaging to their sense of self.

Dexteronormativity has also lead to a severe lack of representation for left handed people in the media, with left-handedness only ever being featured as a personality quirk in a character.

The use of "sinister" to refer to something that is menacingly different is a symptom of todays sinistrophobic culture.

"Oh my God! You're left handed! That is so weird!"
"That's dexteronormativity!"

dexterise

To wrap, cover a room or other item entirely in clear plastic.

(Based upon a popular television series, Dexter. Where the serial killer covers a room from ceiling to floor with clear plastic prior to killing his victim.)

Because I will be sanding plaster and painting this weekend, I need to dexterise the room.

texterous

A person that is particularly DEXTEROUS at sending TEXT messages, preferably using only one, or at most two, thumbs. These people can send out messages at seemingly unbelievable speeds, amazing those around them with their deftness.

Chad was texterously churning out the messages - his thumbs were just a blur over his phone.

dextroseosis

a horrid disease which causes dna to be chemically unbalanced. due to the inbalance of dna our sex cells morph into emperor penguin sex cells. the disease can cause an invasion of aqueos solution inside the brain thus causing the brain to explode within months of contracting the disease. it is said that pickles hold this disease and anything they have ever touched also holds the disease. the only known cure is bubble tea or banana chocolate milkshakes.

As i was perusing through my nick nacks i accidently contracted dextroseosis by touching an old pickle.
