dieselpunk

Dieselpunk is an art style and subculture that blends the aesthetics / pop culture of the 1920s - 1950s with today. To dieselpunks, the "diesel era" was a time defined by warfare, Art Deco, pulp heroes, swing music, and noir gum shoes.

Its akind of like steampunk, except with internal combustion, because steampunk wasn't dirty enough.
Me and John saw a group of cosplayers in a steampunk show that didn't look victorian at all. They wore fedoras, goggles, ww2 gear and retro-futurist tech, but from a different timeline. Turns out they were dieselpunks

Dessertification 

When you slurp banana pudding out of your partner's anus.
When I used the Dessertification position on your Mom, she mooed like a cow!

suckin diesel 

From a Northern Irelander:

"Suckin Diesel" should only be used to describe a situation which has recently improved.

The situation should have been so bad that little or no progress had been made for some time. It should only be said after an event or action which allows further progress to be made.
John: What are you doing Dave?
Dave: Trying to get my computer to work.
John: Been at it long?
Dave: yeah about 3 hours mate, I can't seem to get it switched on. Any ideas?
John: Have you tried plugging it in and flicking the switch on the wall??

(Dave plugs PC in and flicks switch. PC starts to boot up.)

Dave: "Ahhh...now we're Suckin Diesel!!"

disdegurgitated 

Temporarily out of whack. Similar, but not quite the same as discombobulated.
"Sorry, but can you call back a little later? I just woke up disdegurgitated from my pet monkey sliding pieces of banana up my nose."
