Cantonese

Cantonese is one of the languages spoken in China. It is not a dialect of the invented "Chinese language". It is a language itself, such as Mandarin. The only difference is that Mandarin is the official one, and Cantonese is not.
Luca: Hi, Zeke! what've you been up to?
Ezekiel: Oh, I've been studying a lot for my exam tomorrow
Luca: exam of what?
Ezekiel: Oops, I forgot to tell you that I took up Cantonese, which is a language spoken in China. It is not the official one, though.

This guy's a legit cannoisseur, you should see his collection of glass, flowers and concentrates - it's unreal.

You dab like a cannoisseur.

Those are some choice nuggets, cannoisseur grade.

That dispensary had a selection worthy of a cannoisseur.

Cantoning

To utterly and totally destroy the punchline of a joke so as to make it completely devoid of any sort of humerous value. Often, the act of CantonING (the verb form) is funny, because the person who catoned the joke often is not aware they have done so.

This term comes from the town of Canton in Central Illinois where people have a tendancy, due to life in such a provincial area, to miss high-brow humor and explain simple jokes with what they see as...jokes.
"He totally Cantoned that joke."

Example of Cantoning:
person "A": "This room smells like 15 kinds of ass."
person "B": "Yeah, almost like 20 kinds of ass!"

Example 2:

Person "A": "What's green and flies?"
Person "B": "Superpickle!"
*laughter ensues*
Canton person: "Yeah, hahaha, or super green bell pepper."
*everyone pauses and stares, looking awkwardly at one another*
Canton person: "Sorry, I work at Hy-Vee."

Cannock Chase High School

Commonly known as "The Acedemy For Our Community", CCHS boasts a whopping 11% pass rate for their A-Level examinations, along with gum-infested underdesks, toilets that have cigarette air fresheners, and a management system similar to that of the Zimbabwe economy ministry.
Whilst the image of the school is more important to the headteacher (who shares a name with the protagonist of an advertisement for a certain cleaning product), the place doesn't seem more appetising to prospective students and parents alike than the rear end of a monkey. If said students should be enforced by their parents to attend, they will be successfully be transformed into rude, chavvy delinquents who will stand less chance of gaining qualifications than a hobo.
University interviewer: "So, where did you graduate from?"
Student: "Cannock Chase High School."
University interviewer: "Lolwut."
