professional idiot

In contrast to the rank-and-file "useful idiot" (typically a disposable agitator), a "professional idiot" earns a living satisfying regime objectives. Examples include teachers, scientists, economics, and journalists promoting establishment narratives, and shock jocks and controlled-opposition figures pushing fall-back propaganda (loudly-advertised phony deplatforming pogroms may be instituted against these latter figures with declining levels of interest in order to remind you, the rube, that they exist). The professional idiot is intensely adverse to actual productive work, and invariably gravitates to careers in government and its associated parasitic organizations, or to other roles permitting him to talk for a living.

The difference between a professional idiot and a traitor is that the idiot believes in the bullshit he spouts whereas a traitor is consciously aware of the hidden goals of the entity he supports or receives compensation from. That said, the line differentiating professional idiocy from treason is amorphous, and much apparent "idiocy" is simply a cunning ruse on the part of knowing agents of influence, so much so that, for the clearest picture, the prudent observer will invert Hanlon's Razor to read thus: "Never attribute to stupidity that which is adequately explained by malice."

"Paul Krugman is the quintessential professional idiot."

the second-oldest profession

Engineering.

The various religious texts record that in the beginning there was chaos, from which a God created the heavens and earth. That's a feat of engineering. God also said "let there be light" and there was light - a task which now universally falls to the electrical engineer.

But why, then, is engineering only the second-oldest profession? The oldest profession is lawyer. Who do you think created all of that chaos?

Profanese

(prop. n.) The primary language of New Yorkers. It stems from English, but consists of a fuckload more curses and profanity, though New Yorkers perceive them as everyday speech and are never offended. Foreigners to this day still can't understand this.

to a New Yorker "Can you teach me Profanese?"
New Yorker: "YOU TALKIN' TA ME?"
You: "Yeah, teach me how to talk like you."
New Yorker: "Fuck you! FOGEDDABODDIT! Dere.
You: "Hold on, I'm taking notes! I mean fucking notes! Err..."

Profile frame

When you forget to disconnect from your social networking account and a friend of yours writes an inappropriate feed for everyone to see.

I left my facebook account connected yesterday and Mark took the opportunity to post "I like penises" on my wall, I hate it when he profile frames me.

The Professor

When a male fixes the bridge of a pair of glasses to the base of the shaft of his penis and enters an orifice of his partner.

I had a date with this dumb chick and when I took her home, I gave her The Professor.
