Contractable

A contraction, unlike most contractions, that can be made into another contraction with a contraction.
Shouldn't + can't = shan't

There for, both the words "shouldn't" and "can't", are contractables.

Man, I don't know how to use contractable in a sentence.

triple contraction

a contraction that consists of three different words. Contractions are a combination of multiple words that are put together with apostrophes. But there is a difference between contractions and triple contractions.

regular contraction: don't (do not)
triple contraction: couldn't've (could not have)

(ex for reg.) : Don't do that (do not do that)
(ex for triple) : You couldn't've done that (you could not have done that)

abstinence contract

A contract that parents and the Catholic Church force teenagers to sign, which says that they cannot engage in any sexual activities until marriage. It is stupid, because it goes against the basic laws of nature, and it doesn't work very often, instead it encourages them to have sex even more, but they don't know about birth control, so the girls get pregnant.

Craig: Why did you make me come in here with your girlfriend?

Craig's Mom: Craig, we'd like to talk with you two about something very important. Now that you both are together, we want you to sign this contract. Once you sign this, you will not commit any sexual activities until marriage, and therefore be pure until then, so you won't go to hell.

Craig: What the fuck, mom?! Are you stupid? I'd never sign an abstinence contract! You know I'm an athiest! Stop being such a retard! Sex is not some holy act that can only be done in marriage, it's normal human behavior! (Rips up contract) You make me sick! I wish you weren't so ignorant!

Contraction

A way to combine to perhaps unrelated words in a way that combines their meanings to some capacity and creates a whole new word with a compounded meaning.

A process by which larger things such as phrases or multiple words become smaller, such as a single word.

I combined two existing legitimate words to create a new word with a similar or conjoined meaning. Effective-Applicable Efficable. Contraction of things to become more dense. such as dense meaning or dense information aka Data.

poa constrictor

This is a person who either consciously or unconsciously constricts the spiritual development of others due to treating others and oneself as a mere pile of atoms (see poa). This is a double pun as both a play on the phrase "boa constrictor" and the more subtle pun that such a snake inhibits breathing of the victim. Breath is known in Greek as "pneuma" and is synonymous with "spirit".

She showed herself to be a poa constrictor when she never offered any positive assessment to the fledgling spiritual questions asked by her children.

The Contract

Millennial term for spouse or, generally, marriage. Shows the newly discovered disdain for old institutions like marriage.
Used as a pejorative about other's spouses preventing sexual relations.

I met this hot girl, she seemed to be down for the cause, then at the end of the night she got a text and had to run home to The Contract! Typical!
