Post Convention Depression Disorder

A condition affectiong conventioneers upon returning home. Symptoms include hangover (usually on the 1st day after return from convention) , lack of satisfaction in life because you're not at convention and checking the calendar every day to see how long until the next convention. Sufferers often write inconsequential messages on facebook or texts to other sufferers. This temporarily seems to provide some relief, but the effect doesn't last.

doorknob confession

A doorknob confession is a term used by some clinicians/therapists to define the phenomena of the person receiving therapy, or the client, to divulge something incredibly important or critical in the last few minutes of a therapy session. The content of the "confession" is important enough to cause the session to go on longer than originally planed and may include themes such as: a death in the family, suicidal/self harming thoughts or actions, a relationship crisis, drastic change in living situation, ect.
As she stood to leave the therapist's office she gave the doorknob confession that her sister was being physically abused by their step-father.

The process of turning one into a furry, basically conversion with a spin. A rather unpleasant spin.
Guy #1 - Oh boy, I sure hope I don’t turn into a furry. I really wouldn’t like experiencing conFURsion.
Furry - Well I’ll show you why being a furry is great!
Guy #1 - *is now a furry* wow what a weird coincidence, totally didn’t see that coming

Trenchcoat Convention

When a group of government agents (i.e. FBI, DEA, ATF, etc.) are enacting a search warrant on a premises. So named because of the large amount of agents that wear trenchcoats as part of their attire. Term used more often in colder regions of the country. Can also apply to municipal law enforcement detectives as well.

Conversion Therapy

Because nobody else actually gave a definition, opting instead to give their opinions, here's the definition I found on Wikipedia:
"Conversion therapy is the pseudoscientific practice of trying to change an individual's sexual orientation from homosexual or bisexual to heterosexual using psychological or spiritual interventions."
Conversion Therapy is indeed a form of brainwashing, but people should know the full definition, not just that it's bad.
