Deflection

When politicians come under fire for missteps or failures, they often rely on the technique of trying to shift the focus onto others. In an attempt to duck responsibility, scrutiny, accountability, they often create "scapegoats" to shift blame onto. They try to lay their failures at the feet of others or make a way to justify them. They may try to shift the debate entirely onto a completely irrelevant and different subject. One example is to make a drastic decision that completely shifts focus from the previous subject of scrutiny onto this new drastic change or subject brought into light by the government. Seen commonly by politicians and on a less refined level , regular people supporting a political party or figure in arguments or debates, or as a psychological attempt to manipulate others in regular domestic situations. In politics the tactic is entirely strategic and is arguably one of the most devious and disreputable in the eyes of honest morality and accountability, but is quite common in politics around the world.

When Soviet leaders were questioned about human rights violations in the USSR, for example, they might've come back with, "Well, what about the Negroes that you Americans are lynching in the South?" - One example of a political deflection

Defecation of character

Defecation of character is what happens when someone shits on your name in a public forum.

You: "Oh, man! Brittany just called me a ho on Facebook because I said I liked her crush."

Your friend: "Wow, that's defecation of character."

post-defecation euphoria

The unbridled joy experienced by a domestic house cat following a bowel movement. Often leads to abnormal playfulness and spurts of energy. Humans can experience this phenomenon, but the human response is more internalized.

The cat woke me up last night darting back and forth down the hallway. I'm guessing it was post-defecation euphoria. Can't blame the guy.

defecation hit the oscillation

A more polite way of saying the "shit hits the fan"

When I went in to see 'The Thing', and that guy's head sprouted legs, I knew the defecation hit the oscillation.

Penoral Defication

Penoral defication- is a socially accepted form of pissing.
The word comes from the catholic edited version of the Second testament - Roman soldier to Jesus of Nazareth:"gonna cry? gonna piss your pants maybe? maybe shit and cum?"
Because of vulgarity of the word "piss" theologicians with the help of "minor" assistants came up with the given phrase.

Uncle Balthazar: Hey little Jimmy! Do you want know what Penoral Defication is?
Jimmy in a wheelchair: *drooling*
Uncle Balthazar: *unzips pants* Well you came to the right place! *starts pissing*

defecation-station

Synonymous with "the shitter"-the place in which you defecate, poop, shit, dump, fecal, expel excrement. The only place it is acceptable under social norms for a human being to do this act.

I'll just have to be late to school. Go on ahead without me I've got to hit up the defecation station. My brown is crowning.
