Pilsner Proliferation

the annoying tendency for any grocery or convenience store beer case to be 99% filled with different brands of the same bland undrinkable 'American pilsner': Budwieser, Miller, Coors, etc.,with the remaining 1% contaning poor examples of imported beers like Heiniken or corona. Often the only ale offering is
Bass.

I went to the store wanting some DunkelWiesen but was disapointed to find a bad case of Pilsner Proliferation.

Polterstink

(a combination of the word poltergeist and stink): an odor so foul and pungent, that its very scent cannot be simply taken away by destroying what it has seeped into and disposing of the remains, for the very stink has intertwined with time and space itself, therefore, for all eternity, there will always be a faint hint of the stink in that place.

Gary: "Dude, the Dunlap's house finally got bulldozed after everyone complained to the city about the stench, but they're building a new house on the land, so it'll finally start smelling better around here."
Mary: "Nah, I wouldn't trust it. There's probably still a polterstink still lingering."

Diabetes Proliferation Day

AKA (Halloween) Diabetes Proliferation Day (DPD) is the catalyst of a week long candy binge that is engaged in primarily by children. It is encouraged by parents, neighbors, and even teachers; going so far as to bribe children with candy around this time. This day also involves dressing up in costume, but this element is not as important as the fact that kids will consume enough sugar to keep them up for days.

I made out real well this Diabetes Proliferation Day. Not only did I pocket at least 30 kit kats, milky ways and smarties a piece, but my blood sugar level hit an all time high!

password power proliferation

when the software companies make passwords longer than a polynomial.

The password power proliferation made Americans remember more of their passwords than their family members' phone numbers.
