Whipgraft Delusion

The phenomenon in which you catch your reflection in the mirror and get the sense that you're peering into the eyes of a stranger, as if you're looking at a police sketch of your own face aged forward 20 years, which would imply that the real you is out there somewhere, wandering the streets of your old neighborhood, still at large.

When looking into the mirror yesterday, I felt like I had the whipgraft delusion.

optical delusion

When you see things as you want them to be, not as they really are.

That fox is really staring at me, she wants me to know that she wants me. Dude you're under an optical delusion, that's a glare not a stare, and if you go over there, she'll slap you blind.

Delusion of grammar

A diagnosis for when someone uses the wrong word or phrase when speaking but casually continues on as they don't even know they've used it incorrectly or that they've just made a new contribution to the English language. This is usually followed up with the opposite party involved questioning the word/sentence (silently at first to actually appreciate what just took place), but then typically followed up with public ridicule. This is much funnier when its someone in the spotlight. Sarah Palin and George W. Bush are notables who have suffered from this condition.

Sarah Palin on Fox News: "...the President and his wife - you know the First Lady - spoke at NAACP so recently, they have power in their words... They could 'refudiate' what it is this group is saying."
Pundit (silently): "WTF?"
Pundit (silently): "I don't think thats a word, but I better go look that shit up. If I even try to 'refudiate' that without the proper proof, Im going to be the one who gets 'Lynchburged'"
Pundit: "Oh yes, I see your point and totally agree with you (under breath: 'for now...you grammatically delusional bastard')"

George W. Bush: "There's an old saying in Tennessee... I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee... that says, fool me once, shame on ...(pauses)... shame on you. Fool me ...(pauses)... You can't get fooled again."
Listener #1: "Doesn't he mean the old proverb: 'Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice shame on me.' ?"
Listener #2: "Yeah probably, but me must be suffering from a delusion of grammar again."

Colonial Decision

Anything that one does to veer away from something normal. It applies to sibling rivalry or going against peer pressure. It also can mean something that you do that is boldly different.

Cole Sprouse made the colonial decision when he decided to dress like a pilgrim while his bro Dylan kept on the normal teenager path.

game time decision

A decision that is held off until the moment when it must be made. Very commonly used by professional coaches, especially of the NFL.

Reporter: "Will Portis be ready to play by Sunday?"
Coach: "He didn't practice today, but he's feeling better resting each day this week. He'll be a game time decision against the Cowboys."

Dude #1: "Where are we getting our drink on tonight?"
Dude #2: "Who knows. Let's just make it a game time decision."

delusional cockbag

A seemingly intelligent individual whose perception of reality (i.e. value as a human being, ability as a parent or child, importance as a social and moral leader, skills as a lover) is so distorted that no amount of logic, reason, or compassionate pleading can sway them from supporting the Bush administration

My dad has become the king of the delusional cockbags without even trying.
